Semester in D.C.

In 1969 the Semester in Washington Program was established as part of the Government program at Hamilton College. The program consists of internships in federal, legislative, and executive offices, as well as a regular seminar program and an independent research project. Although the program is generally intended for Juniors, both Seniors and Sophomores are eligible, and non-government majors can also participate.

A Hamilton professor accompanies the students to D.C. to teach the seminar and serve as their advisor throughout the semester. Students are responsible for finding their own internship.
