I would like to echo many of the sentiments that have been posted already and say that what is gained from this experience goes deeper than politics and beliefs, conservative and liberal, views and opinions; it is the knowledge that you can have your own opinions and they will be respected by all. The knowledge that for once in your life at least you will be accepted, completely, for who you are. That you will learn, both in the classroom and out, and those lessons will stay with you forever. And those lessons, like most other things at Governor’s school, can be applied to everything, universally, and will stay with you for the rest of your life.
