The do-gooder organization that sends America's top college grads into its toughest schools for two-year commitments, 'a la the Peace Corps, is bound for another banner year.

Teach for America just yesterday announced that this fall it will place 3,700 new teachers in schools nationwide, a 28-percent increase, the New York Times reported.

Further, the group reported a "surge in applications," receiving nearly 25,000 applications this time around, up from 18,000 last year.

Congrats!
