FEATURE November 7,1990 THE CLACKAMAS PRINT Page 3 International student finds U.S. friendly, open lUMt & "» $e Janr. Jane C C. Wilcrvr Wilcox Staffwriter Miwa Suzuki knows that if she were a citizen of Oregon, she would be voting for expansion of the light rail system. “I have a hard time (getting around) because I don’t have a car,” said Suzuki of the lack of transportation in the Portland Metro area. Suzuki has been an interna tional student here at Clackamas Community College for three terms.. She has lived in Oregon since July of 1989. The population of Suzuki’s hometown, Nagoya, is 23,000,000, making it the third largest city in Japan. She left behind her parents and one brother and one sister to come to Oregon, which she says is kind of rural. Photo bv Darbv Pererh Mlwa Suzuki from Nagoya, Japan has attended Clackamas for the last three terms. She has been surprised by the farms and animals that seem so abundant in the U.S. r'nmmpntino Commenting nn on Orponn's Oregon’s myriad of wildlife, Suzuki said, “I was surprised when I came here that you could see a squirrel or rabbit In Japan, we have to go to a zoo." 7t /s /ike Japan, some people are friendly, and some are not. “ She said that farms are scarce in Japan and it seems strange to see cows and horses and sheep so close to town. Everything is on a larger scale here in the Willam ette Valley more than in Japan: bigger mountains, wider roads, more open expanses of land and nature. Suzuki’s course load this term includes; includes: Srtcinlnov Sociology, marke.tina marketing and English Composition. Al though her favorite sports are tennis, golf and skiing, she is will ing to participate in any spoil. Suzuki is not homesick, though she was when she first moved to Oregon. She has many Japanese friends here and in Port land, so she can speak Japanese whenever she wants to. The people here are like those in Japan,” said Suzuki. “People at CCC are kind and friendly,I think. It is like Japan, some people are friendly and some are not. I have not found any discrimination.” Overall, Suzuki likes it here and is having fun, though she does wish there was more to do.* She plans on studying here at CCC a little longer.

The eagle’s name is Denali. Denali is the Aleut Indian name for ML McKinley meaning, 'Great One.” When the eagle was found in Alaska, his wing was broken in three different places. When vet erinarians in Sitka, Alaska were unable to repair the wing, he was shipped to Woodland Park Zoo. Woodland Park was also unable to return the wing to usable con dition. This left him unable to be returned to the wild, since would not.be able to hunt to survive, and was then donated to the ELC. “He’s pretty nervous right now, he’s uptight,” said Winnop. “But . then wouldn’t you be if you eame from the outdoors to a cage?” Denali has been here sirice September first and will be used for the “Bird’s of Prey” and “Recycling and Wildlife” educa tional programs presented by the ELC.
