Five UK graduate students recently attended the 2013 International Graduate Student Conference at Shanghai University. The UK American Studies Center at Shanghai University selected the students to represent the University of Kentucky.
The conference aimed to promote an interdisciplinary and cross-cultural dialogue about Asia’s past and present. The UK graduate students presented papers that explored specific interrelationships between Asia and the United States.
The five students who attended were:
· Hui Chu, a doctoral candidate in social and developmental psychology
· Melinda Lio, a master’s student in ethnomusicology
