Retired Supreme Court Justice Sandra Day O'Connor outlined her big idea on the first day of the festival: that young people will become engaged in civics and public life. She is working with a team including MacArthur Foundation to develop innovative online and computer games to explain government and civics to young people. Hosted by the Aspen Institute, The 2008 Aspen Ideas Festival will engage its participants in a variety of programs, tutorials, seminars and discussion events which together are guaranteed to charge the atmosphere with vibrant intellectual exchange. Think of it as a week-long summer university for the mind -- remarkable lectures and classes across a stimulating array of topics.
