VY. Globetrotting: Meeting people from other coun- tries is an exciting, but an awkward experiencef' explained Linda Schoffs- tall. With advisor, Madelynne Lillybeck, club meetings were filled with slide shows, guest speakers, and travel discus- sions. Elin Kjetland from Norway and Anna Markelius from Sweden had the honor of being North high School's first foreign exchange students. They, too, were members of the International Club and showed other students the differ- ence between their Swedish and Norwe- gian cultures from the American culture. The International Club members had the chance to sign up to travel abroad in a type of 'gfirst come, first serve basis because of the popular demand on exchanges to European countries. A few North High students took advantage of this chance. In order for North to add an international flavor, it had to give stu- dents an opportunity to share lifestyles 11 aboard! of other cultures and educational systems which provide an opportunity for students to grow and experience the global community, stressed Lillybeck. There will forever be something to learn, and in the International Club, one can learn some of the better ideals on cultures, environment, and people. It's a nice club, and I think they do a good job in making people understand other cultures, stated Kjetland.
