.-.?:., Y V Foreign exchange students: the American way Becoming an American student at Fort Osage was an adventure sought by three Europeans: Stefan Liebke, Germanyp Liv Berghagen and Fredrik Zander, Sweden. Each had a crash course in survival. They had to adapt to American lifestyles and become Indians before the year was out. Each in his own way became a part of Fort Osage. In the early months, Liv spent much of her time running and became a part of the Cross Country Team. The team later nominated her as a Homecoming Queen candidate. Team participation was exper- ienced by 'Stefan and Fredrik also. They were both involved in soccer and played for the Indians. As the year progressed, Fredrik became more than a soccer player. He took on the role of Dr. Finsdale ...,,,.v-n M. . 1 ff 3 4.1 1-:rf in the school musical, Li'l Abner. Rehearsals soon dominated his spare time. The foreign exchange students found time, however, between their many extra-curricular activities, to speak to community groups about their country and their experiences in America. The American way of government became more familiar to the ex- change students also through their participation in student council. Iust as the brave becomes a warrior, the exchange students sur- vived to become Indians. They re- turned to their country with memo- ries of friends, experiences in America, and an insight to the school life of a Fort Osage student. Stefan Liebke ftopj found time to play soccer the American way. He spent many hours at soccer practice, playing for the Indians. Fredrik Zander, Liv Berghagen, and Stefan Liebke brought European lifestyles to Independence, Mis- souri. Besides sharing their experiences with other students, the three often spoke to local community groups. Foreign Exchange Students!Sissy Goddard Zl
