Wow! Where has the time gone? It seems only yesterday that our group was just a gathering of strangers with similar interests. Though we were asked to keep our political affiliations secret, the curiosity I once had has dissipated into a sense of fellowship and unity. Now, time to exchange my toga for some flip flops and tell you, esteemed reader, about our day.

For the last of our field trips, we traveled Richmond, the heart and seat of Virginian politics. Being from Alexandria, I was amazed at the lack of traffic during rush hour. While I marveled at this occurrence, we pulled up to our first stop, the Virginia General Assembly.

Today was quite exciting for the College Leaders Program. We got to spend the whole day in Washington, D.C.! The morning air was cool and crisp as we all boarded our charter bus at 7 a.m. once again. About 2 hours later, we hit the famous Northern Virginia morning traffic. As we crept along I-66, members of the class debated about Virginia transportation problems, and some bets were even made on how long the traffic jam would last.
