Why did you join the Peace Corps?"I was selfish. I saw an opportunity to find out about myself. I also wanted a chance to be in a new environment. There were about 100 people in my group and we had a three-month training program. We underwent intensive language training and there were something like six shrinks to see if we had what it took on a psychological basis. Some of them got de-selected because it was felt they might be a burden when they got in-country."
