Washington D.C.

Every year, a student trip to Washington D.C. is hosted by OPSS. The following sites are only a sample of the many tourist hot spots the students are given a chance to experience.

Famous museums such as the US Holocaust Memorial Museum  and the Smithsonian National Museum of National History offer students an amazing opportunity to learn more about important events in history.

And last but not least, historical sites such as the National Archives, the Lincoln Memorial, and the World War II Memorial are essential visiting sites for any student interested in US politics.

The next trip will be scheduled for next year's second term, most likely around either late January or late February. Unfortunately, spaces are limited, and if there is an overabundance of candidates for the trip, members considered to have contributed the most to the club will be selected ahead of others. Thus, it's highly recommended that those who wish to attend the trip start attending the club's events and socials as early as possible!
