Top ten things the student correspondents learned at the International Farm Management Congress last week:

10. Make sure the microphone is plugged in all the way when recording an audio interview.
9. When the British woman says she does not want her picture taken, she really means it!
8. Always be a half an hour early when waiting to on a tour, they may leave without you.
7. Do not bring any outside food such as Krispy Kreme or Panera inside teh Bone Student Center, they do not like it.
6. Do not let people print from your computer when they say their computer crashed at home.
5. Australian’s are from Australia and New Zealander’s are from New Zealand, never mix the two up.
4. Never say you like to eat kiwis in front of a New Zealander.
3. World Scholars know how to cut a rug on the dance floor!
2. Do not hit people on bicycles with your car on your way to the newsroom, to could potentially be dangerous, you could go to jail.
