DOMINO'S PIZZA NOBODY KNOWS LIKE DOMINO'S. How You Like Pizza At Home
Feeling scared, disoriented, lonely or just plain awful is perfectly normal for University of Kansas students during the first weeks on the Hill.

However, students who have had similar experiences say these feelings are real.
"It took me a while to adjust to all the changes," said Tami Woolley, Liberal senior. "Making friends as soon as possible can help a lot."

KU center helps foreign students adapt to unfamiliar surroundings
Applied English Center provides learning skills language instruction
By Carmen Phelps Special to the Kansan
Egypt and Japan.
For many out-of-state students, adjusting to college life in a different atmosphere is difficult. But some University of Kansas students must adjust to life in a different country.
With the help of various educational programs provided by KU's Applied English Center, foreign students can prepare for college life in the United States as they learn a different language.
At the beginning of each semester the students are tested on their English skills to determine course placement. In order to prove English proficiency, students must achieve a test grade of 80 percent or better.
Each semester, approximately 375 students enroll at KU through the AEC. They arrive from countries including Mexico, France, India,
But helping foreign students learn English is not the only service the AEC provides.
The AEC also offers programs in language instruction, cultural orientation, teacher training, and research and leadership. Charles Seibel, director of the AEC, said the programs improved communication between native and non-native speakers of English.
"We provide counseling for these students as well as helping them cope with any other problems they may be having academically," he said.
"Doing things that activate the students' knowledge of things that are familiar to them, and then incorporating that into what is being taught, makes the learning easier," she said.
The AEC also offers a special course called "Classroom Communication for International Teaching Assistants," Seibel said. This course enhances the English proficiency and teaching skills of international students who serve as graduate teaching assistants in the University's undergraduate courses.
Mary McGuinness, lecturer, said that in-class activities were effective methods of instruction.
Students from departments such as economics, political science, mathematics, physics and chemistry attend these courses.
McGuinness said the center's dedication to providing international students with these services helped to promote cultural understanding among students and an appreciation for the values of others.
