The Kentucky Wesleyan College Office of Equity and Inclusion concluded Winter Break with an Alternative Break trip to Washington, D.C. Led by Office of Equity and Inclusion Coordinator Lori Thurman, seven students, including Te’Asia Calhoun ’27, participated in a week-long expedition that combined cultural exploration, service, and personal reflection.
The trip gave students the chance to visit iconic landmarks, including the Washington, Lincoln, and Martin Luther King Jr. memorials, the Capitol Building, Library of Congress, Supreme Court, and the White House.
