back to China
The Center for Talented Youth has hired me to teach in Nanjing again this summer.
I eagerly took the job before Missouri Southern hired me. At that point, we needed the money. I am still glad to be going, but between CTY and Missouri Southern, I have four syllabi to prepare – not to mention completing revision of my book manuscript. This summer, I will broaden my experience by teaching Contemporary Issues in Chinese Modernization. (Last summer, I taught China-US Relations.) Besides teaching, I will spend a couple of weeks visiting friends and doing a couple of final interviews for my book manuscript. Terry had planned to accompany me, but the airlines have raised their requirements for using Frequent Flier Miles, and she decided not to spend the money. (She will stay home and pack, for which I owe her.)
