Follow the Caldwell Fellows in China

05.27.2009 | Posted by Cherry Crayton | Filed under Alumni Association News, Student News | Tags: Caldwell Fellows, China, Service |

Janice OdomSixteen Caldwell Fellows and another six NC State students left Raleigh on Sunday for a month-long experiential learning service trip to China. Joining them is Janice Odom ’94 PhD, right, director of the Caldwell Program. Follow her and the students as she blogs from afar.

Here’s a glimpse of Dr. O’s first entry, posted today from Shanghai:

Perhaps it is a Chinese parenting technique for raising well-behaved children that the beds are so very firm here; no child would ever think of bouncing on one. One simply cannot work up a bounce on these mattresses.

The Caldwell Program is the university’s original merit scholarship program and is supported by Alumni Association membership dues.
