Top: ANNE JOKES IN SWEDISH with a Danish convocation performer. Above: NOW HOW ' S A GIRL supposed to write home about something like this? Swedish Girl Views U.S.A. Outspoken, ungrateful, hon- est, constructively critical — all of these descriptions and more were applied to Southwood ' s 1971-72 exchange student during her year in the community. Unlike many of her predecessors, Anne Lundin wasted no time in polite chatter when she honestly felt that many of the customs and attitudes of her American hosts could be improved upon. Bringing with her from Swe- den a distaste of the U.S. in- volvement in Viet Nam and a pre- conceived notion that all American women were rich, overweight, and bedecked with red fingernail pol- ish, Anne kept her attitude about the war and modified her opinion of Americans in general.
