Foreign Study League
Offers Varied Programs
For Summer Study Abroad
All-State Selection
Named Boy For Nov.
by karin Davidson
Arc you interested in studying in a foreign
country next summer? Do you know anything
about foreign study or have you just taken it for
granted that it would be impossible?
Well, if you ARE interested it may not be as
impossible as you thought.
The Foreign Study League is a private
educational institution which provides young
American students with the opportunity to attend
summer schools abroad.
If enough students are interested, Mrs. Simon
hopes to take a home town group to France,
where she will act as counselor.
The group will sfend three days in Amsterdam,
32 days attending summer school at the University
of Reims, Reims, France, 4 days in Paris and 3
days in London.
Their curriculum will be French language and
civilization for beginning, intermediate and
advanced students. Lectures on French culture will
complement the curriculum.
A program of excursions and activities for
many weekends and afternoons is also planned for
each campus. The complete cost of these
excursions included in the student tuition fee.
It must be noted that students may enroll in
one of two categories: as a part of a home town
group; or as a single student.
Students wishing to enroll where no home town
group is being formed will be classified as single
students and will be placed with another group.
The student tuition fee varies, depending on the
F.uropean campus location, the particular program,
the U.S. city of departure, and the method of
transportation chosen by the student (ship andor
jet)

place, and Shirley Nickodemus
third.

Challenge." The contest was

that belief in democracy is
freedom's greatest challenge. She

a castle of freedom, now we
must build a foundation."

this challenge young people
should take advantage of school
courses and speakers, take part
in discussions, be informed,
know political candidates and
issues, and keep an open mind.

individualism is freedom's
challenge. She said that many
people have lost their identity in
the crowd, and that "Freedom is
nothing but the chance to be
better."

belief that freedom's greatest
challenge is in the area of civil
rights and equal opportunity for
success. She stated that "The
time has come for black and
white America to join hands and
unite for a better America."
