[PAST EVENT] Network with Students at the Washington Center this Summer
As part of the D.C. Summer Session program, students spend one week in person at the Washington Center visiting sites around D.C. and learning from professionals who are pursuing careers related to their course. As part of this program, we provide students with the opportunity to network with folks that have professional experiences related to what students are studying in their course. This event allows students to practice their networking skills and these conversations will focus on your career start and path thus far, industry experience, and lessons you've learned along the way.
This networking session will be with students taking a course called The History of Washington, DC: Promise and Paradox which focuses on the Washington D.C.’s residents, economy, and culture beginning with the Civil War and Emancipation to examine how and why Washington the city has so often stood in contradiction to the ideals and promise of Washington the Nation’s Capital.
The networking reception is casual, low pressure way for you and students to connect. Heavy hors d'oeuvres and drinks will also be provided!
