Holly Bull, president of the Center for Interim Programs, was recently interviewed about the gap year option by college counselors, Eric Furda (William Penn Charter School) and Eileen Feikens (Dwight-Englewood School), for their show "The Process" on Sirius XM Business Radio, Channel 132. This 79th show will run on weekends this month - 4 pm ET this Saturday - and they did a terrific job asking thoughtful questions for their listeners!

Happy holidays, everyone!
