Course Description
Course information provided by the Courses of Study 2024-2025.
This course is part of the Brooks School Capital Semester Program. During this program, students live and work in Albany as legislative aides to a New York State Senator or Assembly Member. They also attend a course on New York State Government and engage in discussion forums with key legislators and policymakers. Additionally, students receive mentorship from Cornell Government Affairs staff on-site. This mentorship includes opportunities to work on legislative priorities that align with students' interests and their assigned legislative tasks. The on-site staff help interns connect with state government officials in their areas of interest, including Cornell alumni and dignitaries. They also offer guidance on office work and internship coursework and provide background information on Albany's policies and politics, particularly related to higher education and Cornell's role as a New York State Land Grant University. Students receive a relocation allowance and a living stipend as part of the program.
