First of all, I'm not a young student.  I'm a 71 year old graduate student at Rowan in NJ.  Because I was a WWII refugee from Vienna and because I have my passports with Nazi insignia and other documents, I go into the public schools and give talks to young people about the Holocaust and about my family's personal experiences in escaping to the US.  I have spent 1-1/2 hours at Central Elementary School in Haddonfield NJ in November talking to 5th graders.  I also gave a talk to a Hadassah chapter in Mt. Holly, NJ in November--about 1 hour.  I speak wherever I am invited and am usually well received
