Chinese Chamber Member Quote of the Month |

"There is a lot of interaction between Central Ohio and the Chinese-speaking world that does not appear in local media; being a member of the Chinese Chamber plugs us into resources that we and our clients need to succeed." "

从社区学园到一流美国名校：一个普通学生的逆袭之路
From Community Colleges to a 4-Year Degree: A Path with Many Benefits
|
|
Representatives from Columbus State Community College and the Ohio State University joined San Mateo College, UC Berkeley, UMass, Lone Star Community College, and the University of Houston in helping Chinese parents understand the financial and social benefits of their children beginning their bachelor's degree studies in the US at a two-year college.
Columbus Chinese Chamber chair Monica Xia shared her own experiences as a Chinese person who, when pursuing her US degree, began at Columbus State Community College, and, after earning a BSBA at the Ohio State University, went on to work in the auto industry and earn an MBA from UMich-Ann Arbor.
Increasing the number of Chinese-speaking visitors to Central Ohio - including students - is a win-win for the schools, as well as the community.
