| | CSSA主席换届,征召候选人 |
各位UIUC的中国学生和学者们,
CSSA 2006-2007委员会任期即将结束,非常感谢大家一如既往的支持,特别是全体CSSA志愿者的努力工作下,成功地完成了本届任期的工作。回首过去的一年,从最开始的资金募集,打折卡的发行制作,一系列Workshop的举办,迎新生活动,新生Orientation,新生bbq活动,CSSA出游,答谢志愿者Party,校友网络联系制作;到之后的中秋晚会,中秋志愿者party,冬季滑雪活动;以及最近的Workshop和盛大的春节庆祝活动,其中都留下了每一个志愿者的辛勤的汗水和大家的支持。同时CSSA下属俱乐部组织的很多体育活动,OCEF的捐款活动,都使得我们大家在这个中国人社区中的联系越来越紧密。CSSA名为中国学生学者联谊会,他的使命就是为了促进大家的交流,为大家提供服务,而本届CSSA的所有活动也都是从这个宗旨而出发的。
依照CSSA章程,CSSA主席任期为一年,实行主席组阁负责制。本着公开、公平和公正的原则,CSSA现在开始征集CSSA 2007-2008 主席候选人。只要热心乐于为全体中国服务的学生和学者,都可以成为候选人。
候选人资格:1)为UIUC注册的中国学生或学者,或其家属。2)于2007-2008任期保持其与UIUC的关联身份。3)承认并遵守本会的章程。4)愿意为全体CSSA成员及中国人社区服务。
从目前开始接受CSSA 2007-2008年度主席候选人报名,截止日期为3月21日。在截止日期前,候选人须提交以下材料:1)个人竞选宣言以及竞选纲领。2)个人简历。3)具体的施政纲领。请将以上材料Email至:zhangyang0416@gmail.com。
如果最后只有一名候选人,则采取等额选举的投票制。如果有两名及以上候选人,则进行差额选举。
CSSA是大家的组织。希望大家在毕业的时候不要忘记当时在机场或者Terminal给自己接机的学长,不要忘记给自己提供临时住宿的同学,不要忘记和自己一起在体育比赛中合作的伙伴,不要忘记在中秋的时候和你一起赏月、娱乐的好朋友。CSSA不是特殊的组织,这些你的学长、同学、伙伴和好朋友就是CSSA。希望能够有更多的人加入CSSA,担当起这份责任,你所作的工作就是给你身边的人以快乐和帮助。谢谢!
此致
张杨

中央电视台14集大型纪录片
《大洋彼岸》- 美国留学生活
候选人征集
在美国留学、访学的各位中国学生学者、曾经是留学生的各位朋友:
您好!
作为留学生,您与国内的同龄人处在不同的学习、生活环境,因而对于许多问题或许有着独道的见解。
远离家乡的亲人,您或许希望和兄弟姐妹分享你在异国他乡的苦辣酸甜,再和父亲母亲说上几句贴心话。作為也曾在美留學的電影專业工作者,
我們希望能给广大留学人员提供一个展示自我、思考总结的机会,让中国民众对于出国留学的意义、对于我们留学生这一群体有更加深刻全面的了解.
因此我們共同制作了《大洋彼岸》紀录片系列的第一集《寻梦洛杉磯》。
2006年一月在中央电视台新闻频道播出后, 引起各界的積极關注和反响.
中央电视台現已委託我們摄制另外十四集. 摄制工作已經展開,
我們现在于美国东岸,西岸及中部地区征集候选人。
每位最终入选本部纪录片的留学人员,将可能有机会在约30分钟的时间里向中国的电视观众讲述自己的故事,分享留学经历,讲述人生感悟。入选者还可以根据兴趣,就关于中美教育制度异同、当代青年人的特点
与使命、留学海外的收获与挑战等诸多话题中选择一两个发表看法。
如果在您的爱人、朋友、同学、同事当中,有人有着独特的留学经历,我们也欢迎您推荐他们作为我们节目的候选人。当然,如果我们对他们进行采访,一定会同时尊重他们本人的意愿。
為了讓我們对你有初步的暸解,
请感兴趣的同学认真填写所附表格,将填好的表格发至PalettePictures@gmail.com.
并注明:Oceans Away
Subject。表格联系方式部分请详细填写,但是问答部分可以不拘一格:可以只就其中一两个方面集中发表看法,也可以就每一个问题简单写出自己初步的想法。假如您有比较系统的想法,但是没有时间整理成文字,
也可以要求摄制组的工作人员与您联系,通过电话进一步交流。
感谢您阅读此信,并期待您的积极参与。

各位校友,
很高兴在最近有机会和各位校友见面。UIUC的共同经历把我们大家联系在一起。在上海我们有一个伊利诺大学校友会。它既是美国伊利诺大学校友会的一个分支机构(Shanghai Club, UIAA),也是上海欧美同学会的一个分支机构(上海市欧美同学会伊利诺大学校友会)。前者得到UIAA的承认,而上海市欧美同学会也是一个独立的法人单位,是海外归国学子相互联络的一个民间团体。各位校友都是从伊利诺大学回到上海的,当然就是Shanghai Club, UIAA的成员。但是如果要参加上海市欧美同学会(全上海有超过5000名以上的会员,美国的著名大学基本上都有分会),需要填一张申请表。如果那位校友有兴趣,请和我联系。我现在是会长。
It will be my great pleasure to serve all of our alumni in Shanghai.

Hi,
Everyone. Due to your great effort, CSSA has done a lot since our group formed in the June. We have picked up more than 150 new students and provide housing for them. We got our great discount card for our Chinese students, and got great funding from different sources. We made two workshops to facilitate our students’ career. Public relation has also got much information from our survey. Our new student orientation proved to be very successful, and our ongoing Quad Day, New student BBQ, Moon Festival are all
on the way.
Hereby, on behalf of the CSSA 2006-2007 Committee, and on behalf of myself, I will say “Thank you very much.” You effort to CSSA and our Chinese students are highly appreciated. Eventually, we are all volunteers. And you are all invited to our Volunteer Appreciation Party at

Free Food provided (mostly like a dinner, however, if you can bring something, fell free to do that)
This party is open to all volunteers of CSSA or people who are willing to be as volunteers for CSSA. Volunteers of CSSA are not only for CSSA 2006-2007, but also the CSSAs before. If you know someone who used to be as volunteers for CSSA or who is willing to be as volunteers for CSSA, fell free to invite them to come.
