Congratulations to Political Science and Justice Studies major, Class of 2026, Gwendolyn Hanrahan. After a strong nomination by UNH political science Professor Susan Siggelakis, she has been selected to represent New Hampshire at the Henry Clay Center’s College Student Congress for two weeks this May. This program is a transformative two-week summer experience tailored for undergraduates, meticulously designed to cultivate essential personal character skills vital for future leaders in the realms of public policy, politics, diplomacy, and contemporary leadership. The summer program in public policy selects fifty-one rising college seniors, representing each state and the District of Columbia, to learn about the dynamics of the policy process through an experiential and immersive curriculum. Students engage with lawmakers, academics, government relations experts, policy advisors and other leaders to explore the challenges of formulating comprehensive public policy. It is hosted jointly on the campuses of The University of Kentucky in Lexington and American University in Washington, D.C. We are so proud of you, Gwen!
