Privet, kag dela? (Hello, how are you?)
Did you know that Bay Path is hosting an exchange student From Russia this year? Sixteen year old Dmitriy Kozhevnikov arrived on August 27, 2009 after a ten hour flight from his native country, Perm, Russia. He was greeted by the Yeager Family of Charlton, his host family for his year here in America. Pacific International Exchange (PIE)/Exchanging cultures sponsored Dmitriy’s year in America. He shares that he won this trip to America sponsored by the American Government. He states that the process was in three steps: first he had to pass a test surrounding his ability to speak English, next he was given a higher level exam further testing his ability to speak and write the English language, the third part targeted his maturity level and his ability to function independently abroad for a year. Dmitriy credits the “globalization” of the world, via the internet, as the impetus for bringing the American and Russian Youth Cultures together. Clothing styles, music, and foods are similarly liked by youth in both countries. Dmitriy’s goals include returning to Russia and attending the High Economics School (college) for five years, post high school, and entering the military upon completion of college. Dmitriy gave a presentation on Russian Culture on December 21st in the lecture hall. Here are some still images of Dmitriy's presentation.
