Foreign Students Participate Fully In Sandia Activities During the Bicentennial year, Sandia was fortunate to he honored with six foreign exchange students who came to i-Xlhuquerque through various organizations and on their own. They were :Xliane Lauthier from qXix-lfn- Provence, Franceg Per Olsson from Saltsjohaden, Swedeng Xlonica Klinger from Zurich, Switzerlandg Margarita Villarreala from Mexico Cityg .-Xnneli Brogaard from Lyngby. Denmarkg and Thomas Capelle from Harzburg. Germany. After recovering from the cultural shock of a new country, the students adapted to their new environment amazingly well and it was almost impossible to distinguish foreign exchange students from native Sandians. Everyone was in agreement that Sandia was very different from the school they had previously attended, but that they were enjoying their year here. They also were of the opinion that New Nlexico students have extensive freedom and that student-teacher relationships are much better here than in their respective countries. gl -s., fsi., ttt, N.

Staters Delegates Spend Busy Week At Yearly Convention ln June of 1975 eight boys and six girls attended the New Mexico Boys, and Girls' State, with the girl delegates at Highlands University in Las Vegas, while the boys attended New Mexico Military Institute in Roswell. State, organized and run by the American Legion and Auxiliary members, is an intensive week designed to introduce government and how it works on the city, county, state levels. Selection for staters is made in the spring of the junior year. After voting and interviews 18 boys and 16 girls are picked for Staters Club. For every delegate there is an alternate. The alternates are ranked in the order that they would attend state if necessary. All delegates are assigned to one of the eight mythical cities. No one from the same school is placed in the same floor. This enables the delegates to meet new people and make new friends. Many activities, and speakers were scheduled for the busy week, including a one day trip to Santa Fe. Here each state officer had a chance to meet with their counterpart, and discuss responsibilities connected with the office. Offices held by Sandians at State were Robyn Steifeld, Cactus City Treasurer: Jeanette Nail, Aspen City Treasurer, Washington County Treasurer, Loretta Keller, Spruce City Councilman, Danny Whiteman, county and state party chairman, State Corporation Commissioner, Boys Nation Nominee, Kim Kuhlman, State Senator, Doug Stewart, sheriff: Lance Witt, Attorney- at-Lawg Mike Real, Montezuma City Councilman, Wally Pohland, Mendoza City Council. Others attending state were Tina Tilton, Anne Martin, Anne Bratun, Mark Fvanko, and Gary A. Cotton. ln the fall Staters from around the city attended a banquet to thank American Legion Post 13 and all the other sponsors. 182 fiilliim Vi f' i 'fam W E, fe?
