Exchange Student Program Planned For Summer At Community College Cape Cod Community College will coordinate a student exchange program with Scandinavia this summer. As part of the annual Recipro- cal Student Exchange Program of the Student International Society for Mutual Understanding 40 Cape area students will visit Denmark, Finland , Norway or Sweden, lear- , nlng native habits , customs and ideas firsthand. They will be members of the foreign families, while 40 Scandi- navian students learn about Ameri- can life. SIS is a world-wide asso- ciation dedicated to improving in- ternational understanding among youth of different countries. For- ty Cape families are wanted to put up the visiting students. Professor Douglas Milchell , Com munity College coordinator of the exchange program , pointed out that this exchange benefits not only the students involved but al- so the host families and communi- ties sharing the experience. "This is an excellent opportuni- • 1y," he said , "for Cape students to learn about Scandinavia first- hand and for Cape families to learn of Scandinavian life on a personal level. " Two exchanges of students be- tween the Cape area and Scandi- navia will take place from June 22 to July 20, and from July 22 to Aug. 20. Groups of 20 students will participate in each exchange. American students between the ages of 15-21 are elibible for the program. They must be prepared to adapt to Scandinavian differences in cul- ture , environment, and even food. Exceptionally high grades are not required of applicants, nor is pro- ficiency in a foreign language. The program mciuaes a 24-day homestay with a Scandinavian fa- mily plus three-day visits to Co- penhagen and London. A mini - mum of 10 Americans will be plac- ed in a community. A fee of $495 includes round- trip jet flight, hotels, meals, tips, .sight-seeing tours , transfers and flight accommodations on the Lon- don- Copenhagen visits, responsi- ble leadership and supervision, and all airport and special taxes. During their 30-day stay In the United States, the Scandinavian students will spend 27 days living with Cape families and three days on a group tour of New York City. Responsible leaders will accom - pany each group to handle any problems. Forty families from the Cape and adjoinin g area are needed to provide lodging and meals for the visiting Scandinavian studo n t s. Twenty for June-July, and 20 for the July- August session. Host fa- milies are asked to treat the for- eign student as a member, rather than a guest, of the household. They must be willing to under- stand and learn from the differ- ences in habits and customs of the Scandinavian visitors. Visit - ing students are expected, in turn , to observe the household's rules and to join in activities with Ameri- can students of like age. Despite their cultural differen- ces, host families and Scandina- vian students have the English language as a common bond. It's a second language for Scandina- vians. Families hosting foreign students are eligible for special consideration of their children's application to visit abroad under the SIS program. Deadline for application is May 1. Prospective student applicants and area families interested in hosting one or more Scandinavian students this summer may call Dr. Thomas L. Alexander, Director , External Affairs , Cape Cod Com- munity College, 362-2131 extension 211, or Professor Mitchell at ex- tension 321. Raider Sports ^ Szcan$.
