History
In the early '60s, Josh Miner worked with Kurt Hahn at Gourdstown. When he returned to the states and came to Andover (as a faculty member and Director of Admission) Josh and Headmaster John Kemper invented what became Phillips Academy's S&R in order to implement some of Hahn's ideas at this independent school.
The concept of experiential learning was so successful that Miner and Kemper founded several of the first Outward Bound centers.
