We international students, living in a foreign country, undergo culture shock. The shock comes in the form of loneliness - the kind I exper- ienced on a snowy night, Jan. 1982, as I lay alone in my cold drab room, listening to Coffman 3rd reminisce and relay Christmas excitement. Shock also comes in the form of fear in realizing that one does not know enough English to do the best in class and with assignments. Some students feel confused as pacifism is stressed and Christian- ity is held in high esteem at GC, and they come from a land of fight- ing and minimum mention of Christ. Some, as I, are shocked, yet glad, to discover that America is not the heaven we thought it was. As a remedy for the shock and home-sickness, we cling together -joking, eating, planning Chow to copel and sharing. 0ur cultures are different together. Sometimes we are too different to achieve some important goals at the club level. We do not always cling together, some international students do more than others, just as some Americans prefer being with for- eign students more than others.
