Hello
My name is Phil Hayes and I am the new Peace Corps UW Campus Representative and also am a Returned Peace Corps Volunteer (Morocco 08-10). I was hoping to have an opportunity to let your students know about opportunities to work internationally with the Peace Corps. The best way we've found to target students has been through short presentations. Myself and a Seattle Regional Recruiter will be doing class presentations on campus from Oct 18th-20th. These will only take about 5-10 minutes and will consist of a general overview of Peace Corps, what we do and where we are, and also the benefits of serving. These short presentations can take place at the beginning or end of class, whichever is most convenient.
We are currently in much need of internationally minded applicants with a background in engineering who have an interest in living and working in the developing world. Throughout Peace Corps’ 50 year history the University of Washington has been a strong source for quality volunteers. We are hoping to continue that legacy.
If you are interested in having me come and speak with your class(es) please contact me directly. Thank you for your consideration and support and I look forward to hearing from you.
Additionally, there is an amazing event happening on campus this Tuesday Oct 4th where over 25 people from all over the world who have worked with Peace Corps will be doing a presentation on international volunteerism. All are welcome to attend. http://www.world-affairs.org/events/2011/10/04/spirit-volunteerism
