Today I found another article that talks about exchange students from thailand being messed over in Pennsylvania, when they were forced to manual work with paychecks that were being taken deductions from as well as examples of students that came to U.S.A to study english and got placed to a spanish speaking area. I believe this is another good article that I can use as contra argument but also as a good example of what to avoid when applying for exchange student program.
