Summer 2011 Update

This summer 19 students studied at Nanjing Normal University for a 5-week Chinese language and culture program. This is a unique program since it pairs NC State, Saint
Augustine’ s College and Reserve Office Training Corps( ROTC) to come together and study Chinese. We also sent 16 high school students to join the
Summer Bridge Program in China. The Summer Chinese Class continued to be a success as 11 students studied Chinese
characters. 今年夏天, 19 名学生参加了南 京师范大学举办的为期五周的 中国语言和文化课程 。 这是一 个非常特殊的项目, 通过学习 中文将北卡州大 、 圣奥古斯丁 学院和 ROTC( 后备军官训练 团) 紧密联系在了一起 。 同时, 我们还有 16 名高中学生参加了 在 中 国 举 办 的 暑 期 汉 语 桥 项 目 。 此外, 暑期中文班也举办 的很成功, 有 11 名学生学习了 汉字 。
