Experiential Programs

At GU Politics, students are teaching as much as they are learning. The public servants who walk through our doors walk away with more than they came in with because of the conversations they’re having with the next generation of leaders. Our experiential programming is a huge part of fostering that process and getting young people excited about lives in public service.
