Even after so many years graduated from Ohio State, I still miss the golden fall of the Oval on campus.
Later this month, I will be transitioning from a city of 23 million to a world-class institution of diversity and vibrancy. I am excited.
I plan to make a cultural exchange while I am on campus. For the first time, our office and the East Asian Studies Center will together host an Asian Culture Workshop in September, aiming to increase campus awareness and understanding of Asian culture. During the workshop, an informative presentation comparing Asian and American educational systems will be presented, and an international student panel will convene to share their own educational experience.
I would also like to let you know that your support has made a difference in our work and in the engagement of greater China.
In this newsletter we will feature the most recent formation of our first Shanghai advisory and executive boards. I joined as a member and the entire experience was more than a full charge of buckeye spirit.
We will also share the first career fair we co-hosted for the Chinese students and alumni in Beijing and Shanghai in August with American Universities' China Association.
In addition to all the "outdoor engagement" in all parts of China, the China Gateway is regularly visited and greeted by university and corporate partners, alumni, parents and prospective students.
Even though our functions are more diversified, we work in unity and know the essence that unites us.
Let's go Bucks!
