President of China Visits Yale

President Hu Jintao of China and President Richard C. Levin both said that cultural and education exchanges among young people arekey to developing stronger ties between Yale and China.

Looking out at the young faces in the audience gathered in Sprague Memorial Hall for his lecture on April 21,

Chinese President Hu Jintao said, "If time could go back several decades, I would really like to be a student oYale just like you."

Hu's declaration -- echoing as it did the ambition of Yale's first Chinese graduate, Yung Wing, over 150 years

ago -- was an affirmation of the close academic ties that flourished since then between Yale and China. Hu'svisit to the University, the first by any president of China, was indicative of the ways that those ties are

continuing to strengthen and expand.

The Yale campus was the final stop on Hu's trip to the United States, his first since becoming president of the

People's Republic of China. Hu had earlier visited Seattle, where he toured Microsoft headquarters with foundBill Gates, and Washington, D.C., where he met with President George W. Bush.

A 55-car motorcade brought the Chinese delegation from Bradley International Airport to campus. Because ofsecurity concerns, the area around Sprague and Woodbridge Halls had been closed off, but crowds of people

bearing banners of both welcome and protest lined the perimeter. Supporters and detractors had also gathereon the New Haven Green and on Old Campus, which was opened to student protesters for the first time in Yal

history.

The Chinese officials were formally welcomed to the University by President Richard C. Levin and the Yale

delegation at a ceremony held in Woodbridge Hall's Corporation Room, so named because that's where theUniversity's trustees meet. (See "A Meeting of Delegations".)

An exchange of gifts

After a brief private meeting, Levin and Hu took part in a formal gift-exchange ceremony, where the memory

Yung Wing was also evoked.

Levin presented Hu with a portrait of Yung Wing, who became the first Chinese citizen to earn a degree from

North American university when he graduated from Yale in 1854, as well as a book once owned by the historialumnus. Yung Wing, after returning to his homeland, launched a program to send other young Chinese to Ya

and other U.S. colleges of higher education, and he was one of the first Chinese diplomats to the United StateIn 1878, the alumnus gave his personal book collection of 1,280 volumes to the University for its East Asia

Library. That collection has now grown to over 700,000 volumes and is considered one of the finest outside ofChina.

The book that Levin presented to Hu, part of Yung Wing's original gift, was a compilation of Confucianteachings, representative both of the types of volumes common in the alumnus' lifetime and of those now he

by Yale. In presenting the gift, Levin hailed the academic ties that have brought over 4,000 Chinese students

Yale to study, as well as the current and emerging library collaborations between the University and China. Thlatter include a new program of librarian internships with the People's Republic of China, which has already

brought the first two Librarian Fellows from Sun Yat-sen University to the Yale University Library, as well as anew project for the organization and partial digitization of a special East Asia Library collection containing

Chinese historical documents.

Levin also presented Hu with a collection of the six volumes published jointly during the last decade by the YaUniversity Press and the China International Publishing Group as part of a collaboration by scholars from Chin

and around the world to publish works in both Chinese and English about major aspects of Chinese culture ancivilization. The publications to date are devoted to Chinese architecture, sculpture, society and politics,

archaeology, philosophy and painting.

Levin and Hu examine one of the 1,346 volumes that the Chinese leader presented to Yale for use by its faculty and students. Looking are (from left) Fawn Wang, assistant University secretary for international affairs; Zhou Ji, China's minister of education; Fox FellowGuoyou Song; and Jessica Leight, a Yale College senior majoring in economics who will be visiting China this summer.

In a gesture that echoed Yung Wing's gift, Hu presented Yale with 1,346 volumes in both Chinese and English

benefit the University's students and faculty. The gift from China includes titles in a range of disciplines in thehumanities and social sciences, and together they comprise a comprehensive and systematic introduction to

Chinese scholarship and learning. The Yale University Librarian for the Chinese Collection, Chi-wah Chan, in hinitial perusal of the books said, "This gift will add important volumes to our East Asia Library, and I am

particularly delighted by the many ways it will fill in gaps in our contemporary holdings."



Sprague Hall speech

Following the gift-exchange ceremony, the Yale and Chinese representatives went to Sprague Hall, where an

audience of Yale faculty, students and other invited guests had gathered to hear an address by Hu.

While waiting for the Chinese president's arrival, the audience had been treated to a concert of music by

students from the School of Music. It included performances by Mingzhu Wang, a first-year Master of Music(M.M.) student, on flute; Romie DeGuise-Langlois, a second-year M.M. student, on clarinet; Wayne Lin, a thir

year Artist Diploma student, on violin; and Scott Borg, a second-year Artist Diploma student, and MatthewRohde, a Yale College senior in the B.A./M.M. program at the School of Music, on guitar. The program conclud

with traditional Chinese folksongs, performed by Jie Gong, a first-year composition student.

