Noshing with Notables provides an opportunity for George Washington University students to meet and engage with successful policy practitioners in an informal setting over lunch. Our "Notables" are public policy experts from the government, private sector, academia and non-profit entities.
The George Washington University Regulatory Studies Center aims to raise awareness of regulations effects and improve regulatory policy through research, education, and outreach.
