GSEHD PRIME (Partnerships + Relationships = International Meaningful Experiences) builds professional connections and friendships between GSEHD's international and domestic students. It is a support network to help international students transition to DC and life as a graduate student, while at the same time providing domestic students the opportunity to learn about other cultures, explore DC, and connect to the GSEHD community.

TRAiLS stands for "Teaching Recreation and Adventure incorporating Leadership and Service." We are a group of students serving the GW community by planning and leading outdoor adventure trips throughout the year. As a departmental organization in the CSE, GW TRAiLS is a private, non-profit learning institution that is run by GW students.
Our volunteer student guides are selected to lead a variety of outdoor adventure trips, ranging from week-long backpacking trips to day hikes and apple picking. Guides commit countless volunteer hours every week to plan, execute and lead these trips. The "S" in TRAiLS stands for service, so when not leading trips for other students, we work on service projects in the DC area. GW TRAiLS guides share a fervent passion for the outdoors as well as an interest in serving the community through leadership and service.
This student group meets regularly to practice public speaking. International students are very welcome!
