Nichols' Cross Campus Critical Issues Program celebrated Chinese culture and traditions with a "Dining across the Regions" feast prepared by Sodexho Services and folk music and dance performed by the Greater Boston Chinese Culture Association.

Nichols senior Bo-Young Line introduced the performers. Gu-zheng instruments were played by Shin-Yi Yang and Kai Leung Chow.

Liwen, who specializes in Chinese song and dance, performed several pieces, including "My Emotion," derived from the Tang Dynasty Daoism. The lyrics of the piece were written by Zheng Banqiao, a well-known painter of the eighteenth century.

Many thanks to Professor Mary Trottier and her class for organizing this special celebration, to Jim Douglas for the entertainment, and to Chef Aaron Hill for the tasty cuisine.
