Liz Stett, the State College High School student attending the World Affairs Seminar at Whitewater, Wisconsin. Liz thoroughly enjoyed her time at the conference, as there were at least 2 to 3 keynote speakers making presentations to the attendees every day. She met many other participants from around the world, and had the opportunity to share cultural experiences with them: in their dorms, while breaking bread at meals, and during the little free time allotted to them.
o She mentioned there were 2 unusual events which took place in Wisconsin: 1) a tornado warning, during which all students & faculty had to evacuate the auditorium and seek refuse in the basement (not an easy feat for 700+ persons), and 2) the World Soccer Cup taking place simultaneously with the conference - this spurred the students to stage their own World Cup, with several "countries" competing for the title.
o Liz created a poster, upon which were many photos of individuals she met during her time at the conference. She has kept in touch with many...
o Participants were teamed with others into Discussion Groups early in the seminar. Each group was assigned a topic upon which they were to formulate & present a Position Paper. Liz closed her presentation by reading her group's essay regarding Global Leaders' responsibilities to Leaders in
Developing Countries - a suggested How To...Manual, whereby
current global leaders must guide and encourage developing
country leaders in social, economic, and humanitarian
endeavors. All parties, both great & small must strive for
peaceful resolutions in all matters of conflict . And
without undue intimidation or harassment by the stronger
societies when influencing developing nation's citizens.
o We all agreed that Liz was a wonderful, refreshing representative from our region.

“If
we only listen to those whom we already see eye to eye, we
will never create better understanding, a concept that is
at the core of Rotary.”
-Martin G Molony, District 1160 Governor, Dublin Central,
Ireland
in The
Rotarian, January 2006

"Of
the things we think, say or do:
Is
it the TRUTH?
Is
it FAIR to all concerned?
Will
it build GOODWILL and BETTER FRIENDSHIPS?
Will
it be BENEFICIAL to all concerned?"
