 Judith
and Thomas Hogan ’67 of Litchfield, Conn.,
were sworn in as Peace Corps volunteers for the Ukraine on Dec.
23, 2003. The swearing-in followed a three-month orientation
in the Ukrainian language and culture. The ceremony took place
at the Ukrainian Teachers’ House
in Kiev, where United States Ambassador John Herbst administered
the oath of office to the 81 new volunteers. More than 400 people
attended the ceremony. Mr. Hogan was selected to speak on behalf
of the new Peace Corps volunteers.
Mr. and Mrs. Hogan are now living in the town of Khust, Ukraine, located
near the borders of Romania and Hungary; they are teaching English,
American history and American literature. Mrs. Hogan also serves
on the Volunteer Advisory Committee – a board of 24 current Peace
Corps volunteers who advise Peace Corps officials on issues facing
the volunteers in the field. Pictured here, the Hogans visit with
their daughter, Laura ’00
in Heroes’ Square, Budapest.
