南加州大学(USC)暑期重要活动安排

Dear Zhenying,

Please join us for a book talk with Orville Schell and John Delury on China's ascent from imperial doormat to global economic powerhouse.

Annenberg School of Communications and Journalism, ASC 204

University of Southern California

Los Angeles, CA 90089

Time:4:00 - 5:30PM

About the Book

Through a series of absorbing portraits of iconic modern Chinese leaders and thinkers, two of today's foremost specialists on China provide a panoramic narrative of the nation's ascent from imperial doormat to global economic powerhouse in Wealth and Power:China's Long March to the Twenty-First Century (Random House; On Sale:7/16/13).


南加州大学(USC)暑期重要活动安排The basic facts of China's rise to preeminence over the past three decades are well documented, but how did this erstwhile sleeping giant finally manage to arrive at its current phase of dynamic growth? How, after such a long and painful period of dynastic decline, intellectual upheaval and revolution, foreign occupation and civil war, did a country once derided as the "sick man of Asia" manage to break out of its old pattern of repeatedly failed reform efforts to burst forth onto the world stage with such an impressive run of hyperdevelopment and wealth creation?

By examining the lives of eleven influential officials, writers, activists, and leaders whose contributions helped create modern China, Wealth and Power addresses these questions. This survey begins in the lead-up to the first Opium War with Wei Yuan, the nineteenth-century scholar and reformer who was one of the first to urge China to borrow ideas from the West. It concludes in our time with human-rights advocate and Nobel Peace Prize laureate Liu Xiaobo, an outspoken opponent of single-party rule. Along the way, we meet such titans of Chinese history as the Empress Dowager Cixi, public intellectuals Feng Guifen, Liang Qichao, and Chen Duxiu, Nationalist stalwarts Sun Yat-sen and Chiang Kai-shek, and Communist Party leaders Mao Zedong, Deng Xiaoping, and Zhu Rongji.

The common goal that unites all of these disparate figures is their determined pursuit of fuqiang 富 强, shorthand for "wealth and power." This abiding quest for a restoration of national greatness in the face of a "century of humiliation" at the hands of the Great Powers came to define the modern Chinese character. It's what drove both Mao and Deng to embark on root-and-branch transformations of Chinese society, first by means of Marxism-Leninism, then by authoritarian capitalism. And this determined quest remains the key to understanding many of China's actions today.

By unwrapping the intellectual antecedents of today's resurgent China, Orville Schell and John Delury supply much-needed insight into the country's tortured progression from nineteenth-century decline to twenty-first-century boom. By looking backward into the past to understand forces at work for hundreds of years, they help us understand China today and the future that this singular country is helping shape for all of us.

July, 2013


Dear Trojan Family,
Commencement is always such a glorious day on our campuses, as our community comes together to cheer our newest graduates, and to honor their scholarly and creative achievements.  This year, USC awarded 13,284 degrees on that sunny day in May, and the special memories will remain permanently etched in the minds of so many Trojans.  Among the extraordinary highlights was the commencement address by Jimmy Iovine, who also received an honorary degree.  
In his speech, Mr. Iovine drew on personal stories from his illustrious career in the music industry, while invoking a few well-known luminaries, such as Bruce Springsteen and John Lennon.  His well-considered and succinct advice touched our graduating students, and a number of people in the audience asked for a copy of his remarks, which I am sharing with you 
here 
I am also sharing some magnificent 
photos from that morning, which I hope will give you a sense of its vibrancy, of the warmth and optimism that filled our campuses, and of the longstanding, beloved traditions that we embraced.  This special attachment will also tell you more about the six extraordinary individuals on whom we bestowed honorary degrees: John Gurdon, David Henry Hwang, Jimmy Iovine, Glorya Kaufman, Edward P. Roski Jr., and Gayle Garner Roski.  Their accomplishments—and the passion they bring to their work—should inspire us all.
I hope you enjoy Mr. Iovine’s speech, and that these photos convey the excitement we all felt that morning. 


 

  Yours truly,
南加州大学(USC)暑期重要活动安排 
C. L. Max Nikias
President

July, 2013

Dear Trojan Parents and Family Members,

The campus is buzzing with Orientation activities! New students and their parents are learning about academic expectations, exploring campus involvement opportunities, meeting faculty and staff and getting acquainted with life at USC. The Office for Parent Programs would like to extend a thank you to our June parent volunteers who have helped at Orientation:Barbara Boxley, Connie Buckley, Deborah & Larry Castro, Raquel DePiano, Martha Espinoza, Lucy & Chuck Huebner, Soraya Roman Fernandez, Kathi Nicolard, Pat Turner, Suesie Toole, Lily Savadian, Beth Slater, Maryann Spinella, Ramyne Khan Spire, Lydia Vazquez, Geetika Walia, Angie Wong and Don Zhu.

