\"\"<\/a>My name is Hugh Hudson and I am a Junior at the University of Wisconsin – Madison. I am originally from Monterey, California, so yes, the Midwest cold was a bit of a shock to experience for the first time.\u00a0I am studying abroad for\u00a0my Junior year at UW, having come\u00a0to Washington D.C. this fall semester through the University of Wisconsin \u2013 Madison\u2019s Washington program<\/strong>, and am excited to\u00a0be going to Bonn, Germany in the spring.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

This fall, I am interning at Capstone National Partners –\u00a0a lobbying firm on Capitol Hill<\/strong>. It was not my original intention to intern at a lobbying firm, but I am happy to have had an opportunity to do so and learn about the fundamentals of government and private sector relations. At Capstone, I have had the opportunity to work on research and proposals to secure funding for a research vessel for the University of Wisconsin system, as well as organizing events between an organization of former House\u00a0chiefs of staff\u00a0and\u00a0Embassies in D.C.<\/strong><\/p>\n

I could not be happier with where I am living with WISH. The location, proximity, and living quarters itself\u00a0could not be more ideal to\u00a0me.\u00a0I am currently living in a townhouse less than a block away from the Supreme Court with nine other students in similar programs.<\/strong><\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Living in a shared-style townhouse has been amazing to meet other students from around the country and\u00a0hear their different perspectives, all under the same roof.<\/strong> I still find it hard to believe that, even with a college budget, I am living in the heart of the neighborhood with\u00a0Senators, Congressmen, Ambassadors, and high-ranking officials only a few doors down.<\/strong> I walked out of my WISH house yesterday to see\u00a0Madeline Albright walking down the sidewalk!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I absolutely love living with WISH\u00a0while\u00a0working here in DC, and I am not looking forward to saying goodbye\u00a0at the end of this program\u00a0to my new friends and the best living situation I will have in DC for some certainly of time.<\/p>\n
