The attached Peace Corps announcement may be of interest to some
members of the list. This posting may duplicate an earlier dis-
patch. If so, please accept my apologies. I have reorganized the
original announcement, and am trying to get the word out to
relevant discussion lists. Please feel free to forward this

FIRST CALL FOR 1996 PEACE CORPS VOLUNTEERS
*****************************************************************
Greetings from the Peace Corps. I am the Manager of the Peace
Corps Recruiting Office in San Francisco. I would like to take
this opportunity to spread the word about Peace Corps Volunteer
assignments to members of this list who would like to be Volun-
teers, or who could serve as references to others who might be
interested.
We now have requests for 1800 Volunteers for assignments which
start in April, May and June, 1996. Since these assignment dates
are a bit too early for June 1996 college graduates, we are now
seeking to contact individuals who will graduate in June or
December 1995, and who may still be available for early/mid-1996
assignment with the Peace Corps. We are also actively seeking
volunteers who may have graduated some time ago.
If you are one of the above (or if you know someone who is), I
want to inform you that we have an interesting, valuable assign-
ment for you in one of 94 countries around the world - China,
former Soviet Union, Central and Eastern Europe, Latin America,
Africa, and the Pacific region.
The 1800 assignments cluster in 7 broad areas:
Education - 750
Business - 350
Environment/Forestry - 150
Food Production - 150
Health - 150
Community Service - 130
Urban Plng/Const/Eng/Skilled Trades 120
All details are available from your local recruiting office by
calling 1-800-424-8580, then press 1 at the prompt. If you want
to talk with me about Peace Corps opportunities, I would be
pleased to do so.
Thanks in advance for your interest and consideration. Please
feel free to contact me if you have questions.

Manager, San Francisco Office
