Off Campus Getting Away There ' s a need within to escape people, places, subjects that seduce me to depression. The jam in my soul has a confounding strength that no one can settle down. Allow me to borrow some of your time, to acknowledge my plight to rejoice. Allow me to see the picturesque moment when I reach my tipiest grounds. The N.C, State Fair provides fun and excitement for all, including Lou-U students. Flocking by the hundreds, many choose to attend the state ' s largest festival. 16

tmblelon is n«xt on my list after Loulsburg I will be tent if I don ' t get a chance to go to Wimbleion be ae I have played some strong competition here America and Japan are brothers In the world — Nubuo Kitayama. After three years In a completely different culture from his own native Japan, Nobuo Kitayama has found the United States very intriguing. It was his great interest in the American culture that brought him here and his interest of studying Prcmedicine at Duke University. Fate must have had golden opportunities waiting for Louisburg and Nubuo to come together. With seven years of study and ex- perience with English, the language barrier was no obstacle to making many friends and discovering America and Louisburg and dif- ferent lifestyles and customs. As a very competitive tennis player, Nu- buo won the fall tennis intramural champion- ship. In the spring, Nobuo will once again hit the tennis courts as a member of the tennis team. If he ' s not found on the tennis courts, he may be found skiing down the slopes. swimming a few strokes, or studying for his next exam. Nubuo always finds time for ex- tracurricula activities with his new found American Friends. mencan college students are much more kind, open- themselves to others It surprises me that Americans so much junk food. Last but not least among our foreign stu- dents of 1981-82 is Per Nillson of Sweden. Per is a sophomore from Sweden who came to the U.S. to learn English and seek out job experiences which would improve his job op- portunities in the future, although he isn ' t certain as to his career goals. When asked why Louisburg, Per said that a counselor for N.C. State told him of Louis- burg, saying the size and atmosphere would help him to learn English and experience American culture before entering a larger institution such as Duke or Carolina. Per says that American college students were much more kind, opening themselves to others. Another thing that he says surprised him was that we Americans eat so much junk food. When asked about differences or similari- ties between Lou-U and colleges in Sweden, Per said that Swedish students were much more serious and mature than students here. and that classes here were often harder. The thing that Per says has impressed him is that the professors, as well as the adminis- trators, seem so willing to help and listen to students ' problems. Per thinks that his experiences and educa- tion in the U.S. will help him to find a good job and to deal with people he meets on a daily basis. He feels it has also given him a more unbiased view of the United States. When asked what parting words Per would like to leave to Lou-U students, he said, Well, if you are ever in Sweden, look me up. 15
