Princeton, the Peace Corps, and Libya Virtual Talk - Wednesday November 18, 2020, 7pm Join fellow tiger and local resident, Randy Hobler ’68, as he shares his research and colorful personal experiences of Princeton, the Peace Corps, and Libya. Randy’s presentation will include the encompassing notion of “Princeton in the Nation’s Service and the Service of Humanity”, Princeton tie-ins to peace initiatives, Princeton and the Peace Corps, and excerpts from his newly release book, 101 Arabian Tales: How We All Persevered in Peace Corps Libya. Unlike the 1,000+ other Peace Corps memoirs published to date, which are individual stories, this is a collective memoir in which Hobler has interviewed over a hundred of his fellow Libyan volunteers.* The virtual talk will be via zoom. It is free, but please email Jackie at events@princetonCT.org to receive the link. The talk will start at 7pm. The presentation itself is a half hour with plenty of time for questions. We look forward to seeing you! *Note – Randy has been developing a database of all Princetonians who served in the Peace Corps. If there is additional information you can share, he would like to hear from you. www.101arabiantales.com RSVP Jackie Alexander '84 at: ::::::::::::::

They have performed for US presidents, in baseball stadiums and backyards,
internationally and nationally. The Footnotes' original song, "All I Ask for
Is You," was chosen to be on Varsity Vocals' Best of Collegiate A Cappella
