And here is a recent (and perhaps the last) photo of the Class of 2010 together with CAPS underclassmen:
CAPS students enjoy an evening discussion with university President David Skorton, who visited with the CAPS program in April. Included in this photo are CAPS students from the Classes of 2010, 2011, 2012 and 2013, and CAPS faculty Xu Xin, Allen Carlson and Haiyan Wang.
CAPS students enjoyed an open discussion with the President about the future of the CAPS program, Cornell’s unique relationship with China and Peking University especially, and ways in which the University can continue to provide for Cornellians despite the current economic climate.
At the end of April, CAPS students participated in a round-table discussion with Adam Levinson ’92 and Michael Zak ’75, distinguished and long-time supporters of the CAPS program. CAPS students appreciated the opportunity to thank the individuals who help the CAPS program thrive. In particular, students enjoyed a Q&A session with Levinson about his financial and China-related expertise.
Also in April, CAPS students were invited to participate in an intimate discussion with Prof. Thomas Christensen, the director of Princeton University’s China & the World Program. Christensen, a long-time supporter of the CAPS major at Cornell, discussed the Obama administration’s approach to U.S.-China relations, answered questions from CAPS students and provided career advice. Prof. Christensen also visited with CAPS students for a career-related workshop during the 2008-09 school year.
In May, the Class of 2012 coordinated an information session about the CAPS program, collaborating with upperclassmen and faculty to make the event a success. The Class of 2010 provided insider opinions on the major at the meeting, giving future 2013 and 2014 class members an idea of what to expect. CAPS Director Xu Xin reminded CAPS majors of the importance of Mandarin proficiency and keeping apace with the challenges of the program. CAPS Prof. Chen Jian explained why the CAPS major is increasingly relevant–and will remain so–in future years.
Now that it’s summer, it seems that the breakneck pace of the CAPS program has come down to more manageable speeds, but the feeling is only temporary. The Class of 2010 is busy embarking on their new careers, and soon the Class of 2011 will be gearing up for Beijing and the Class of 2012 will be leaving for Washington. Congrats, everyone, on another great year!
i wish you all a good luck.
