Faculty Tea Series
The Importance of Writing
Meet with Professor
Lin Chen | Tuesday, April 18 | 3-4 PM |
RSVP Professor Chen invites you to think about the importance of writing as both a major component of the core curriculum and a skill essential to your success in college. Why are there not required courses on speaking or listening or reading? What kind of writing are we learning or practicing in college? And how to do it well? You are expected to share your thoughts and experiences with writing in college. Open to students only.
Social Work and Philanthropy Practice in China: Effectiveness and Development
Professor Jin's research and practice focus on promoting the effectiveness of social work and philanthropy practice. Since he joined NYU Shanghai in 2015, he has worked with many non-profit agencies on evaluating program effectiveness, and further improving program design and/or execution based on program evaluation. Through the work, he has well connected with a lot of practitioners and better understood the circumstances of social work/philanthropy in China. Look forward to discussing with you who are interested in social work or philanthropy. Open to students only.
