2018 Diplomat Program Orientation GUIDE In partnership with CET Academic Programs Diplomat Program 2019 Orientation Guide Intentionally Blank Here is what our students and staff have to say about the JSA Diplomat Program: “China is a great place for young people to study. Beijing, the national capital, is a modern, cosmopolitan city with all the American necessities like ATM machines, Starbucks, great public transportation, fabulous universities and museums, and genuinely wonderful people who are warm and welcoming to American students. Beijing is a very safe and friendly city. I should know. I’m a parent. I bring my kids with me to China often. China is a place that’s always welcomed us with open arms.” -- Professor Elvira Masson, Academic Director, JSA Diplomat Program “China is really important to know about because our countries are so interdependent on economic and environmental issues. The experience of learning how to navigate in a foreign culture has been amazing. I definitely want to go into international affairs now.” -- Boyd Wolking, JSA Diplomat Alumnus “The best part of the JSA Diplomat Program has been the Chinese buddy program where we have met high school students from China. It’s been extraordinary because now I have friends in China. Also, the stereotype that I’ve always thought of as China was completely broken when my Chinese friends told me what modern China really is like.” -- Adrian Gillem, JSA Diplomat Alumnus “The food is amazing! Learn the word for dumplings in Chinese and you’re set. I never used to eat vegetables before I came here to China, but now I do because Chinese food is insanely good!” --Shane Batteler, JSA Diplomat Alumnus “Graduates of this extraordinary program are so much better prepared for college from living and studying in a residential college environment. They’ll also be more effective leaders in their professions now that they understand how different countries and cultures work. Watching our students learn to operate effectively in a foreign culture this past summer was truly exhilarating. Many of them had never traveled outside the United States before. In a few short weeks this summer, they learned to do things like how to bargain – in Chinese – for goods in the local market. That’s important training and builds confidence for their future when they may be at the negotiating table representing the United States on a trade deal. Preparing these American young leaders for future success in our global economy is what this program is all about.” -- Dave Viotti, CEO Emeritus of JSA 1 TABLE OF CONTENTS PROGRAM OVERVIEW 3 WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT 4 TUITION, SCHOLARSHIPS & FUNDRAISING 7 Tuition Additional Costs Fundraising Overpayment & Refund Policy MEDICAL & HEALTH INFORMATION 9 Immunizations Medical Insurance RESIDENTIAL LIFE 10 Housing Banking Communication WEATHER, CLOTHING & PACKING 12 COURSE SYLLABUS 13 SAMPLE SCHEDULE 14 I’VE BEEN ACCEPTED, NOW WHAT? 15 Passports & Visas Transportation Shanghai Excursion ENROLLMENT PROCEDURE 17 Contact Information Parental/Guardian Permission Form Student Information Form Tuition Payment Form 2 PROGRAM OVERVIEW Congratulations on your acceptance to the JSA Diplomat Program! For more than 80 years, JSA has empowered young people to thrive in our increasingly interconnected world. Our international programs prepare young leaders for college and provide them with the 21st century skills they need to be successful in our global economy. Those skills and competencies include knowledge of global economic and political processes, the ability to communicate and work well with others (especially across cultures), critical thinking, problem solving, creativity, and innovation. Each summer, young leaders from across the United States travel to Beijing, China, to learn about modern China and the art of diplomacy. Hosted on the campus of one of China’s premier universities, the JSA Diplomat Program aims to provide America’s future leaders with the skills to represent their country effectively on global issues. During the month-long session, you can earn college credit for courses in Chinese history and language. You’ll also have a chance to develop leadership skills through interactions with Chinese and American officials on political, economic, and social issues. Taking university-level classes in a residential environment will pre- pare you for success in college. Having a depth of knowledge of China and Chinese language and culture will give you a leg up in whatever field you pursue - whether in business or government, law or international relations, or engineering, the arts, or medicine. China is an exciting place. It’s the world’s fastest-growing major economy. You’ll have a chanceo s t ee this economic engine in action in modern-day Beijing, host of the 2008 Summer Olympics, and the site of some of the most historic landmarks in the world. From trips to the Great Wall, the Forbidden City, the vibrant city of Shanghai, and many other historic sites, you’ll have hands-on experience with a culture that dates back nearly 5,000 years. You’ll participate in a youth exchange with local Chinese high school students and join in service-learning projects with non-profit organizations in and around Beijing. Through these experiences, you’ll sharpen your language skills and learn about youth culture and contemporary issues in China. But studying abroad isn’t just about learning a foreign language; it’s about understanding the local culture as well. Whether learning calligraphy, practicing tai chi, or becoming an expert on the local neighborhood’s dumpling and noodle stands, you’ll learn how to navigate a new culture and make lifelong friendships along the way. “Simply interacting with Chinese people on a day-to-day basis forced me to learn and think in new ways. From purchasing fruit from a local vendor to giving the taxi driver simple directions, these interactions enabled me to engage with a new culture and learn things that I otherwise wouldn’t have learned. Studying abroad literally changed my life. I am confident it will do the same for you.” Elliott Nguyen, JSA Alumnus This packet will provide you with the detailed information you need to prepare for your JSA Diplomat Program experience. If you have any questions, you and your parents should feel free to call Felice Judkins, JSA Admissions and Enrollment Coordinator, at 202-591-3726, or contact via email at [email protected]. 