Dear Professor O'Neil,
Hello! My name is Erin Moriarty, and I work with Green Corps, the non-profit Field School for Environmental Organizing.
I am looking to get the word out to graduating seniors at University of Puget Sound about our paid training program for environmental organizing. Our application process has just opened up for the 2012-2013 year and our next deadline is Oct. 15h. I would really appreciate it if you could send out our job description (below) to your students.
Please let me know if you are able to send this out to your students.
I appreciate your help, and I hope to hear from you soon!
Best,
Erin Moriarty

Green Corps 2012-2013 Field School for Environmental Organizing
Green Corps is looking for college graduates who are ready to take on the biggest environmental challenges of our day.
In Green Corps’ year-long paid program, you’ll get intensive training in the skills you’ll need to make a difference in the world. You’ll get hands-on experience fighting to solve urgent environmental problems — global warming, deforestation, water pollution and many others — with groups such as Sierra Club and Food and Water Watch. And, when you graduate from Green Corps, we’ll help you find a career with one of the nation’s leading environmental and social change groups.
For more information, read below or visit our web site: www.greencorps.org.
In your year with Green Corps:
You’ll get great training with some of the most experienced organizers in the field: Green Corps organizers take part in trainings with leading figures in the environmental and social change movements: people such as Adam Ruben, political director of MoveOn.org, and Bill McKibben, author and organizer of the “350.org” rallies for climate action.
You’ll get amazing experience working on environmental issues across the country: Green Corps sends organizers to jumpstart campaigns for groups such as Rainforest Action Network, Sierra Club, Greenpeace, Food and Water Watch and Environment America in San Francisco, Chicago, Boston and dozens of other places in between.
You’ll have a real impact on some of the biggest environmental problems we’re facing today: Green Corps organizers have built the campaigns that helpedkeep the Arctic safe from drilling, that led to new laws that support clean, renewable energy, that convinced major corporations to stop dumping in our oceans and much, much more.
You’ll even get paid: Green Corps Organizers earn a salary of $23,750. Organizers also have a chance to opt into our health care program with a pre-tax monthly salary deferral. We offer paid sick days and holidays, two weeks paid vacation and a student loan repayment program for those who qualify.
And when you graduate from the program, you’ll be ready for what comes next: Green Corps will help connect you to environmental and progressive groups that are looking for full-time staff to build their organizations and help them create social change and protect our environment.
In the next few months, we‘ll invite 35 college graduates to join Green Corps in 2012-2013. We’re looking for people who are serious about saving the planet, people who have taken initiative on their campus or community, and people who are willing to roll up their sleeves and work for change over the long haul.
If you think you’re one of those people, visit http://www.greencorps.org/apply to submit your application to join the 2012-2013 class of Green Corps’ Field School for Environmental Organizing.
Green Corps’ year-long program begins in August 2012 with Introductory Classroom Training in Boston, and continues with field placements in multiple locations across the U.S. Candidates must be willing to relocate.
For more information, visit http://www.greencorps.org or contact Aaron Myran, Green Corps Field Organizer, at aaron@greencorps.org or (802) 734-7680.

Dr. Sousa,
I hope all is well with you. I wanted to let you know that I have an internship/work-study position open this fall for a student to assist with political/budget research. I am examining budgets of the City, County and State, researching opportunities for potential collaborations with parks. Work could be done with very flexible scheduling or telecommuting. Ideally, the student might have political science and accounting or finance interests. I have been getting many responses from the main University of Washington campus but prefer someone that is local. If you know of a student that might be interested please have them contact me.

I am an emailing you as a follow up to see if you received our invitation to this year’s 53rd Academy Assembly at the United States Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs. The Assembly runs from October 18 to the 21st. This year’s theme is “Power and Influence Global Dynamics in the 21st Century”
This a subject of deep interest to both the United States military and United States policy makers. Among the countless important questions placed before the United States and the world are:
- What does the rise of new regional powers and non-state actors mean for the geopolitical future of the international community?
- Are we witnessing a shift in the global balance of power? What does such a shift mean for the fu-ture?
- Will the growing role of regional actors ensure regional stability, or a lack thereof?
- Where does the United States stand in an increas-ingly complex global political scene?
We hope that you intend to send a few delegates to this year’s assembly. If so please either email me back to let me know or call me at 817.846.2035.
