A Week of Learning: Understanding American Government

 
Dust off your old civics textbook and get ready to discover how American government works with a hands-on visit to Washington D.C. You will meet with notable politicians, government officials, lobbyists, political action committees and scholars about the ins and outs of our democracy. This program focuses on several important, current issues and the various forces affecting them. Plus, you will tour prominent cultural sites and monuments in our national capitol, as well as attend a performance at the Kennedy Center. Accommodations will be at the Bolger Conference Center in nearby Potomac, Maryland. Daily breakfast, lunch and some dinners are included.
