History and Political Science

Students in the Department of History and Political Science have more and more opportunities to travel and study across the country and around the world through our department.

History and Political Science students currently travel every year to Washington, D.C. to participate in the National Association of Evangelicals student leadership conference where we are the largest delegation of students! In May of 2025 our students will also be traveling to England for two weeks as a part of immersive coursework in British history.

We are committed to providing these life changing experiences that open national and international doors for our students and place Olivet at the forefront on National and International student engagement.

But, there are many of our students who are academically gifted and who would highly benefit from these travel opportunities, yet they and their families do not have the financial resources to participate.

Our goal is to start and grow a dedicated scholarship fund to help worthy students afford these incredible opportunities. No Olivet student should be kept from participating in what our Department offers due to financial limitations.

Help us help every History and Political Science student engage in immersive learning across America and around the World.

Thank you for being ALL IN for Olivet on Day of Giving!

*If we fall short of our fundraising goal, we will apply any raised funds toward our budget.
