A weeklong celebration of the humanities at The University of Arizona will emphasize the role and significance of the field's disciplines.

"Humanities Week," which is sponsored by the UA College of Humanities and the College of Science, begins April 4, and the majority of its events are free and open to the public.

The week of events is meant to explore ways in which crossing the disciplinary divide has enriched and – in some cases – come to anchor scholarship and teaching.

PCOL's Candidate for Peace Corps Director Honduras RPCV Jon Carson, 33, presided over thousands of workers as national field director for the Obama campaign and said the biggest challenge -- and surprise -- was the volume of volunteer help, including more than 15,000 "super volunteers," who were a big part of what made Obama's campaign so successful. PCOL endorses Jon Carson as the man who can revitalize the Peace Corps, bring it into the internet age, and meet Obama's goal of doubling the size of the Peace Corps by 2011.
