National Service for All.

Parsons, Cynthia

Phi Delta Kappan, v65 n10 p688-89 Jun 1984

Outlines a proposal whereby students between the ages of 16 and 26 would give two years of national service in the government agency of their choice or in the nonprofit private sector. The proposal would be especially useful, the author argues, for noncollege-bound high school students and dropouts. (JBM)
