GU Politics Trips
Each year, we organize trips to visit party conventions, caucuses, national and international elections, and more. We give students backstage access to gain valuable insights into how politics gets done. All they have to do in return is tell their story for the rest of us back on the Hilltop! Check out the videos below to learn more about how our students are experiencing politics in action.

This summer we took students to the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee! Our students experienced the convention behind-the-scenes, networked with campaign operatives and surrogates, witnessed media professionals in action and gained hands-on political experience.
2024 DNC Convention Trip
We just returned from the Democratic National Convention in Chicago! Our students had an unparalleled opportunity to experience the convention behind-the-scenes, network with campaign operatives and surrogates and witness media professionals in action.
