Languages live at Fairview There are a number of foreigners at Fairview, learn- ing America's culture by experience, in addition to the necessary academics needed for the American achieve- ment-the diploma. From Lebanon, Vahe Christianian and his family moved to the U.S. in Iuly of 1978 to es- cape the religious persecution of Lebanese Christians. When asked how he feels about his life in America in comparison to that in Lebanon, Vahe replied that he is happy in the United States because of the freedom and rights here, not found in his native country. Vahe has mixed emotions about the war which tore his homeland in half, and splattered the streets of Beirut in blood, but realizes that he would never have had the opportunity to move here if it hadn't happened. The education he is obtaining at Fairview is more varied, and the atmosphere is extremely relaxed in con- trast to the formality of the school he attended in Leba- non-all students were to stand when a teacher entered the room. Vahe is convinced that schooling standards in the U.S. are lax compared to the much more difficult ones in his homeland. Vahe speaks his native tongue Armenian, plus English, French, and Arabic. This Armenian misses his friends in Lebanon, but when asked if he ever hopes to return, Vahe replied, Some day I will, to visitg not to live-not after what has happened. 111 Vahe Christianian sighs with exhaustion after being dragged kick- ing and screaming into the darkroom to print yet another picture for Dea Green in academics section. IZI Mrs. Sampson converses with a student in Russian. ISI Steve Trurnbo tells of his latest soujourn to France. 141 Mrs. Woodsone substitutes for Mr. Craig's Latin class. Q51 A Spanish picture poster located in room 625 makes a refreshing change from the bare wall. IGI Ms, Fairbairn, Spanish teacher, radiates a fun- loving free spirit. 78 Foreign Language Department
