I've done a lot of IT work, but have no such degree. Do I automatically get the shaft?

Also, what exactly do people in that area do?

I'm in the same boat, between IT and having some experience working with small businesses, I have no degree. That's not to say I wouldn't by the time I finally get around to applying (read: once my dental gets squared away,) do they still consider people without degrees, it just takes longer or something?

Ecuador stuff.

Hey man, been really interested in all things Ecuador lately (fueled by my Intercultural Communication class' assignments) and if you have a blog or anything of that nature, I'd love to follow it.

I'm back from Africa and never got malaria once (I also didn't take my pills because they made me super paranoid!)

Would the pills make you so paranoid that you thought taking them would make mosquitos bite you? If so, good call on not taking them!

Hey does anyone know of a site that serves a similar purpose as peacecorpsjournals.com used to serve? They went down recently and I've been dying for a convenient portal to find and view new(ish) blogs from volunteers.

I'm officially starting my path to obtain an associate's in sustainable agriculture from my local community college, which is a goal of mine for many reasons, one of which is to join Peace Corps. I know lately the application process has been having a lot of bachelor's degrees thrown at it, so I guess my question to y'all is, does the type of degree matter as long as I have practical skills from it (as well as plenty of volunteer hours which I'll be accruing)?
