The study-service term is one of three innovations in the new Goshen plan under which the four local students will study next year, The study-service term is available to all students as an option in fulfilling the international education requirement of the school, and has been chosen by 300 students for the 1968-69 school year. The study-service units will be
NATALIE OSTENDORF located in the Caribbean area and Central America next year. Units are being considered in French, Creole, Spanish and English language areas. As the name states, the term abroad will include seven weeks of study of the host nation and seven weeks of service in a voluntary service or Peace Corps type of assignment. Students who took part in pilot projects last summer taught English, performed medical duties, and helped manage building projects, to name only three. In the new plan of education, students who do not choose the term abroad will devote a trimester on campus to intensive study of an international area, such as Latin America or Asia.
