Nov 4 - Prof Lunch w. Dr. Stefania Burk @ Asian Center Room 604
For our first Professor Luncheon of the year we were joined by Dr. Stefania Burk and eight attendees. She spoke to us about everything from her area of specialization -- medieval Japanese literature culture and society -- to her journey to becoming a professor at UBC over a Japanese meal of sushi and gyoza. We also had the opportunity to ask our own questions about careers in the field and the process behind researching Japanese literature. In addition, Dr. Burk asked about what we thought of the Asia department's major/minor programs and its courses and gave us insight into how they are evolving.
