Speaking in Tongues What was a very easy way to study the entire scope of a coun- try or groups of countries? Studying a foreign language was how many students accom- plished that. All four languages offered at Eisenhower had a club. Each one did those things that taught the culture and language best. This past fall, the Latin club went to a Latin convention in Collinsville. There they partici- pated in contests ranging from best-dressed Roman to speech competitions. This sum- mer, a few Latin students planned a trip to Europe, spe- cifically Greece, Italy, and Switzerland. The Spanish club also planned a trip to Europe, but they traveled to Spain. They sold items to raise money for small group trips and to pay for any other expense. The German club offered an exchange program. German students came over to stay a short period of time with American host students, and then this summer, the Ameri- cans would go to Germany to stay. The French club caroled at Christmas time. They cheered up the patients at the local hos- pital. The club also had a dinner of French cuisine, and they had a French speaker come and talk with them. The foreign language clubs were places where students could study the different cus- toms outside the classroom. The members had a great deal of fun and learned too. N .

Different World This year's American Field Service student exchange pro- gram occurred among seniors. During their senior year, stu- dents had the opportunity to live in a foreign country and fol- low their customs. One of these students was Pierre Challier. He was born in Tours and lived in Blois, an average town of 60,000. His fa- ther and mother both work in education. He had a brother and two pets, a Dalmation and a Garfield cat. He graduated last year but was more interest- ed in writing, acting, and sing- ing than in attending college. He played rugby and tennis and enjoyed skiing and hiking. He chose to come to the U.S. because he was interested in American culture. To him, this country offered many opportu- nities and freedoms. His AFS experience was something important in my life, bringing me to know myself better. My experience tells me that young people are not dif- ferent around the world. He hoped that people will al- ways work for peace and show fewer prejudices. Together we all must aim for world under- standing. We can make it if we try.
