International Groups

Groups that deal with international issues or languages have been few in number throughout the years of this school; however, there are some very significant groups that still exist to this day. The following groups show the International Groups that have been a part of or still remain as organized groups on campus.

• The English Club - The English Club was organized in 1938, under the direction of a staff member, Mrs. Mattoon. As she stated, "It is to be an honor society, based on scholarship and social qualities," (Salmagundi, 1938).

• The French Club - The French Club, a group that focused on the French culture, was established in 1982.

• International Students Club - The International Students Club was organized in 1990. Any interested student, whether American or international, is encouraged to join this group. The purpose of this group is to provide a support group for international students, to teach cross-cultural communication, and to learn about and teach different cultures and lifestyles. The International Students Club still exists today, and is very active, under the direction of Dr. Guy Gallagher.

• Amnesty International - Amnesty International was established as a group in 1994.
