<div dir="ltr">Dear Fellow Asian Enthusiasts,<div><br></div><div>Congratulations on completing a most unusual and unprecedented semester! </div><div><br></div><div>Tammy Rosner from the USG International Office sent the following email to all campuses about the upcoming System Council for International Education (SCIE) meeting and its corresponding Regional Council meetings. </div><div><br></div><div><span style="background-color:rgb(255,229,153)">The Asia Council will meet on January 29th at 2:00 p.m.</span> A link to the meeting will be set up by the USG office at a later day. I will forward that to you when I receive it. In the meantime, please mark your calendar and think of items to discuss. </div><div><br></div><div><b>One important item on the agenda: <u>a new chair must be elected</u></b>. This is my last year of chairing the committee. </div><div><br></div><div>And, please help me bring additional members to this council. It would be great (and easier) to have more faculty involvement throughout the USG now that we can meet electronically. </div><div><br></div><div>Best wishes for a restful and peaceful holiday season. </div><div><br></div><div>Eric Spears, PhD</div><div>Chair of the Asia Council </div><div><br></div><div>-------------------------------------------------------------------------<br><div class="gmail_quote"><br>
