(Shane Welsh photo) Exchange students at I.V. offer worldly valley views By CHRISTINA HILL Correspondent Four foreign exchange students are providing an international flavor at Illi- nois Valley High School this year. Still mastering the English language, but do- ing just fine, are: *Emily Wu, 18, a sen- ior from Taiwan, who is living with Sam and Diane Steverson in Cave Junc- tion. Steverson teaches at Lorna Byrne Middle School, and his wife is an aide at IVHS. *Tammy Kim, 17, a senior who’s from South Korea, and who also is hosted by the Steversons. *Christoph Kiahforst, 17, from Germany, a guest of Gary Reeal in Cave Junction. Kiahforst is in the senior class. *Ahron Yoon, 17, a junior class student from South Korea, who is hosted by John and Linda Swinson in CJ. The four visitors each said that they chose the West Coast for factors in- cluding its beauty, safety and lack of blackouts. “When I was choosing where to go, the East Coast had the terror attacks, and the big blackout, so that’s why I wanted to come to the West Coast,” said Wu. “The landscape is nice here too,” she said, “and I was surprised when I saw a wild deer.” “This area reminds me of France,” said Kiahforst. “I’ve been there, and both places have a lot of moun- tains.” Besides being en- tranced by the landscape and wildlife, the students also have been enjoying new flavors for their taste buds. “I never had peanut butter or jelly beans before I came here,” noted Kiahforst. (Continued on page 12) “Live theater can reach people in ways that no other medium can,” ac- cording to Jane Lapiner, artistic director and per- former. “If you apply this capacity for deeper com- munication to human- kind’s most important is- sues and goals, leaven it with broad, forgiving hu- mor, the result can be life- changing,” she said. Another aspect of this performance is that “it pro- vides an unusual family collaboration.” Simpson and his partner, Lapiner, have been working to- gether on stage since they acted as members of the San Francisco Mime Troup during the 1960s. They are joined on stage by their youngest daughter, Joyful Simpson, who has been dancing and performing in the San Francisco Bay Area for the past two years. She has the central role of “Raven.” Everything is seen through the perspective of “Raven,” who observes and interacts with people on her path to help restore balance to the world. “What’s Funny About Climate Change,” a three- person comedy review on melting icecaps, rising sea levels and record high tem- peratures, will be per- formed at 7:30 p.m. on Monday, May 24, in the Lorna Byrne Middle School theater. The show is a produc- tion of Petrolia’s Human Nature theater company. Human Nature has toured the United States and Europe with musical com- edy shows about pressing social and environmental issues. It first came to pub- lic attention in the early 1990s, when its musical comedy, “Queen Salmon,” traveled in the Pacific Northwest. “What’s funny about global warming is not the changes our planet is un- dergoing, but the way in which people attempt to deny it, hide it, exploit it, or explain it away,” said David Simpson, one of the show’s writers and a founding member of Hu- man Nature.
