Peace Corps
CU Boulder alumni among first Peace Corps volunteers to return overseas.
Since the founding of the Peace Corps in 1961, more than 230,000 CU Boulder alumni have served abroad.
What do 112 CU-Boulder alums have in common? They are all Peace Corps volunteers who helped CU-Boulder become first in the nation for the second consecutive year in Peace Corps participation.
After a lifetime of helping others and dreaming about what it would be like to serve in the Peace Corps, Ellie Vaughter’s (Thtr’91, MHum’00) aspiration is finally coming true.
CU Boulder received the top ranking for the first time in history.
