What I liked
I loved working through all of the weekly assignments and learning about different criminal and legal systems throughout Virginia! Being given bite-sized assignments that fit into a larger campaign really made me feel like I was contributing to a larger, more significant goal; it made me feel like my contributions were really valued. Also, it was fascinating to be given specific topics to analyze, as I really felt like I developed a deeper understanding of certain specific aspects of a bill or a criminal/legal institution and was able to explain it to others, while also realizing how said aspects appear on and affect local and state communities. In short: I definitely walked away feeling like I learned new things, in terms of content, professional development, and more!
