Story and photo by Marisa McKnight

Thirty students from Denmark agreed that
in Texas some things — trucks, casual dress and food portions to name a few — are bigger.

The students, ages
17 – 20, were studying Texas literature, his- tory and game develop- ment at the Northridge Campus as part of their secondary education program at Denmark’s Odense Tekniske

Gymnasium. They spent four weeks exploring Texas on the program.

The students spoke of their Texas experiences at the Oct. 11 Student Life Diversity Conference held at the Eastview Campus.

The event also included a religious panel consisting of a Protestant pastor, a Catholic priest, and an Imam from a local Mosque.
