Well, I had the opportunity to do just that. For the past three mon- ths I have been in Quebec on a student exchange. 1, along with two other students from Clarke High School returned home a week ago last Friday and were received warmly by family and friends.

For those of you who aren't familiar with the linguistic exchange, I will ex- plain. Each person wishing to participate in the exchange was required to complete a report on themselves. With the information gathered from these reports, students in Ontario were matched with students from Quebec. The Quebec students live in On- tario from September to December and the students from Ontario spent February to April in Quebec. My exchange partner's name was Annie St. Ger- main. We were to spend six months of our lives together but I knew relatively nothing about her and the first time I saw her was the day she step- ped off the bus, a little ner- vous about starting her three month exchange. She spoke very little English and my French was almost non- existent. Before that time I had never realized the impor- tance of communication, but that day, and in the months that followed, I learned. I'm happy to say that when Annie returned to Quebec she was almost bilingual and I had made a very good friend. On February 2nd, Angela Malik, Jim Brown and 1, left family and friends and began the second half of the ex- change. That night we spent in a hotel in Toronto with about 150 exchange students from across Ontario. The bus trip to and from Quebec, hotel accommodations and meals were paid for, corn- pliments of the government.
