☆ENGLISH ONLY☆コミュの<Peace Corps>Best Places to Launch a Career 2007

My name is Shuntaro and I have studied in Oregon since last august.
I was just wondering if someone has any idea about the reasons why the popularity of Peace Corps for graduates of universities has been increasing dramatically.

I read this article at first that the stream of the job placement in America has changed these days.
It says the graduates of universities are getting more interested in the social contribution rather than just earning a lot of money.

Do you think it is true that they are getting more interestend in social contirbution?Why or Why not??
Do you have any ideas why this sudden increase happened between 2006 and 2007??
I asked this question to my friends from America but they all didnt know the reasons...

I am so curious about the reasons because I am very interested in the movement of social enterprises and NPO in these days. I will appreciate your help!!
Thanks for reading this topic.

It is common knowledge that the world is in a lot of trouble. People are starting to want to make a difference. They want to try and help make this a better place to live. And working in the Peace Corps is one very good way to do that. Young trained people coming to the aid of the planet. That is a good sign.
