Recently, from April 9-11, Anjali Shankar '23, Ellie Capobianco '23, and Joey Oltman '24 participated in Rutgers' virtual Model Congress Conference.

Each of the students served on a committee that included the Coronavirus Recovery Council, the DC Mayor's Office, and the US Supreme Court. The issues discussed challenged the delegates to think beyond party lines and beyond what has been done in the past to develop solutions to complex issues. Overall, the students gained valuable experience as delegates studying domestic affairs and had a lot of fun in the process!
