Hillary Rodham then entered Wellesley College, an elite woman's college near Boston, and seemingly a Republican activist.  During the summer of 1968, she participated in Wellesley's Washington Internship Program where she worked as an intern in the office of [[Melvin Laird]], then a congressman from Wisconsin, and attended the Republican convention in Miami as a [[Nelson Rockefeller]] supporter; Rockefeller would eventually lose the nomination to [[Richard Nixon]].  She was the commencement speaker at her graduation from Wellesley in 1969, during which she argued forcefully against the war in Vietnam and said, "And the challenge now is to practice politics as the art of making what appears to be impossible, possible." In her speech, she also acknowledged the influence of her roomate and friend Eleanor D. Acheson in helping Hillary become the first student in Wellesley College history to deliver its commencement address.<ref name="WesleyHillary">{{Cite web
