09: SBU has a new President, Dr. Sam Stanley, and
his wife is Chinese American, Dr. Ellen Li. Her parents
are from Shanghai. When everything settles down we will
try to arrange an AIMP CEAS reunion with Dr. Li,
hopefully in time for the 10th
anniversary of the last group in AIMP to come to the US.
Joining the SB crew will be Dr. Kelvin Willoughby, now with Mahidol University
in Bangkok, Thailand, and hopefully everyone else can
make it too! Once he settles in and the fiscal crisis
affecting the University allows a reunion to happen,
everyone will be notified.
There will be smaller
gatherings in China - see notices above - until then.

Katherine, started her first day of classes. Her father
is WANG Zhiwen from China V. She became
the first child of any China alumni to become a Stony Brook University student. She said
she loves her classes. She came in September to attend IEC, the Intensive English Center, and placed so high in
the exam she was put in the top class. If she passed her
classes she was guaranteed admission to SBU - and of
course she did!
Here are photos of her at different events. She met
President Kenny at the Distinguished Alumni Awards
dinner where the first Chinese American was honored; her
graduation from IEC; and decorating her first Christmas
tree.
