Overseas Cultural Exchange Program Supported by AFS The American Field Service is a cultural organization that exists to introduce foreign students to the ways of life in America. The AFS held several city-wide functions this year for all members of the organization. Members included the foreign students themselves, the families they lived with during their stay in the United States and several people who were merely interested in the activities of the organization. Aliane Lauthier, from France, was Sandials AFS exchange student this year. She enjoyed her year at Sandia and participated in several school activities, namely the girls' volleyball team. She was also an honorary member of IVY, a senior girls' academic organization. ln addition to finding sponsors for foreign students coming to America, the AFS also provided information for American students who wish to spend a year in a foreign country. ln the past, several Sandia students have taken advantage. of this alternative. ,J- ani J W Al 116 'L W, I K . ,.y, ,L 'r ABOVE: Aliane talks about life in France as lVlr.

The Clubls officers were Liz Hayward, president, Linda Bertrand, vice-president, and Sarah Wider, secretary-treasurer. One of the French Club's projects was having a bake sale in which French pastries were sold to hungry Sandians. Other fund raising activities included selling various types of candy. The profits were used to help buy French books and magazines, as well as to finance a meal of French cuisine for club members. During the year, a potluck dinner was held at Albuquerque High for all of the high school French Clubs in the city. ln April, a three day program of French lectures, films, and discussions was presented in Glorieta for French Club members throughout the state. By the end of the year, French students had gained a better understanding of the language and ways of life of the French people.
