Does anyone have any experience with/thoughts on AmeriCorps? I'm considering doing a year after I graduate?

Not sure about Americorp but my nephew leaves with Peace Corp in a few days. He says the interview process has been very positive with many mentors along the way. If Americorp is similar, sounds like something to pursue.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
