[Excerpt]

Beth Haskovec will be leaving next year to pursue a masters degree in sustainable development at the School for International Training in Brattleboro, Vermont. Haskovec has been area coordinator for Towers for the past year.

"My position has been an excellent opportunity for me to transition back to American culture after two years in the Peace Corps in Romania," Haskovec said. "I have had the chance to meet and work with wonderful student leaders and residents."

Haskovec, who has a passion for community service and volunteer work, was grateful for the opportunities she had to discuss and share her passion with many students and student groups on campus. Kristi Leonard, Farwell/Baker area coordinator for a record five years also hinted that she might be leaving.

Tony Hall found the pope to be courageous and capable of forgiving the man who shot him in 1981, Mark Gearan said the pope was as dynamic in person as he appears on television, Maria Shriver said he was a beacon of virtue, strength and goodness, and an RPCV who met the pope while serving in the Solomon Islands said he possessed the holiness of a man filled with a deep love and concern for humanity.

Friends of the Peace Corps 170,000  strong Date: April 2 2005 No: 543 Friends of the Peace Corps 170,000 strong
170,000 is a very special number for the RPCV community - it's the number of Volunteers who have served in the Peace Corps since 1961. It's also a number that is very special to us because March is the first month since our founding in January, 2001 that our readership has exceeded 170,000. And while we know that not everyone who comes to this site is an RPCV, they are all "Friends of the Peace Corps." Thanks everybody for making PCOL your source of news for the Returned Volunteer community.
