Chinese Students and Scholars Association
UNH had her first Chinese student,Pingping Chih, from mainland China in 1981. Ms. Chih came from the Institute of Geophysics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and started her PhD program in Physics Department in the fall of 1981. Her family joined her later. In Durham, they might be the first Chinese family from mainland China. Since then, more and more Chinese students and scholars first settle down in Durham and start their career and American dream at UNH.Although almost any folks would choose leaving after finishing the program or getting better offer somewhere else, the size of Chinese Community in Durham still keeps enlarging. Now, we have totally about two hundred persons, including family members. The exact number unavailable because the personnels vary from year to year.
CSSA at UNH is a big family. Every single Chinese (from mainland, Taiwan and Hong Kong), American-Chinese, Chinese-American, or whatever, living in campus of UNHand the regions nearby, could be in principle considered belonging to this family.
