Greeks Don’t Criticize Government Says Student
Maria Dimiliou, an American Field Service student from Greece, notes freedoms in the United States lacking in Greece.

The 17-year-old from Larissa is living with the Dean Bailey family in New London for the school year and contrasts Greek and American schooling. She explains Greece would require 14 to 16 subjects and about five hours of daily study, making the academic schedule heavier than in the United States.
