          Funds were awarded for travel by the following CSULB departments:

  • Three faculty members in the Art Department, David Hadlock, Yu Ji, and Kay Kvapil,, who will be seeking exchange relationships with several fine arts schools, including those in Shanghai, Tiajnin and Beijing.
  • Three faculty, John Attinasi, David Dowell, and Xiaoping Liang, and ten graduate students from the Department of Linguistics who will study the teaching of English as a Foreign Language at six universities, including Qingdao University.
  • One professor in Teacher Education, Shuhua An, who will chair a symposium on technology and teaching as well as explore new linkages in teacher education.
  • One professor of Criminal Justice, John Wang, who will visit Fudan University in Shanghai to pursue exchange with both academics and local police.
  • One graduate student in German (NAME?), who will study the history of German involvement in China.

          The recipients will be asked to prepare a brief report of their visit and make a presentation to the Association, so that members can learn from these scholars, too.
