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.
