My name is Mino Bouthavong. I'm a Junior at Bryant College. My major is Computer Information Systems and my minor is Biotechnology. My interest in going to China is foremost to learn and observe China from a subjective point of view. In addition, I am very interested in the opportunity to be able to experience the culture and atmosphere of a different nation other than the United States. I hope to gain from my study of the China seminar a better understanding of the environment and its inhabitants.
