Resources

When alumni first arrive in Beijing, they can certainly benefit from some of the local knowledge gained from years of experience from other alumni.  In an effort to share some of that knowledge with whoever may need it, we have compiled this list of resources in the hope that our collective ‘wisdom’ and experience may benefit our entire community:
