There is a lot of homework in these classes, but most of the students pass, understanding what they did or not. I haven ' t understood any- thing in this class since the begin- ning of the year, said Jo-El Gillen, talking about her second hour Al- gebra 11.

The meetings were every Friday at lunch and the things they discussed ranged from gos- sip to the upcoming trips and their plans for it. There were about 32 people in the club. The officers of the club were President Clint Crook- shanks, Vice President Scott Grange, and Treasurer Erinne OHara. The purpose of the Science Club was for everyone who joins to get a better understanding of Science and they tnake Science more fun and interesting by do- ing such events as going on a field trip to the planetarium on the UNR Campus, which they did on February 23, and they watched a show and toured the planetarium.

Students from around the world were given the chance to expe- rience life in America. Exchange students came from Denmark, The Netherlands, Mexico, Cana- da, Germany, and Finland. The first sight of America was the most memorable. Danish Stu- dent Anders Weiss said. It was, Hot! It was raining when 1 left home. 1 got off the plane in L.A. and couldn ' t breathe. German student Katja Grund said, I thought America was a dream land. It is better than Ger- many 1 thought. These students would also re- member their host families. The American people were definitely different. The people, how peo- ple are. People here are more friendly and hospitable. They ask you a lot of questions. They want to know a lot about you and where you are from, Dutch stu- dent, Anneke Versluis said. All of the people think about food. When I stayed with new families they took me out to din- ner. This is what I expected though. My brother was here two years ago, said Finnish student Juha-Pekka J. P. Sarkomaa. These students had the rare chance to bring and share their cultures. They would never forget their trip for the rest of their lives. Katja Grund and Harr ' Medal compare notes before school in the hbrary. 188
