It’s always great to hear what our graduates have been up to and where a History with Politics degree from the Â鶹´«Ã½ can take you. Emma Montague (Class of 2018) tells us about her recent experience working for Senator Maria Cantwell from Washington on her re- election campaign.
Emma said:
"Following graduation, I worked as a field organizer for U.S Senator Maria Cantwell's re-election campaign, where I recruited and managed volunteers, planned events, and spoke to constituents on a daily basis. Not long after Senator Cantwell won the election, I was selected for the legislative internship in her DC office. As a legislative intern, I assisted in researching bills, attending briefings and writing memos for staff members, giving tours, and I served as the first point of contact for the office. Being a part of the legislative and administrative process, at the epicenter of government and history for the United States, has been both educational and thrilling."
