In fact, UMW ranks among the nation&#8217;s top small universities for alumni serving in the Peace Coprs. Farrell, one of 21 alumni currently serving in the Peace Corps, is in the midst of a 22-month stint in Morocco as a youth development volunteer.<\/p>\n<p>While at Mary Washington, Farrell felt her dream grow and develop, both through her work as a theatre and political science double major and through experiences overseas.<\/p>\n<p>As a junior, she left the U.S. for the first time as part of the European Capitals summer study abroad trip.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI have always felt that among the many benefits of the European Capitals trip, one of the most important was how it expanded the horizons of students about diverse cultures, customs and political systems and policies,\u201d said <a href=\"https:\/\/www.umw.edu\/faculty\/faculty-member\/jkramer\/\">Jack Kramer<\/a>, distinguished professor and chair of political science and international affairs and leader of the trip. \u201cIn today\u2019s increasingly interconnected world, sensitivity to such diversity is absolutely essential and constitutes one of the bedrocks of liberal learning that UMW provides its students.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Farrell also traveled to Honduras with a group from Students Helping Honduras and the Campus Christian Community, an experience that solidified her decision to pursue the Peace Corps.<\/p>\n<p>During her senior year, between appearing in theatre productions, earning departmental honors and participating in both theatre and political science honor societies, Farrell progressed through the multi-part Peace Corps application process. She arrived in Morocco for her placement just four months after graduation.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_5071\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-5071\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"http:\/\/umwwebmaster.wpengine.com\/greatminds\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2013\/01\/Bethany-Farrell_Peace-Corps-2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"5071\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.umw.edu\/greatminds\/bethany-farrell_peace-corps-2\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/www.umw.edu\/greatminds\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2013\/01\/Bethany-Farrell_Peace-Corps-2.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"2048,1536\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;8&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;DSC-W150&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1342672589&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;5&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;100&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.00625&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Bethany Farrell_Peace Corps 2\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;Bethany Farrell (first row, third from right) spends each morning&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/www.umw.edu\/greatminds\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2013\/01\/Bethany-Farrell_Peace-Corps-2-300x225.jpg\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/www.umw.edu\/greatminds\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2013\/01\/Bethany-Farrell_Peace-Corps-2-1024x768.jpg\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-5071\" title=\"Bethany Farrell_Peace Corps 2\" src=\"http:\/\/umwwebmaster.wpengine.com\/greatminds\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2013\/01\/Bethany-Farrell_Peace-Corps-2-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"\/\/www.umw.edu\/greatminds\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2013\/01\/Bethany-Farrell_Peace-Corps-2-300x225.jpg 300w, \/\/www.umw.edu\/greatminds\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2013\/01\/Bethany-Farrell_Peace-Corps-2-768x576.jpg 768w, \/\/www.umw.edu\/greatminds\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2013\/01\/Bethany-Farrell_Peace-Corps-2-1024x768.jpg 1024w, \/\/www.umw.edu\/greatminds\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2013\/01\/Bethany-Farrell_Peace-Corps-2-1140x855.jpg 1140w, \/\/www.umw.edu\/greatminds\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2013\/01\/Bethany-Farrell_Peace-Corps-2.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-5071\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Bethany Farrell (first row, third from right) spends each morning at a youth center in Morocco<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Now, Farrell spends each morning at a youth center in the small city of Bejaad, Morocco and teaches English classes in the evenings.
