What I liked
I loved working together with the other Fellows to build a summer campaign for tuition-free college. I also loved discussing and experiencing the intersection of social justice and politics.
What I wish was different
Not much. If I had to change something, I would have liked to have learned more about the software we used to contact voters.
Advice
Be prepared for some long, yet rewarding days. The practice of politics is not always fun or easy, but I enjoyed learning about the nitty gritty details of running and planning a campaign.
