In addition to the monthly meet- ings, the students had to com- plete projects and keep journals. The projects were done in groups of three or four, and completed over a two-month period. Gilligan's group did a comparison of the histories of the United States, Australia, and New Zealand, Popson'’s group studied the geography of Australia and New Zealand and Morgan's group looked at a current day Australia. The students will get high school and college credit for the trip. Area delegates will take a bus from Scranton to Philadelphia, and fly to Los Angeles. The Penn- sylvania delegates will meet the ones from California and fly non- stop to Sydney. The entire trip will take about a day. The participants will start in the south of Australia and end in Brisbane. They will study the outback, the rainforest, and ex- amine coral at the Great Barrier Reef. They'll visit a sheep farm, a local school, and the Sydney op- era house. They'll also stay in homes and farms of local families. “It'll be a lot of work, but it'll be a lot of fun too,” said Popson. Stu- dents will also eat native foods like vegamite and kangaroo. “I've always wanted to go to Australia,” Gilligan said. “It’s so isolated from from everywhere else.” “The night sky will be very dark,” said Morgan.
