The Peace Corps is looking for motivated students to fill HUNDREDS of positions in education, youth development, agriculture, forestry, the environment, business, information technology, health and HIV/AIDS education. The Peace Corps offers an unparalleled opportunity to work overseas for two years in one of more than 70 countries worldwide, while advancing your skills, learning another language and making a difference in the lives of others.

In addition, Peace Corps volunteers receive a living allowance, medical and dental care, transportation to and from their country of service, vacation leave and a $6,075 cash award when they finish. There are also opportunities to combine graduate school with Peace Corps service, and student loans can be deferred.

Visit the Peace Corps Web site to learn more, or stop by the Anchorage REI on Tuesday, April 21, at 6 p.m. to talk with Peace Corps Regional Manager Eileen Conoboy and learn how to start your international career.
