Posted on August 11, 2014
ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø President Dr. Tony G. Waldrop continued the ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø’s successful relationship with Fuzhou University Zhicheng College in China on Monday, Aug. 11, during a meeting on the ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø campus 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 ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø and a piece of art glass from ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø’s distinguished glass blowing studio for the Chinese visitors – in honor of their meeting. It was Zhu’s first visit to ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø and Waldrop’s first meeting with visiting educators from Fuzhou University Zhicheng College since he was appointed ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø President in February.
The 10-member group arrived in Mobile on Aug. 8 to learn more about ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø and 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 ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø and Fuzhou University Zhicheng College signed a cooperative agreement to further study abroad programs in 2012 during a visit to China by ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø administrators and faculty members.
