January 10th, 2012
Please note: A visa information workshop will be held during your pre-program session on Tuesday January 10th, 2012 (FAH 132, 3:30pm-6:15pm). At this time, someone from the Education Abroad Office will review in detail the China visa application process and requirements. The Education Abroad Office will be responsible for sending all passports and visa applications together to the visa processing service, and will have them all sent back to our office. On receipt of returned passports with visas, Education Abroad will notify you to pick them up from the EA Office.

Flight and class information
We dedicate the first class meeting to visa applications and send them, bundled, to a consolidator. I urge everyone to attend this meeting to meet the group, the Study Abroad folk who have helped us, and to process the visas. For those enrolled over 2 credits, China Sampler meets on alternating Tuesdays from 3:30 - 6:15 PM in FAH Room 132.
1/10 - visa applications (Study Abroad folks will join us)
1/24 - TBA
2/07 - Taliesin Thomas, AW Asia - YOU WILL NOT WANT TO MISS THIS!!
She will speak on contemporary Chinese art.
2/21 - TBA
Beijing 3/8-3/17
3/27 - TBA
4/10 - Summary
We'll use the class time for lectures and discussion about China. For 2 credit extended studies students the class is optional; however, the lineup is compelling: Taliesin Thomas, Director, AW Asia New York (linked to the right), Shannon Bassett, Assistant Professor, USF Architecture, Jeanne Travers, USF Theatre & Dance and Kun Shi, Director of the USF Confucius Institute have agreed to visit our class and discuss their relationship to Chinese culture. Thomas will discus contemporary Chinese art; Bassett, her proposal for an exhibit and installation for the Hong-Kong Shenzhen biennale on urbanism/architecture debuting in February 2012, for which she will travel to China; Travers, Chinese dance traditions that she has studied and presented at Minzu University in Beijing, and Kun Shi, ethnic shamanism in China.
Stay tuned: reading film lists will be posted to Blackboard soon.
Have a wonderful break, everyone and do not hesitate to email with any questions or concerns here, or at efc@usf.edu.
