I know a lot of people are intruiged by the idea of Teach for America. It's a great way to give back, work on our resume, and avoid the reality of actually working in an office 5 days a week right after college.
I was lured by the idea of it too, but have recently come across a variety of media and personal stories that have proved a little less...well...attractive.
Today Wendy Kopp, founder of Teach for America, is coming to speak at Penn, for a lecture and Q&A session at 4:30 p.m. in Huntsman Hall Auditorium G06. I won't be able to make the series, but hopefully she'll address some of the more negative press about self-selecting to ivy leaguers and the like when she speaks.
I'll keep you posted, and if anyone else can post on her speech, i'd be really interested to hear about what she says.
