ALUMNI
Submitted: 05-23-2007     Name:Kelsey KarshHometown: Department: History
News:Well, a big change in my plans, I signed up for the Peace Corps, and am going to western Africa in Sept. So, I'm currently studying french like a mad woman, which is a language I never thought, or really wanted to study. But I am excited for whatever direction this experience will bring me, it will be very different that's for sure. I started volunteering at Life Long Aids alliance in Seattle several months ago and became more passionate about AIDS in general, which prompted me to apply for the Peace Corps, and subsequently go to Africa. I still really want to go back to South America, perhaps after the pc. I kind of want to go everywhere, so I need to figure out how to make that happen. My tentative plan is to get my masters after the peace corps, but as of now I have no idea what that will be in...time will tell I suppose. In Seattle I'm still working in Social Services,which I like...but is hard work for little pay-which is also what the peace corps will be.
