Show Ignorant of the outside world Dear Editor I was so excited to see a cultural geography class offered offered offered of of- this quarter especially one for night students But when I went to class on the first night it had been cancelled cancelled cancelled can can- celled because only six students students students stu stu- stu- stu dents had enrolled in it This was the only social studies class that offers that even teaches about other countries Are there even any history classes here that arent aren't American history classes classes classes clas clas- ses No In a day and age when Americans are increasingly ignorant about what is going on in the outside world we expect to be able to converse in English with everyone when w we visit a foreign country isn't it time that we start learning something about them After all we want to sell them our products d dont don't nt we For being the wealthiest nation in the world with the highest standard of living its it's a real embarrassment that many of us cant can't even locate other major countries on on n a a map We cant can't blame for not offering classes when so few of us care to take them Signed Vicki McPhail t t I yr o v 34 1 1 i. i 1 i. c |
