I was a member of the John Glenn Civic Leadership Community for my first year. The community really helped me get to know the John Glenn College and the students and faculty in it. At the beginning of the semester we took a tour of John Glenn’s childhood home and learned more about the namesake of our college. We also heard from several faculty guest speakers who gave lectures on different policy topics, such as food and space. I also had a community of about 20 others who were interested in public policy and it was great to start college with this community. Participating in the community definitely made me feel more connected to the Glenn College and deepen my interest in public affairs. Unfortunately the spring trip to Washington DC had to be cancelled due to COVID-19.
