Magazine In the Shadows of Mountains The first American Peace Corps volunteer ever to request assignment to Haiti, Adam Price '88 reports on his first year among the people of the Western hemisphere's second-oldest republic. Photos by Adam Price '88 Editor's Note: In October, Adam Price '88 completed the first year of a two-year Peace Corps assignment in Haiti. Interestingly, he holds the distinction of being the only American yet to request assignment for Peace Corps duty there. The story goes that upon meeting a woman on a commuter train in Washington, D.C. who had just received a Peace Corps assignment to Haiti, Price walked into the Peace Corps headquarters during lunch that day and asked to be sent. The immediate response was a look of shock on the administrator's face and a call to the Haiti program manager to break the news. Price soon found himself being processed into the Corps. Haiti is a natural fit for Price. Before joining the Peace Corps, he had been working as a business development consultant in Washington, finishing his doctorate in Caribbean-American literature and looking to move into international development. His early interest in the field arose from annual subscriptions to National Geographic given by his grandfather John Wyatt '30 and an English class he calls "Neo-Colonial Literature" taught by Wabash professor Roger Berger.

Español Française Italiano Português ... Industrial Directory Summary GEOGRAPHY OF THE DOMINICAN REPUBLIC Click here to view a list of Provinces Click here to view a list of Distances Further to the north, Cordillera Septentrional stretches along the Atlantic coast from Monte Cristi near the Haitian border to San Francisco de Macorís. This mountain range divides the Atlantic coast and the fertile Cibao valley which contains the gold mines that formerly brought Christopher Columbus and the Spaniards rushing back to the island after their initial "discovery" of America. Tourists in the north (Puerto Plata region) should not miss an exploratory day-trip into the magical valleys of Cordillera Septentrional, especially around Jarabacoa, a region called locally the "Dominican Alps. The Cordillera Oriental, on the east, is the smallest of the three main mountain ranges. Two more mountain ranges are Neiba Sierra and Sierra de Bahoruco both in the southwest of the country. These ranges partially surround the unusual inland saltwater Lake Enriquillo, the lowest point in the Caribbean at 27 meters below sea level. The Southeastern region of the island, including the area surrounding the capital city of Santo Domingo, is mostly covered with rolling plains. To the west, along the northern two-thirds of the border with Haiti, the land is quite arid, with typical thorn shrubs and some varieties of cacti, and sparsely populated.

Links "[Farmer] explores Haitians' experiences and understanding of the disease with moving profiles of the first three AIDS sufferers in Do Kay, the village where he conducted field work from 1983 to 1990." Chronicle of Higher Education "Farmer's sensitive exploration of the lives and deaths of the people at Do Kay give his study a distinctly human face and an emotional edge that moves the study and the reader beyond the cynical gaze of post-modernism and political economy. The book is at the same time fiercely personal and coldly objective. The result is both moving and illuminating."Randall M. Packard, Science "Farmer's analysis . . . carefully postulates a trajectory of AIDS in the United States, Haiti, and the Caribbean, revealing the intimate economic and political links that allowed for the syndrome to appear simultaneously in the countries of the Western hemisphere. . . . Farmer renders a richly layered and nuanced ethnographic portrait."Guitele Nicoleau
