GCC COUNSELOR APPOINTED TO SELECTIVE SERVICE BOARD
Bruce Thomas, GCC Counseling Faculty, has been appointed to Arizona's Selective Service System Local Board. Local Board members are volunteers appointed by President George Bush. They play an important community role closely connected with the nation's defense. If a military draft becomes necessary, approximately 2,000 Local Boards throughout the United States would decide which young men in each community receive deferments, postponements, or exemptions from military service based on federal guidelines.
