If you want to make a
difference in the world, have an impact on national and international
problems–and build a good life for yourself at the same
time–consider a career in the public or nonprofit sector.
Forget about old gray
desks and a lack of imagination. The nine young men and women
you'll meet in these pages are living
proof that public service careers can be stimulating, satisfying
and highly rewarding.
Local, state and federal
government, and nongovernmental organizations, offer competitive
salaries, outstanding benefits, advancement opportunities
and job security. And the jobs are out there, whether you're
a computer scientist, an anthropology major, or still exploring
your future.
