Asian Rocks!!

Thanks to Terri Duong and everyone who made Asian Night extremely successful! After that party, students seem to talk about it over and over again on campus. I also see a great opportunity that our Asian community integrate ourselves into the whole school further.

Many people I met on campus thought Asian students were different from others on campus. Trust me! Asian people here are much more proactive than others in their home country. Thunderbird is a well-known school in global perspective and international business. Beyond those projects and class discussions, you can learn more about Asia through different parties and club events. Understanding and appreciating the cultural diversity is the core what this school is about.

I also want to share my two cents with all Asian students here. Although we have tons of assignments, projects, and exams, we shall take these chances to let other people know more about our cultures, values, and everything we are proud of. After all, the tuition here is not cheap. I would consider studying here a tremendous investment and make it as worth as possible. How? Your daily interaction with your classmates, your presence in the party or campus event, even your favor beer in the pub can make further progress to integrate ourselves and other students.

Yes, I know. The pressure is heavy. On the other hand, what the most will you treasure and value on campus after ten years or so? Is it how you calculate the company’s PV or how you draw the positioning map for the case? For me, this program may be my last chance as a full-time student. I treasure every second I have here. English may be an issue sometime. Hey, it’s not our mother tone. Don’t worry that much. As long as you step forward, your friendly classmates are always around.

My English was terrible (and is still in trouble). I couldn’t even finish a sentence or tell the difference between “he” and “she” in the university. However, I tried to speak anyway and can do it better now. Try to hang out with your classmates from different countries. You will learn more that I do! Enjoy and take the chance. After the Asian Night, let’s keep going and rock!
