Live and Learn in DC

Engineering and computer science are rigorous academic programs, and SEAS students spend untold hours studying for their courses, but when they do have free time, they love to explore Washington, DC, and “live and learn” in their home away from home.

With DC as a backdrop, students explore:

arts & culture
attractions
embassies
US Capitol and White House
monuments & memorials
museums
theater
waterfront activities

We polled our SEAS student mentors and learned some of their favorite DC activities:

running on the National Mall
touring the Monuments
visiting the Tidal Basin
going to Georgetown restaurants and, particularly, Georgetown Cupcakes
hiking, biking, and rock climbing on the weekends
taking pictures of DC
