The international Students wish
to thank all the kind. thoughtful
people who met, visited and en-
tertained them while on vacation.
In college they have to work
doubly hard, struggling with our
language in addition to class as
signments. In many instances as
much time is consumed with the
dictionary as with the text.
This program is especially i'm
portant to young new students, in
this country who need so desper-
ately to feel that someone near
cares about them, their joys, sor-
rows, studies, grades, etc.