3 WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT Academic Enrichment The JSA Diplomat Program is offered in partnership with Washington, D.C.-based CET Academic Programs. CET has a long and distinguished history of running academically enriching study abroad programs (you can read more about their history and programs at cetacademicprograms.com). Institutions such as Duke University, Georgetown University, University of Chicago, Vanderbilt University, and Yale University have partnered with CET for their study abroad programs. While they send students around the world to countries such as Japan, Italy, Jordan, Vietnam, and the Czech Republic, their most established programs are in China. The JSA Diplomat Program combines the academic and study abroad expertise of CET with the academic, public policy, and leadership development expertise of JSA. You will enroll in two courses during your time in Beijing. The first course will focus on modern Chinese history and politics. This is an introduction to the history and culture of China from the emergence of the Chinese state to the present day. Effective diplomacy and business leadership requires an understanding of the power structures and sources of influence within a society. This course will introduce you to the political systems and structures in place in China today, as well as provide a basis for comparing U.S. and other Western democratic systems and for addressing major issues in U.S.-China relations. Since you’re traveling all the way to China, we don’t want you to be confined to the classroom in an academic “bootcamp” atmosphere, this is a hands-on course, with frequent fieldwork, including visits to historic and cultural sites and meetings with policy experts, non-governmental organizations (NGOs), and government officials. Your second course will focus on Chinese language (Mandarin Chinese), with special emphasis on learning Chinese for day-to-day travel and survival. Classes will be taught by Chinese faculty members in small groups to give students individualized attention. These groups will ensure that students have a thorough understanding of the subject matter. We take an experiential-learning approach to this course, as well. You will be given opportunities to practice your new language skills in fun and encouraging ways, from buying souvenirs at the Great Wall to arranging sightseeing events with your Chinese friends. In addition to the academic coursework, students will have program-organized activities with local high school students to practice language skills and promote cross-cultural communication. You’ll also develop an under- standing of contemporary issues and further your language abilities through service-learning opportunities at local non-profit organizations in Beijing. You can apply for credit at your high school or intended college or university, and we encourage you to begin that conversation before you depart for China. We will assign letter grades for the courses that you complete while abroad. The total number of credits received will be based upon the requirements of your home institution. Class grades are based on midterm and final exam grades, quizzes, homework, attendance, preparation, and class participation. You will be in class a total of 65 hours during the program. More information will be provided in the course syllabus. A sample is located in this packet. CET will distribute official copies of transcripts along with a letter certifying your enrollment in the program and a description of the courses completed. The transcript will be stamped by Beijing Union University. Please note that JSA and CET will not automatically forward your transcripts to your school.

  • The Construction of Anti-Physical Culture by Chinese Dynasts Using Confucianism and the Civil Service Examination
    PHYSICAL CULTURE AND SPORT. STUDIES AND RESEARCH DOI: 10.2478/v10141-011-0004-x Be a Sedentary Confucian Gentlemen: The Construction of Anti-Physical Culture by Chinese Dynasts Using Confucianism and the Civil Service Examination Junwei Yu National Taiwan College of Physical Education, Taiwan ABSTRACT Although there has been a growing body of research that explores Chinese masculinities within imperial China, the connection between masculinity and physical culture has been neglected. In this article, the author argues that Chinese emperors used Confucianism and the civil service examination ( keju ) to rule the country, and at the same time, created a social group of sedentary gentlemen whose studiousness and bookishness were worshiped by the public. In particular, the political institution of keju played a crucial role in disciplining the body. Behavior that did not conform to the Confucian standards which stressed civility and education were considered barbaric. As a result, a wen -version of masculinity was constructed. In other words, an anti- physical culture that strengthened the gross contempt towards those who chose to engage in physical labor. KEYWORDS China, confucianism, gentleman, physical culture, civil service examination Current Western ideals of how men should behave have dominated the standard setting discourse against which other forms of masculinity are measured and evaluated. Set against the ‘macho’ stereotype circulating in the West, images of Chinese men do not conform to this type of masculinity, and the same associations of manliness do not exist. Yet pre-modern Chinese have nonetheless sought to define the normative ideal of male behavior, as this article will demonstrate. Therefore, masculinity is never a monolithic concept.

