[quote=Anonymous]Please stop it 'crabs in a barrel' poster. I get tired of that on every YY thread. Some things can and should be imrpoved upon. They are brought up here and talked about openly. Some crazies post, some normal people post and eventually it averages out for the most part. Silence could imply concent or agreement. In the case of kids not going on the trip, perhaps it can be argued that it was a reasonable choice and not a forced situation but there are flaws with that argument which don't need to be rehashed. It will be more salient to think of it as a problem going forward. This is intended to be a yearly event and some of the funding issues need to be thought through.

As for the trip itself there were no major issues. However it was a very expensive tourist-type trip with only a very little bit of authentic interaction. For example, the "home stay" was only sleeping in a home one night getting in late and leaving early in the morning. The idea is to discuss things and improve on them for future grades. [/quote]
