News for our SU family in Asia

Dear friends,

It is an exciting time to be part of the SU family in Asia!

As director of international development, I have had the pleasure of meeting many of you since January. I hope to meet many more SU alumni, parents, and friends in the coming months as I travel to Asia.

Please enjoy this first issue of Syracuse University Update. It is a curated e-newsletter with news for and about the SU family in Asia.

You will read about the work Maxwell Dean David M. Van Slyke is doing in Asia. In our alumni spotlight, you will find out why Jason Ho ’06 is making such a significant investment of time in the alumni group in Hong Kong. And one of our alumni from Shanghai, Minhao Chen G’12, will be sharing his entrepreneurial journey at the Blackstone LaunchPad Entrepreneurship Conference on campus. I hope you enjoy these photos from our New Student Send-Offs in Hong Kong and Taipei, as well as an alumni get-together in Shanghai.
