==Education and Peace Corps service==
Tschetter earned a bachelor's degree from Bethel University〔(The White House. "Personnel Announcement." July 25, 2006. )〕 in psychology and social studies.〔 After college, he and some friends traveled and hitchhiked around Europe, Syria, Lebanon, Israel and Egypt. He returned home and met and married his wife Nancy. "One day we saw this Peace Corps ad, and I said to Nancy, 'We're going to do this work stuff the rest of our lives. Let's go out and see if we can do some good,'" Tschetter says.〔(Billings Gazette. "Nominee recalls his days in Corps" by Jan Falstad. July 29, 2006. )〕 Although the couple wanted to serve in Turkey, Iran, or Afghanistan, Tschetter and his wife were assigned to teach family-planning techniques in Maharashtra,〔(Miami Herald. "Peace Corps volunteer can't stop giving" by Priscilla Greear. October 25, 2007. )〕 India, beginning in 1966.〔 "We lucked out. India was more different than any of them," says Tschetter. "Wow, what a country."〔 Over the years the Tschetters have returned to India five times to visit their friends.〔 Once as a Peace Corps volunteer, Tschetter traveled across India to deliver medicine to a village suffering from a smallpox epidemic.〔 "Ultimately the village recovered," said Tschetter.〔 "And today, smallpox is eradicated in the world and it is because of this and thousands of other experiences like it."〔(Naples News. "Peace Corps seeing resurgence, new chief says" by Amie Parnes. October 2, 2006. )〕
