Connor Mojo, a Coastal Carolina University senior with a double major in political science and history, has received a Hudson Institute Political Studies Summer Fellowship. The fellowship, designed to broaden and deepen the understanding of public policy and American political principles, will be held in Washington, D.C., from June 17 to July 26.

“I feel greatly humbled and honored to receive such an incredible opportunity from the Hudson Institute,” said Mojo. “To study and discuss some of the fundamental questions of politics among the best scholars in the field is a truly indispensable experience – especially since I plan on entering a Ph.D. program in political theory after graduation. I cannot wait to get started.”

The program includes rigorous seminars led by master teachers on topics in political theory and public policy; a distinguished speaker series with leaders from government, business, journalism, the military, and the academy; policy workshops led by policy analysts and experienced government officials; and excursions to places of national and historical interest, allowing students to view politics through other lenses.
