The DRSS-1 team of the DRSS Junior Council on World Affairs Team, also known as "JAWS COMET" (an anagram for "STEM JCOWA") placed first in the region in 2015 for the second year in a row. This earned them a spot at the national Council on World Affairs Academic WorldQuest Competition, which takes place annually at Georgetown University.

The students did not place at the national competition, but they had a great trip and visited the European Union Ambassador's official residence, as well as many famous Washington D.C. stops.

| The group met with EU Ambassador David O'Sullivan after hearing him speak and having time to ask him questions about the relationship between the US and the EU. |

The group would like to thank the sponsors of the trip - the Dayton Council on World Affairs and Wright State University's College of Liberal Arts.
