The Woodrow Wilson Presidential Library unveiled a new World War I exhibit Thursday.

This exhibit has been in the works for a year, and the new section of the museum gives visitors a look at what it was like for soldiers to be in the trenches during the war.

After a slow winter, museum officials are hoping the new exhibit will give them a boost this spring.

Jarod Kearney, from WWPL says, "I think this brings us up to the next level, museum wise. We expect a good jump in visitors, and it applies to a range of visitors. older, younger, high school, all ages."

Wilson served as the 28th President of the United States, from 1913 to 1921, during the first World War.

WHSV Poll
A committee in the House of Delegates has sent a bill to the House floor that would allow private, faith-based adoption agencies to discriminate against prospective parents based on their sexual orientation. Would you support this?

Yes, I think if it is a private organization it's okay.
No, there should be no discrimination.
It should depend on a case by case basis.
