Program for American Institutional Renewal (PAIR) Indianapolis Statehouse Trip
Thursday, 10/15, 9 A.M - 5 P.M.
The Program for American Institutional Renewal (PAIR) is hosting its annual day-long trip to Indianapolis. During the trip, students tour the Statehouse, meet with officials from each branch of Indiana government, and, crucially, enjoy a luncheon with the state legislature's intern directors. Students also meet with key public figures and Purdue alumni who share their experiences in and around government—and what a career in public service can look like. This is your chance to meet directly with internship coordinators across state government. Our goal is to better pipeline students into public service who have been trained through PAIR's programming and courses!
