Art Department alumna Jaime Chambers (Art History) has been working for the past year as a Peace Corps volunteer in Africa (Malawi).  She has been doing remarkable work there, and most recently has been focusing on raising funds for a science lab for the school at which she teaches.

Jaime kindly sent us these photographs, including the one above of her speaking at the home of the United States Ambassador in Malawi. The pictures below include images of residents in the village where Jaime lives making bricks for the science lab project.

You can follow Jaime's blog here;  it includes beautiful writing about her experiences and life in Africa and information about how to contact her if you wish to know more about her project.  Congratulations, Jaime!

If you are an alum and have news to share, we'd love to hear from you!  Please contact us at art@truman.edu.
