Political science student who loves DC
Hi, I’m Colin, a political science student at GW who loves to explore all of what DC has to offer. GW has so many great surprises and opportunities. My first year I found myself taking so many new chances and it has been one of the best decisions I’ve ever made.

Describe your college experience
I came to college with expectations and it has met almost all of them, I’ve found great friends, taken great classes, and had a great time at GW.
Tip for future students
Don’t have a strict plan you feel like you need to follow, sometimes things you never consider reveal themselves to you, don’t let your plans stop you from trying something you might enjoy.
Favorite class
International Security Politics, I found the course material extremely relevant and interesting, allowing me to learn a lot about real world function.
Career goals
I hope to go to law school after graduating.
Ideal way to spend a free night
The best way to spend a free night is exploring the city with friends, DC has so much to offer and it is very nice to get to see everything.
High school or secondary school

Favorite spot on campus
Kogan Plaza, it is a nice outdoor place to study, and close to the library if I need to move indoors
