We had an excellent day today! We started the day with a history of Bridgwater, and then I accompanied Tiffany on her Student Government interviews. We solicited a lot of good information about their student union, officers, and clubs. It is drastically different than the ASB format we have at Columbia Basin. Tiffany wrote her little hand off trying to get all of the information down. They also gave her a copy of their Student Union Constitution, so she has a good resource in which to refer.
We also met with Mike Robbins, the Vice President of Bridgwater College. He explained the UK College/Education setup to the students, so they better understood the structure. And then two of the administrators, Rachel and Alistair, took us on a nice hike through Quantock (an area of beautiful countryside). It was a 3 mile hike and really spectacular! Cori and Tiffany took loads of photos. We saw old houses, sheep, and gorgeous scenery.
As I blog we are at a student rock concert in the HUB...yes, they call their student union building the HUB too. The student group is really good. Lots of American covers...right now, they are playing Born to Be Wild. The internet access here has been a little "dodgy," but I think we have gotten it "sorted." We will continue to blog as often as possible.
Cheers!
