13 Spring Week in Washington, D.C.

This year’s 2002 Spring Break in Washington, D.C. was memorable. Seven University of Utah students joined with three students from Waseda University in Tokyo, Japan to experience a full week plus of stimulating meetings with promi- nent individuals as well as exploration of historic places and places where federal public policy is made. Together, U of U and Waseda students characterized their week in Washington, D.C., as a “life-changing” experience—a time which impacted their thinking immeasurably. The Spring Week stu- dents had the opportunity to do what Mr. Hinckley had asked of all who become involved in the Hinckley Institute—”to participate” in the governmental and political process.