  • UNIVERSITY of CALIFORNIA Los Angeles the How and Why of Urban Preservation: Protecting Historic Neighborhoods in China a Disser
    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles The How and Why of Urban Preservation: Protecting Historic Neighborhoods in China A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Urban Planning by Jonathan Stanhope Bell 2014 © Copyright by Jonathan Stanhope Bell 2014 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION The How and Why of Preservation: Protecting Historic Neighborhoods in China by Jonathan Stanhope Bell Doctor of Philosophy in Urban Planning University of California, Los Angeles, 2014 Professor Anastasia Loukaitou-Sideris, Chair China’s urban landscape has changed rapidly since political and economic reforms were first adopted at the end of the 1970s. Redevelopment of historic city centers that characterized this change has been rampant and resulted in the loss of significant historic resources. Despite these losses, substantial historic neighborhoods survive and even thrive with some degree of integrity. This dissertation identifies the multiple social, political, and economic factors that contribute to the protection and preservation of these neighborhoods by examining neighborhoods in the cities of Beijing and Pingyao as case studies. One focus of the study is capturing the perspective of residential communities on the value of their neighborhoods and their capacity and willingness to become involved in preservation decision-making. The findings indicate the presence of a complex interplay of public and private interests overlaid by changing policy and economic limitations that are creating new opportunities for public involvement. Although the Pingyao case study represents a largely intact historic city that is also a World Heritage Site, the local ii focus on tourism has disenfranchised residents in order to focus on the perceived needs of tourists.

  • A Dictionary of Chinese Characters: Accessed by Phonetics
    A dictionary of Chinese characters ‘The whole thrust of the work is that it is more helpful to learners of Chinese characters to see them in terms of sound, than in visual terms. It is a radical, provocative and constructive idea.’ Dr Valerie Pellatt, University of Newcastle. By arranging frequently used characters under the phonetic element they have in common, rather than only under their radical, the Dictionary encourages the student to link characters according to their phonetic. The system of cross refer- encing then allows the student to find easily all the characters in the Dictionary which have the same phonetic element, thus helping to fix in the memory the link between a character and its sound and meaning. More controversially, the book aims to alleviate the confusion that similar looking characters can cause by printing them alongside each other. All characters are given in both their traditional and simplified forms. Appendix A clarifies the choice of characters listed while Appendix B provides a list of the radicals with detailed comments on usage. The Dictionary has a full pinyin and radical index. This innovative resource will be an excellent study-aid for students with a basic grasp of Chinese, whether they are studying with a teacher or learning on their own. Dr Stewart Paton was Head of the Department of Languages at Heriot-Watt University, Edinburgh, from 1976 to 1981.

  • From Carp to Dragon the Shanghai List and the Neoliberal Pursuit of Modernization in Chinese Higher Education
    From Carp to Dragon The Shanghai List and the Neoliberal Pursuit of Modernization in Chinese Higher Education Jeremy Cohen School of International Service: B.A. International Studies College of Arts and Sciences: B.S. Economics University Honors Advisor: Dr. James H. Mittelman School of International Service Spring 2012 2 FROM CARP TO DRAGON: THE SHANGHAI LIST AND THE NEOLIBERAL PURSUIT OF MODERNIZATION IN CHINESE HIGHER EDUCATION Do global university rankings reflect an assimilation of widely held transnational views about education or are these rankings the product of historically and culturally contingent national experience? This study examines how the emergence of the first global ranking—the Shanghai Jiao Tong University Academic Ranking of World Universities (ARWU)—reflects the intermingling of dominant global discourses about higher education with Chinese realities and asks what role ARWU has played in the restructuring of power and knowledge in Chinese higher education under conditions of globalization. A number of methods are employed—including the historical contextualization of ARWU, a critical review of its methodology, and interviews with Chinese students and scholars. The analysis demonstrates that ARWU is both a product and an instrument of neoliberalism in the Chinese context. Allied to a specific discourse of excellence and quality in higher education, it reproduces the national narrative of modernization that is the hallmark of Chinese neoliberalism. ARWU also builds legitimacy for policies that restructure higher education
