William & Mary’s academic offerings in the W&M Washington Center are taking off with the addition of a spring break seminar opportunity beginning in March 2017. The first course in that seminar, Foreign Policy: International Development, Security and Commerce, will take advantage of the abundant range of speakers and site visits available in the Washington, D.C., area, and explore topics such as the 2016 presidential election, the allocation of World Bank aid, the role of journalism in policy debates, the affect of interagency process on issues like climate change, and the reasoning behind America’s cooperative nuclear agreement with Iran.
