Informant Criteria

Your cultural informant for the semester must:

1) be able to meet with your whole group twice during the semester, preferably in College Station/Bryan, and yes, it must be face to face, no conference calls etc.

2) have lived in their culture of origin at least till age 17

3) have been in the U.S. and/or hanging out with Americans for at least a semester

4) not be an American who has lived or been raised abroad (theirs is a weird 3rd culture, also interesting, but not suitable for our purposes here)
