Students Inside Albany (SIA) Experience May 18-21, 2025
Nominations of Tompkins County high school juniors and seniors are sought for the 25th annual Students Inside Albany conference, which is scheduled to be held May 18-21, 2025, in Albany. The conference, sponsored by the League of Women Voters of New York State Education Foundation, Inc., is designed to increase students’ awareness of their responsibility in a representative government and provide the tools necessary for meeting that responsibility. This interactive conference will bring together high school students from across the state to learn about New York State government and the process by which citizens can participate in the policy making arena. As part of this program, students will also tour the Capitol and observe both the Senate and Assembly in action by spending an afternoon shadowing their legislators.
Students are sponsored by one of the 42 local League of Women Voters throughout New York State; all their expenses are covered, including travel and three nights at a hotel in downtown Albany. The participants will receive a student membership in the League of Women Voters of Tompkins County which includes an e-mail newsletter and invitations to meetings on government related topics.
