For the second year in a row, UW-Madison is the nation's top volunteer producing school, according to Peace Corps Director Gaddi H. Vasquez.
UW-Madison leads the large school category after sending 123 graduates to the Peace Corps last year. The University of Michigan is second in the category.
\The Peace Corps is proud of the recruitment support it continues to receive from some of the finest institutions in the country,"" said Vasquez. ""The Peace Corps is grateful for the productive working relationships it has with the staff and students of each school.""
A group of UW-Madison accounting students, faculty and staff, in cooperation with retired certified public accountants and the Wisconsin Department of Revenue, will offer free federal and state income-tax help through April 15 at the UW-Madison Community Partnerships Office, 2300 S. Park St. Suite #9.
People should bring all tax information, including their W-2 wage statements, information on other sources of income, interest and dividend statements, deduction and tax-credit documentation, Social Security cards and tuition-payment statements in order to get assistance.