Many students may have returned home for the summer. Here are some more helpful tips on dealing with the summer transition:

  • Make sure your student knows that you are happy to have them home with you and that you missed them.
  • Communication is key. Your student has lived away from you for the last year and has developed new habits and a new lifestyle. Be flexible with them, but at the same time, encourage a respectful, adult relationship with you so you can freely discuss issues or problems.
  • Work with your student on establishing a budget and other financial management tools. The summer is a good time to review your student’s financial needs for the upcoming school year. This may also lead into a discussion on establishing career goals and how to reach them. For more advice and information, visit the USC Career Center’s website at http://careers.usc.edu/.
  • Conflicts may arise with curfews, visiting friends, household chores and financial issues, among others. Negotiate resolutions to potential conflicts quickly and ensure everyone in the family understands the house rules.

Trojan Family Weekend Registration Opens July 29

Student Health insurance is automatically added to the fee bills of domestic students enrolled in six units or more, international students enrolled in any number of units and all Health Science campus students enrolled in any class. If your student is covered by private health insurance which meets USC requirements, parents may request a Waiver of Health Insurance from the USC Student Health Service on a yearly basis. If the form is not filled out, the student will be billed for health insurance on their semester fee bill. Please access http://www.usc.edu/uphc(under Health Insurance)for waiver criteria.

Help Your Student “Be Well” at USC
Research shows that more and more students are coming to college as non-drinkers. The reality is that most of these students will be confronted with alcohol once they arrive on campus. In order to prepare students for this transition, USC requires every incoming student to take AlcoholEdu for College, an online course designed to reduce the risks surrounding alcohol. All incoming undergraduate students will receive an informational email about the course, which they must complete before arriving on campus.

Since parents play such a large role in influencing student alcohol use, USC also offers AlcoholEdu for Parents(visit http://parents.alcoholedu.com/ and use the following Login ID:P123961PARENT). Parents are encouraged to take this course and discuss alcohol use with their student before and after he or she arrives on campus. The Parent course will go live on Wednesday, July 24(the same day as the student course).

In addition to alcohol, there are many other health and wellness issues that students may experience as they transition to college. From sleep and stress to nutrition and healthy relationships, USC is committed to addressing all areas of health and wellness.
For more information about how parents can help their students “Be Well” at USC, contact the Office for Wellness and Health Promotion at 213.740.4777.

Stop by the Japanese American National Museum in downtown LA before August 25!
Visible & Invisible is a collaboration between the Hapa Japan Database Project, the USC Center for Japanese Religions and Culture and the Japanese American National Museum. Visible & Invisible reveals the long “mixed” history in the Japanese American community. The exhibition also tackles the history of racial segregation and anti-miscegenation laws that prohibited or even criminalized marriages between White and non-White peoples. Today, the Japanese American community continues to explore questions of belonging and identity as Hapa Japanese Americans expand notions of family and community, challenging us to imagine new possibilities for the future. The exhibit will close on Sunday, August 25. For more information, access
http://www.janm.org/exhibits/visible-invisible/ or the USC Center for Japanese Religions and at http://dornsife.usc.edu/cjrc/.

