ANNUAL REPORT
PERKINS BASS VISITORSHIP
During his January 2013 public lecture, Lynch’s message was clear:
bipartisanship and support for small businesses are necessary
components of good governance. Lynch encouraged policymakers
to reach across the aisle when crafting laws. A former
businessman, Lynch emphasized the importance of fostering a
business-friendly environment in New Hampshire to provide local
citizens with jobs. Lynch was introduced by Perkins Bass’ son,
Charles Bass ’74, who served seven terms in the U.S. House as a
representative of New Hampshire.
Lynch’s class discussions were comprehensive, covering a range
of subjects – from healthcare to the role of the media. Lynch
described his time at Dartmouth as a “worthwhile experience.”
John Lynch, former Governor of New Hampshire, was the

Founded in 2005, the PRS has grown under
the leadership of Professor Ronald G. Shaiko,
the Center’s Senior Fellow and Associate
Director of Curricular Programs, into a
year-round research institute that now
engages more than 50 students a year on
20 policy briefs. Students learn valuable
research skills in a context that allows
them to make an immediate impact on
public policy. Just as importantly, the
students’ research is regularly utilized by
state legislators and other policymakers in
Vermont and New Hampshire.
The Policy Research Shop was featured as
an example of a high-impact engagement
opportunity for students in a recent Chronicle
of Higher Education article, “Undergraduate
Research Gets Real in Public Policy
Programs.” Given the success of the PRS,
Professor Shaiko has begun sharing the
model of an undergraduate policy research
institution with other American colleges
and universities.
“As more colleges look to expand
research opportunities for
undergraduates, Dartmouth’s [Policy
Research] Shop offers one model for
linking learning with public service.”
~ Libby Sander,
The Chronicle of Higher Education
“I have worked with Policy Research
Shop students during my seven
years in office. They have uniformly
impressed supporters and opponents
of particular issues with the scope
and depth of their analyses.”
~ David Pierce, New Hampshire
State Senator
More than 200 students have participated in the PRS, many describing their
involvement as a highlight of their Dartmouth experience. One student featured in
the Chronicle article, Richard D’Amato ’13, noted that his participation in the PRS
gave him the opportunity to gain practical, rewarding, and hands-on experience.

White House internship
Since 2008, more than a dozen Dartmouth
students have participated in the White
House Internship Program, with many more sure to join their ranks. These
particular internship opportunities are examples of the hands-on student
experiences that the Center supports with advising, pre-internship trainings, and
funding. You can see lists of current and former funded interns at the Rockefeller
Center’s website.

Following their own White House internships, Brandon DeBot ’14 and Lindsay
Brewer ’13 wanted to give back to the Dartmouth community, particularly to
students passionate about public service. As a result, DeBot and Brewer teamed
up with the Rockefeller Center to host this information session for students
interested in the White House Internship Program. During the fall of 2012,
DeBot worked for the National Economic Council, the agency responsible for
coordinating domestic and international economic policymaking, and Brewer
worked for the Office of the Vice President.
DeBot and Brewer offered advice on
each step of the application process—
from soliciting strong recommendation
letters to structuring answers to the
essay questions—and described their
experiences at the NEC and Office of the
Vice President. Both students discussed
their personal interest in the White House
Internship Program and emphasized the
opportunity to learn about politics and
policy firsthand.
