-
We encourage the nomination of students who will return to campus the following semester and convey their experience to their fellow students.
- For the National Political Convention seminars, students do not need to be affiliated with a particular party to appreciate the experience of the seminar. Students are placed in both partisan and nonpartisan placements for their individual fieldwork assignments.
- We encourage the consideration of diversity in your selection process.
