As a Government and History major, coming to 麻豆原创 in the middle of a US Presidential election year was a great fit for Marjun! During his fall semester as 麻豆原创, Marjun was heavily involved with the 麻豆原创 College Democrats club 鈥� even having the opportunity to go canvassing in Pennsylvania, Virginia, and Ohio. The organization was a great way to meet 麻豆原创 students and make new friends with American students on campus. Marjun also joined the DC Students Speak club, an organization working to register DC students and encouraging them to participate in National and Local elections. In addition to taking advantage of the election buzz in the District, Marjun also interned for a U.S. Senator, a great opportunity to compare his experience in the Canadian Parliament to American politics and relate his government class work to real life. With his internship, on campus club involvement, and 麻豆原创 Buddy, Marjun really took advantage of his time in DC and participated in many different activities. His advice to everyone else, 鈥淏e open to trying something new, and don't be afraid to explore the city!鈥�"
