This celebration begins today with red lanterns, fireworks and the traditional New Year's dinner of rice flour dumplings. Xu Jing, a genetic toxicology student said, ''especially with IhP flllinP<;P hrtlirfau nnminn I'm fnnlinrt " ..wiuuj VUHIU15, X 111 lccilllg llUlllGdlCtt. She has a tape from her family in China. "I listen to it one time each day," she said. Huang Peng-Chun, a physical chemistry student, said, "I hope American people will have a good time with us." The language barrier has been the main problem for the Chinese students. Xu Jing had English in middle school and took a one month course before coming to USC. "I could hardly speak English." Xu Jing has been at USC for four months and said it is difficult to communicate. She audits her courses because she cannot follow her teacher. She is taking Oral Communications in English. * Huang Peng-Chun said, "I feel a language shock." He told of trying to find a certain type paper he needed for his chemistry course. "The clerk was very helpful but it was aiincuit to communicate." Huang said he applied to live with an American family or student so he could learn more about the culture and the language but he was turned down. Twenty faculty members from three institutions came to Columbia to study the English language teaching methods, natural sciences, computer science and engineering. The Chinese scholars are expected to be here for two years. "I like the Thomas Cooper Library the most," said Xu Jing, "I've never seen such a beautiful library. I spend all my spare time there. I'm very impressed by the service of the library. I needed some information on mutation research, and they were able to get a copy from Charleston. I was very grateful." Xu Jing works at Environmental and Health services with Dr. Edward Oswald doing research on genetic toxicology. They perform micronucleus tests to detect cancerous * mutations in industry and the environment. Yan Ju-Rang, a mathematics student, lias published two papers on ordinary differential equations in China. He hopes to have another paper finished in a year. Yan said his situation for studying is much better. "There is more information available, and I work closely with faculty, unlike in China."

Although the students do not have a car, they go shopping and frequently are taken around by USC faculty members. Huang Peng-Chun said, "The weather is very warm in Columbia and so are the people." / /* m m? / au ^l! ? ? ? I 'vui ^ctroiina sweeineart Valentine^ Day eetheart Ad," Friday, February 12th i ?
