Your life. Our future." So goes the motto of America's first national teacher corps, Teach for America. The organization has a very straightforward pur- pose: To ask America's most astute college gradu- ates to put their plans for medical school, graduate school or the corporate world on hold for two years - and teach elementary, middle and high school. If Teach for America recruiter Danny Morris has his way, he will get a fair number of University students excited about the notion when he visits campus Nov. 6. "The Teach for America mission is to build a diverse corps of recent graduates to serve needy schools and to be advocates for education," Morris said. Teach for America, established in 1990, was the brainchild of a thesis paper written by founder Wendy Kopp while she was a senior at Princeton in 1989. Concerned with the dearth of college stu- dents seriously considering the teaching profes- sion, Kopp wanted to address the teacher shortages experienced in many inner-city and rural-area challenging and extremely rewarding," she said. school districts.

Eight years later, CIBE has launched a program that includes international workshops, internship programs, lan- guage courses and trips to countries in southeast Asia, based on funding it has received. The program educates potential man- agers on the global market and increas- ing competition in areas where the United States continues to lag behind. At a workshop earlier this month on How to Develop an 1nt R riaiona Career, CIBE hosted two business pro- fessionals in an atttempt to make University students aware of the oppor- tunities abroad. The panel discussion was led by Ronald Ebelts, a marketing manager and worldwide strategic planner for Procter & Gamble, and Jeffrey Guyton, who earned a joint degree in business and Japanese studies and has worked for Ford in Japan. "It's good to know that other people don't take such a traditinional path in attaining international careers," said LSA senior Katie Ryan. CIBE Director Brad Farnsworth said he thought the program was very infor- mative for the students interested in international business. "Procter & Gamble and Ford both have very strong human international resources," Farnsworth said. 'Companies are appreciative of lan- guage skills. "They have recognized the value of language in countries like China, where there are vast cultural differ- ences." Guyton also emphasized the impor- tance of fluency in a foreign language. "Language is critical, as are leader- ship and business background," Guyton said. "Take a history or literature class that gives you additional depth in that region," he advised. Students concerns remained focused on how their pay scale would change as they moved to a job abroad. "Compensation is more tied to the local pay scale than the U.S.'s, but it is subject to negotiations," Guyton said at the presentation. Ebelts answered concerns about wages abroad. For the most part, the speakers emphasized the accomodating JOIN THE MOST PROMISING PROFESSION OF THE 221"ST CENTURY Prospective Teacher Education Meeting Thursday, November 7, 1996 6:00 p.m. Whitney Auditorium Room 1 309 School of Education Building Call 764-7563 for more information. $5 OFF $8 OFF Full Set Tip Manicure & Overlay Pedicure Reg. $29 n May not be Combination offer.

"Once the decision to move has been made, the company takes care of every- thing," Ebelts said. CIBE continues to become an invalu- able asset in helping students attain employment abroad.
