Expert orientation

Tomorrow, I head to China once more, this time as leader of a study abroad program with four education students. John, my former graduate assistant, was recently hired as an instructor and serves our project coordinator.


We will be following the same itinerary as our group did in March, but we're spending just over a month.  First stop is Beijing, where we'll be climbing the Great Wall and experiencing a bit of China's historic culture. Afterwards, we go on to Jinan where we'll do some teaching at Shandong Institute of Commerce and Technology.  We'll finish up with a trip to the beach in Weihai.


There was a week long seminar before we pushed off.  On Thursday, four of our visiting scholars attended the class and gave us pointers on Chinese customs and culture.

Sounds like a terrific itinerary!

What does tomorrow mean? It is 5:30 pm here, but at home it’s 5:00 in the morning. I leave Weihai tomorrow and make a stop in Beijing. ...
