"I am currently an intern for the Office of the City Manager of the City of Dublin. This experience has been incredibly valuable to me, providing me with endless opportunities to experience and interact with political professionals and elected leaders of the Dublin community. I have gained experience researching, tracking legislation and grants, and working in a local government setting, all experiences I have yet to encounter in my traditional coursework as a Bachelor of Arts political science student. The team I work under is overwhelmingly supportive, guiding me to contribute as much as I can in meaningful ways. I have found my experience interning for the City of Dublin extremely rewarding and complementary to my education at Ohio State." - Alexis Wade (Class of 2026)
