the Study of CRUNCH, IVIUNCH, SLURP - Dan l-lochalter has a bite to eat while at- tending a, German Club meeting. Culturing Culture Normally students do not know what the culture is like in other countries because of living in the isolated town of Missoula. This year they got first hand knowledge as a result of the exposure of six foreign ex- change students from Sweden, Finland, France, and the Faroe Islands. Two of the clubs at Big Sky are directly related to foreign cultures. The only two clubs that have to do with foreign cultures are the German Club and the International Club. It's a fun and low cost Way to travel, said one International Club Advisor, Peggy Patrick. What she means is that it is fun to see what other parts of the world are like and at no cost. Patrick and Carolyn Brock, the other club leader, put together a slide show and cook- ed foreign food to show the members of the club what the different countries are like. Some people do not understand what In- ternational Club is. International Club con- sists of anyone interested in foreign cultures. It promotes and understanding of other languages and cultures throughout the world, according to Patrick. .ig- GERMAN DELIGHT - Amber Underhill and Linda Lange East on cake at a erman club party. One of the most popular club activities involved preparing German dishes and then sampling them during meetings.

WHATS UP DOC- Greg Hanich ttop Iettj smiles in satisfaction while in attendance at a German club gather- ing at Village Inn Pizza, AFTER DINNER PUFF - German Club Advisor, Walt Graf fabovej, smokes his trusty pipe after eating a pizza with the rest of his German Club members at a party at the Villiage Inn Pizza. INTERNATIONAL CLUB- Front: Carolyn Brock, Cattle Valgenti, Peggy Patrick, Pam McGhee. A person who doesn't know a foreign language, doesn't know his ownf' says Walt Graf, Big Sky's German Club advisor. But Graf is particularly talking about his own German Club members. Big Skyis German Club consists of all of the students in Grai's German classes. German Club gives the stucents a common knowledge of Ger- man culture and language. It fthe clubj stimulates German culture throughout the students that are involved, said Graf. Picnics and potlucks are main gatherings for the members. To keep up with the idea of Ger- man culture, they take German dishes to get aquainted with the food Germans eat. Through the year, German Club is making money for certain projects. This year, like every year, they are contributing to a mini-scholarship fund into which the money will go. Someone who will pursue the German culture will be the recipient of the scholarship. The German Club also is donating money for the letters on the school Marquee, which will be placed outside Big Sky in the future. These funds come from sales of Gummie Bear candies and Advent calen- dars which have become a tradition for the club, and students who buy them. Kevin Trowbridge Germanllnternational Club-135
