The Great Wall of China

Nothing has been a better conversation starter in my professional life than saying I was a Chinese major. Hamilton’s department is in a class of its own, and my time at Associated Colleges in China brought my Chinese language proficiency and cultural understanding to a level I never thought possible. I will soon begin a consulting position in London, and may move to Hong Kong with the same company shortly afterwards; I know that I would not be on the career trajectory I am now were it not for the education I received at ACC.
