WASHINGTON, D.C. – U.S. Sen. Sherrod Brown (D-OH) this week met with The Ohio State University (OSU) students and Franklin County natives interning in Washington, D.C. this summer through OSU’s John Glenn Fellows program. The students attended Brown’s weekly coffee with constituents in Washington, D.C.

“It was an honor to meet with these John Glenn Fellows,” Brown said. “These bright young students exemplify the intelligence and drive fostered at Ohio colleges and universities.”

The students from Franklin County included:

  • Catherine Elliot of Columbus
  • Emma Hedges of Columbus
  • Neal Hooker of Columbus
  • Max Wright of Columbus

John Glenn Fellows are The Ohio State University undergraduates chosen to participate in the university’s Washington Academic Internship Program. Fellows spend a semester in Washington, D.C. exploring public policy in their individual academic interest areas. Participants receive academic credit for completion of an internship, a policymaking and public service course, and a policy paper developed through a research seminar. The Washington Academic Internship Program is run by OSU’s John Glenn College of Public Affairs and is open to all majors.
