New students from all over mingle well Foreign Exchange Students put on Fashion Show To the hundreds of new students who entered Northwood’s gate this year, there was an addition of several international students. These students represent the South American countries of Peru, Colombia, and Ecuador. There are also students from Costa Rica. These students are learning two things while they are here in America. Besides studying the courses on their curriculum they are also learn- ing the North American way of college life. These young men and women are invited to attend many of the different group meetings sponsored by the people of Midland. At these meetings the students explain about their coun- tries, the habits, customs and educational meth- ods of their schools. “Northwood is a school which has been very good to us all and has given us unlimited oppor- tunities for getting a good education that will help us in finding better jobs.”’ The students are eager and willing to work, help, and learn. They are a great asset to the new International program of Northwood Institute. 85
