“Through the programs of the Center of Chinese Studies, we can learn, study, evaluate, and analyze events in China, and, as a result, become more knowledgeable and educated people."
Stephen is pleased to be a member of the Advisory Council. He believes that “the Center should be a source of learning about China through a variety of programs, because we should listen to different opinions and profit from the experiences of many different people over a range of topics.” Lesser had many opportunities to travel around Asia and through his experiences, he has developed a strong passion for its culture. Even today, Lesser continues to learn new developments in Asia, and believes that the Center for Chinese Studies can provide others with the opportunities.
