ÇÑ×ÓÊÓÆµPresident Dr. Tony G. Waldrop continued the ÇÑ×ÓÊÓÆµâ€™s successful relationship with Fuzhou University Zhicheng College in China on Monday, Aug. 11, during a meeting on the ÇÑ×ÓÊÓÆµcampus with President Zuping Zhu and a delegation of Chinese educators.
Waldrop and Zhu exchanged gifts – an ornate scroll containing a Chinese parable written in calligraphy for ÇÑ×ÓÊÓÆµand a piece of art glass from USA’s distinguished glass blowing studio for the Chinese visitors – in honor of their meeting. It was Zhu’s first visit to ÇÑ×ÓÊÓÆµand Waldrop’s first meeting with visiting educators from Fuzhou University Zhicheng College since he was appointed ÇÑ×ÓÊÓÆµPresident in February.
The 10-member group arrived in Mobile on Aug. 8 to learn more about ÇÑ×ÓÊÓÆµand the local area. Their stay has included faculty meetings, classroom time and visits to local restaurants and shopping areas in Mobile and Fairhope.
Representatives of ÇÑ×ÓÊÓÆµand Fuzhou University Zhicheng College signed a cooperative agreement to further study abroad programs in 2012 during a visit to China by USA administrators and faculty members.
