· Speakers from government, academia, the military and journalism;
· Events from a visit to the National Archives to a trip to the National Gallery of Art that complement our course of study.
· A mentorship program to help students navigate next steps towards their professional goals.
Students participate free of charge, are given complimentary housing and we provide a stipend of $3,000 to offset travel food and other ancillary costs. More details can be found at www.hudsonpoliticalstudies.org
