Terra incognita & Knee high and still growing

Michael Nocella (1988) studying chemistry at Illinois State University does undercover research in Dutch high schools. In three months he explores terra incognita using the NHL-University in Leeuwarden (NL) as his station. From the Chicago suburbs to the “rural” Frisian area, his study serves as an investigation of international student life. He takes a glimpse at (chemistry) teaching in high schools in the top of the Netherlands. Journals of personal exploration of wind mills, kroketten, stroopwafels and an inside view in Dutch family life. A pleasant report written in a vivid style showing opportunities of studies abroad. In Knee high and still growing he looks back at his school experiences and he explores parts of the Dutch social culture. More than a diary, less than a clash of civilizations.
