Show AROUND HILL New stained glass and fused glass classes to begin in July Hilltop 8 TIMES June 27. 2013 SCHOLARS From page 7 White House Fellowship Program The White House Fellowship Program provides promising leaders with first-hand experience in the American government process. Selected candidates work for a year as special assistants or senior executives to cabinet-level agencies or in the executive office of the president. A nonpartisan program, participants experience the process of governing the nation, working with high-level public servants and participating in roundtable discussions with notable private sector and public leaders. Program dates are August 2014-August 2015. Applicants must have sufficient retainability to serve an active duty service commitment equal to three times the length of training, Franklin said. Selectees must also be available for reassignment and released by their AFPC assignment officer. Go to myPers for eligibility and application information. Go to http:// www.whitehouse.gov/about/fellowsfor more information about the program. Mansfield Fellowship Exchange Program Airmen interested in cultural immersion in Japan can look into the Mansfield Fellowship Exchange Program. Named after former U.S. Ambassador Mike Mansfield, the program enables federal government employees to develop in-depth understanding of Japan and its government and to develop relationships with their Japanese counterparts. The program has been restructured to allow 10 Fellows to serve for one year, Franklin said. The restructure includes a seven-week home-stay and intensive Japanese language program in the Ishikawa Prefecture, followed by a 10-month placement in Tokyo. Officers in all career fields except physicians and dentists are eligible to apply for the program. Officers selected for the program will be designated as RAS officers and will serve on a dual career path. Mansfield fellowship opportunities are also open to enlisted members who meet program cri- BLOOD From page 7 Briggs is a yearround donor and like her father, she said she doesn't let summer schedules get in the way of saving lives. "(My father) donated every eight weeks despite the busy summer season or vacations, and I try to do the same," Briggs said. "Luckily, the ASBP makes it easy to fit donating into my schedule with walk-in appointments." Blood collected by the ABSP is collected by the military, for the military. This means that all blood, platelet and plasma donations collected by the military blood program directly support ill or injured service members, veterans and their families worldwide. "While I was growing up, my father was a great example. He went out of his way to find blood donor centers and frequently donated," Porter said. "Ultimately, whether donating blood is a civic duty — such as voting — or a nice thing to do, by simply enduring a minor needle stick, a life can potentially be saved. That fact is motivation." teria. Interested enlisted members should contact their respective assignment functions for application information.