如果你也正在尋找冬季的室內美食新去處,不妨考慮位於舊金山downtown的摩登美食餐廳 Chambers。位於精品飯店Phoenix,低調卻又帶有70年代復古摩登味裝潢的Chambers,裡頭提供了多樣精緻餐點,餐桌旁緊鄰著吧台,讓大家能在品嘗美食的同時也能搭配適合的酒類。
低調大門+摩登裝潢
這間沒有招牌的復合式餐廳,附屬於知名精品旅館。因為餐廳建築外觀沒有招牌,門口也不見任何餐廳logo或菜單,所以非常容易錯過。就這樣,只有古銅色厚實的密室大門,低調且默默的等著大家來訪。推開大門,門口接待處旁的書櫃上放滿復古黑膠唱盤,充滿濃濃復古味,搭配上視覺摩登的牆上普普風圖飾及線條簡潔利落的燈具桌椅,時髦且現代感十足。除此之外,這間餐廳最為人知的就是吧台上方有個被霓虹燈包圍的slogan「Be Amazing」,一閃一閃的彷彿在對每位用餐的客人下了道神奇咒語。這可是很多人離開前必拍的照片之一。
高級食材,精緻上桌
前菜大推的就是鹽烤紫蘇蘑菇搭配義大利佛卡夏麵包。雖然在眾多明星餐點當中相較不起眼,但抱著嘗鮮的心情而點了它,卻發現每一口都是驚喜。鹽烤紫蘇的酥脆加上蘑菇的清香,最後搭配著口感扎實的佛卡夏麵包,真是讓人一口接一口停不下來。
夢寐以求香煎鐵板神戶牛
第一道料理要推薦的就是香煎鐵板神戶牛。神戶牛可以說是世界上最有名的牛肉,甚至連美國總統奧巴馬2009年前往日本時也點名想品嘗神戶牛,讓這細嫩的雪花牛更聲名大噪。點菜時, 服務生會詢問你要需要幾分熟的牛肉,端上桌的迷你鐵板上,躺著一片片帶有鮮嫩紅色吱吱作響的牛肉,旁邊放著特調牛肉醬汁及些許酸甜配菜。由於神戶牛的白色雪花脂肪有著如同大理石般的細膩,放入嘴後肌肉的嚼勁及油花在嘴裡散開的滋味,肌肉、雪花的味跟香的完美結合已經讓編輯我印象深刻。
肥而不膩精選豬五花
煙燻豬五花,也是榜上有名的必吃餐點之一。這個精選豬胸肋骨下方部位,肥瘦相間,層次分明,非常適合以煙燻方式烹煮。搭配上甜菜及番茄,一起食用,除了開胃之外也讓整道菜變得格外清爽。
優雅法式嫩煎鴨胸
法式嫩煎鴨胸也是不容錯過的一道令人驚豔的菜色。鴨胸肉部分呈現淡粉紅色,肥厚的鴨皮也因煎煮時使用的火候適當而酥脆。上面淋上一顆顆芥菜籽則為原味的鴨胸增添別樣風味。搭配上營養價值高的花椰菜及鷹嘴豆,讓整道菜色更為完整。
如果是男生或平日食量大的人,可能需要先墊墊胃再前往,不然就是荷包要有點深度了。地址:601 Eddy St, San Francisco, CA 94109 (415) 496-5178

《飛越太平洋》大型郵展今天隆重開幕(2014年3月6日)
經過長達3年半的籌備,大型郵展《飛越太平洋-中美郵件交流》(Pacific Exchange: China & US Mail)郵展在今天(3月6日)隆重開幕,郵展地點在在美國首都華盛頓的史密森尼國家郵政博物館。自從威廉.H.格羅斯珍郵館2013年10月22日在史密森尼國家郵政博物館開館以來,中國主題成為開館後的第一個特色郵展,展覽的主題為“自集郵看中美關係”。郵展將持續10個月,到明年1月4日結束。所有參觀均是免費的。
據中美集郵中心主任魏進發特别介绍,郵展通過郵件和郵票,從經貿、文化和社區三個方面來體現人性化的中美關係,講述相關故事,並通過175項展品,集中展示了從19世紀60年代到20世紀70年代處於巨變的中國;探討華人移民美國(現有四百萬美裔華人)的歷程。郵展的內容包括8個組成部分,其中用四個部分表現經貿,其中又分作清代、中華民國、度支部印刷局(即“白紙坊”郵票印刷廠),和中華人民共和國;兩個部分表現文化:國際交流,和郵政聯繫;兩個部分表現社區:華人在美國,以及中國農曆新年郵票。其中有許多珍品展出,例如著名的文革期間的郵票《全國山河一片紅》等。
郵展中的“美國國家郵集”收藏了與中美關係相關的重要郵票和郵件,其中大部分從未被公開展示。郵展網頁引用了鄧小平的話說:“我們兩國是隔洋相望的鄰居。” 這次郵展的海報,上半部分的龍圖來自美國2012年發行的龍年郵票之局部。它恰如其分地反映了美國人心目中對中國作為正在崛起的東方之龍的感受,以及中國人自稱為龍的傳人的說法。
它的展出是中美集郵界的一大盛事,表達了美國公眾對迅速崛起的中國的濃厚興趣和友好感情,也必將加深美國集郵者和美國公眾對中國郵票、中國集郵,乃至今日中國的進一步了解。所有熱愛集郵的華人讀者不要錯過這個難得的機會,及早安排好行程,在長達10個月的展出時間內,尋找合適的機會前往華府參觀。這次郵展將永遠載入中美兩國不斷發展的集郵史冊,我們衷心祝愿這次郵展取得圓滿成功,並祝愿中美兩國關係取得新的進展!
