For the first time since its inception in 2018, Mount Holyoke’s annual Semester in D.C. program is taking place in-person during a presidential election year. While Mount Holyoke College students on campus may have experienced election night through a college-sponsored watch party or on laptop screens in dorm rooms, a select group of students currently completing the program were able to witness former president Donald Trump’s reelection and its aftermath as it unfolded in the heart of the United States capital.
