Bargain, Buses, Food
Sudanese Coed Gets Americanized
By CHERYL WILSON'
A girl who thinks sales are out
of this world, "marvelous," etc
rho gets confused on a bus
not necessarily have tc
born in the United States.
There Is a kindred relationship
between all women in their
thusiasm for a SALE and tho
conrusion  of bus  transportation.
Slnco coming to the US three
months ago, Fawsia El Yamanl
has found "Americans a strange,;
progressive people In an exciting*:
country." Fawxla Is attending tho
college as a fine arts major from
the Sudan under'the sponsorship
of the Agency for International
Development.
She is one of six Sudanoso wo¬
men who chose to attend FSC bo-
cause ot her association with the
campus faculty members on tho
Sudan Project.
Limited Jobs
"The only poaltlona open to
women In my country are teach¬
ing, nursing, secretarial work and
medicine," tho 27-year-old- coed
explained. "My family tuts always
been Interested in the arts."
Fawxla has attended schools
for IB years. She learned English
in hex Intermediate phase of edu¬
cation (roughly equivalent to
American high school). At the
college level, English la tbe lan¬
guage of Instruction In tha Sudan.
As most Sudanese. Fawxla la a
Moslem. Aa such, abo does not
believe "in appearing in public
without our bodies covered." She
wears a tone to classes. The tobe
is the traditional Sudanese cover¬
ing made of white cotton material.
"We wear white because It re¬
flects the rays of the sun."
Fawxla la practical In more
than dress. She thinks sales are
"fabulous." Dr. Maxima A. Dan-
doy, assistant professor of edu¬
cation, ln whose house Fawxla
haa lived since her arrival In
Fresno, taught her to look for
bargains.
I.ikeo  Buses
Dr. Dandoy couldn't teach tho
Sudanese woman tho rigors of
riding a city bus however. On one
Jaunt in Washington, DC, Fawxla
ended up at A destination com¬
pletely alien to bar.
She also had trouble ■*'r"H-r
American food when tho first
came to this country. "Tho Sudan¬
ese diet constats of corn and Iamb,
and our way of cooking la differ¬
ent. Our foods are not quite aa
rich aa American dishes," she ex¬
plained.
Fresno itself hold a mystery for
Fawxla—fog. "It gives on* an In¬
teresting fooling to wake up and
see nothing." she laughed.
Fawxla haa felt the warmth or
American hospitality already in
her short stay. She says of Aineri-
cans, "They are a decent, pollto
people, Tery friendly, smiling and
always hurrying." ■
With the exception ot tho latter
description, Fawxla ' haa all th*
traits sho attributee to Amortauj
people.
