University of Chicago Leads In Peace Corps Admissions
Students top Peace Corps' volunteer rolls, serve across the globe
The Peace Corps has recently released statistics that show Chicago ranks No. 1 among institutions with undergraduate populations of fewer than 5,000 in the number of alumni who volunteer for the corps.For the second year in a row, Chicago has pushed to the top of the Peace Corps' annual list of smaller colleges and universities, with a total of 39 College alumni joining last year.
In my years as a volunteer with Peace Corps Morocco, we had one person from the University of Chicago. I did not go to Chicago until after I returned to the States. For different reasons, they were two of the best decisions I ever made. (I met my wife at Chicago.)
