Chinese students visit Chico State

This article was published on 02.14.13

About 30 junior high and high school students from the prestigious Taiyuan No. 2 Foreign Language School in the Shanxi province of China toured the Chico State campus on Tuesday, Feb. 12. They were accompanied by school officials and Consul of Education Cuiying Xu from the Chinese Consulate General in Los Angeles. Chico was the first stop on a schedule that includes visits to multiple campuses, including Stanford, MIT and UC San Diego. Chico State President Paul Zingg’s trip to China last year led to the visit. University officials are looking to attract students from the region, and are also looking into study-abroad partnerships.
