Students participating in the Hamilton Program in Washington recently toured the Pentagon, led by Hamilton alumnus Brian Burns '03 who works at the Department of Defense. Created in 1969, the Hamilton Program in Washington provides a combination of academic study and experience in national government. The students in the program conduct research and attend two seminars led by a resident member of Hamilton's government department, and at the same time are working full time in congressional or executive offices. Students also participate in other activities, such as the Pentagon tour, that help them gain insight into a career in Washington.
