~ 8 CSI students spending the spring term in China By Staten Island Advance May 16, 2010, 6:38AM College of Staten Island president Tomas Morales, second from left, and CUNY/Nanjing University program director Yang Zhizhong, second from right, pose with CSI students Matthew Greger, left, Walter Rozenfeld, center, and Ain Richardson, right, during their visit to China. By Michelle Checchi STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. -- When students head to college, they enter a world of opportunity, and eight students from the College of Staten Island are taking full advantage by spending four months studying more than 11,000 miles away from home. The students are spending the spring term studying in China. Seven are attending Nanjing University, while one student is studying at the City University of Hong Kong. The CSI students are living in modern dormitory facilities while studying in China. According to Ken Bach, director of communications at CSI: "This semester, students will also enjoy about 10 program-led field trips to historic and cultural sites in and around Nanjing." One of the highlights of the student excursions is a week-long visit to Beijing, the capital of China , where they will visit sites such as the Forbidden City, the ornate Lama Temple, and have the opportunity to climb the Great Wall of China. Any credits the students earn while in China are recorded on their CSI transcripts, and can be applied to their course requirements. Students studying at Nanjing University can also earn credit toward a certificate in CSI's Modern China Studies certificate program. "The purpose of offering this study abroad program is to provide students the opportunity to explore the world," Bach said. In addition, the program helps students "to better understand an important world culture and language, and to integrate an international dimension to their thinking and studies," he continued. The study abroad program is paid for by the students themselves, though there are aid and scholarship opportunities. Page 102 of 155
Since 1993, CSI has been sending students to study at Nanjing University. The school has offered study abroad programs for the past 30 years. Currently, the school sponsors 14 study abroad programs in eight countries, with six exchange programs. Following the spring semester, CSI will be sending about 30 students to take part in a one-month program this summer in Shanghai. twitter.com/siadvance -- facebook.com/statenislandadvance © 2010 SILive.com.
