Living Learning Community
Governmental Relations Network
Discover ways to have meaningful and immediate involvement in local, state, and federal government. In conjunction with the Office of Institutional Relations, this interdisciplinary community exposes students to a variety of career and volunteer opportunities in areas related to government. Through mentoring and focused experiences, students who live in this community will examine how an individual can impact government and how government can impact an individual both inside and outside of the classroom.
Examples of programming activities include the following:
- Networking with individuals who not only work in the field of government (local, state and federal), but also work in the private sector and interact with government institutions (urban planners, journalist, university administrators)
- Mentoring program that exposes community members to internship opportunities, graduate school possibilities, and career options
- Annual visits to the U.S. Capitol, the Ohio State House, and other relevant government sites
