布朗大学早期中国学生
||
In 1906 the Chinese government sent forty students from Tien Tsin University to be educated in the United States.
They attended the Harvard summer school and were then placed at Cornell, Amherst, M. I. T., Boston University, Harvard, and Brown.
The five who entered Brown, all in the sophomore class, in the fall of 1906 were Chen Ju-Hsiang, Chou Tsung-Hua, Ho Hou-Wei,
Hua Yu-Peng and Ma Tai-Cheng. None of them graduated from Brown. The last three named all received Ph.B. degrees from
the Sheffield Scientific School in 1908. Later students were Chen Cheng Chong ’15, ’16 Sc.M., Liu Tsung-Fah ’15,
Chun Ki Kee ’19, Lin Kuo-Hoa ’20, Wong Paak Kam ’23, and Chung Kam Tuk ’27. One family sent five members to Brown,
Zue Sun Bien ’12, Fu Sun Bien ’17, Richard Pang-Nien Bien ’24, Paul Beh-Nien Bien ’28, and George Sung-Nien Bien ’33 Ph.D.,
and one (Chu Nien Bien ’38) to Pembroke. In 1933 Kuo-P’ing Chou ’35 won the newly instituted Brown University scholarship
offered at several Japanese and Chinese universities and came to Pembroke as a junior, transferring from Yenching University.
In 1945 the Alumnae Association held a Kuo-P’ing Chou Day to augment a fund which had been started the year before to help
her and Yenching University, both in need because of the war. Siheung Daniel Rhee came from Korea in 1927, graduated in 1931,
remained in the United States, became a chemist, started a firm to manufacture elastic thread, and sent his son, Michael Rhee ’55, to Brown.
