Savannah,

I agree with Fireshifter. In addition, some program staff and classmates (such as mine) have never encountered a real live vegetarian before. It does present positive opportunities for veg'n education.

It also presents opportunities in learning tolerance, patience, discretion and humility. And yes, one does have to smell, and at some point, touch and handle animal parts. But, disgusting as it was, I figure I can save 100 times more chickens than the two dozen or so I was instructed to prepare during my internship. So, get a clothespin for your nose :) swallow your pride and emotions and deal with it. It too shall pass, and you can then go out and save thousands of chickens not yet killed.