The Sprague Hall address was history making on several fronts. It was the first speech by a Chinese head-of-

state ever broadcast live back to China; it was also the first speech at Yale to be web-streamed live campus-wide. (A web-stream of the event is still available at www.yale.edu/opa.) The event was also broadcast live o

the Yale Cable service, both in English and in Chinese, and the English version was cablecast by Citizens

Television and Comcast of New Haven. Members of the audience in Sprague Hall were able to listen to Chinesor English versions of Levin's and Hu's remarks via special headphones.

In his introductory remarks, Levin praised China's "ancient tradition of reverence for education," adding:

"During the past decade, you have made massive investments in your universities, strengthening the mostexcellent of those institutions while broadening access to higher education from less than 5% to more than 15

of your college-age population.

"Your nation's focus on education has contributed substantially to your historically unprecedented success in

lifting more than 200 million of your citizens out of poverty in the past quarter-century. We admire theseachievements, and, like most Americans, we are hopeful that the development of your economy will be

accompanied by continued expansion of the rule of law and strengthening the rights of individuals."

The conversations that have taken place in recent years between Yale officials and leaders of Chinese

universities have revealed "deep differences on important questions of values and national policy," noted Lev"But we also share values in common, chief among them the belief that only through education can one acqu

the capacity to think creatively and independently, and thus contribute to scientific and material progress as

well as to the humanistic and artistic expression that enriches society.

"We also agree on the power of personal encounter to deepen mutual understanding among those who startfrom different traditions, norms and values," said Levin. "Our experience mirrors that of thousands of U.S. an

Chinese scientists and scholars and tens of thousands of students whose interactions with one another can befoundation for a lasting peace between our nations." (The complete text of Levin's address can be found at

www.yale.edu/opa.)

In his speech, Hu also hailed the importance of the ties between Yale and China, noting, "Yale's motto 'Light

and Truth,' which is a calling for human progress, represents the aspiration of every motivated young man anwoman. ... The words of Nathan Hale, an American hero and Yale alumnus, 'I only regret that I have but one

life to lose for my country,' have also inspired me and many other Chinese."

Hu went on to discuss recent strides that China has made both economically and socially. He noted with pride

that China's Gross Domestic Product (GDP) grew from $147.3 billion in 1978 to $2.2257 trillion in 2005, butpointed out that "despite the success in its development, China remains the world's largest developing countr

with per capita GDP ranking behind the 100th place. The Chinese people are yet to live a well-off life and Chin

still faces daunting challenges in its development endeavor."

Over the next 15 years, Hu said, China will pursue a "scientific outlook on development that makes economicand social development people-oriented, comprehensive, balanced and sustainable."

Hu stressed that "putting people first" is an especially important component of this approach, saying, "Nothinis more valuable in the universe than human beings. ... We will vigorously promote social and economic

development, protect people's freedom, democracy and human rights according to law, achieve social fairnesand justice and enable the 1.3 billion Chinese people to live a happy life."

Regarding his nation's international relations, Hu told the audience: "Today, China holds high the banner of

peace, development and cooperation. ... It genuinely wishes to enter into extensive cooperation with othercountries. It is inclusive and is eager to draw on the strength of other civilizations to pursue peace and

development through cooperation and play its part in building a harmonious world of enduring peace and

common prosperity."

Noting that United States and China both have vast territories and diverse cultures within their borders, Hu

said: "Closer China-U.S. cooperation serves the fundamental interests of our two countries and peoples and isalso of far-reaching significance for peace and development of the whole world. ... Global peace and security

now face new challenges, such as fighting international terrorism, preventing the proliferation of weapons of

mass destruction, protecting the environment and human habitat and combating transnational crimes. And it exactly in these fields that we share important strategic interests. ... I am confident that our relations will moahead in a healthy and steady manner, and contribute to the well-being of our two peoples and bring greater

hope to people around the world."

Describing cultural diversity as "an important driving force for human progress," Hu said, "As history has show

in the course of interactions between civilizations, we not only need to remove natural barriers and overcomephysical isolation, we also need to remove obstacles and obstructions of the mind and overcome various

prejudices and misunderstandings. ... Exchanges in culture and education and among young people serve as bridge for increasing mutual understanding between our two peoples. They are also a major driving force for

healthy and stable growth of China-U.S. relations. Yale is a forerunner in conducting China-U.S. educational

exchanges and provides an important platform for cultural exchanges between our two countries."

Yale has accepted over 4,000 Chinese students in the past 20 years, noted Hu, and now has more than 80 joprojects with China in culture, science and technology, and education. "Last summer," he said, "Yale sent the

first group of students to China for internships and some among them became the first foreign interns to worwith China's Palace Museum. ...

"To enhance mutual understanding between young people and educators of the two countries," continued Huannounce with pleasure here that we have decided to invite 100 Yale faculty members and students to visit

China this summer. I'm sure you can look forward to an enjoyable experience in China." (Details of the summprogram will be finalized in the upcoming weeks.)

Hu concluded by quoting the old Chinese saying: "As in the Yangtze River where the waves behind drive onthose before, so a new generation always excels the last one."

He added: "Young people represent the hope and future of the world. They are full of vitality, new ideas andcreativity. I sincerely hope that the young people in China and the United States will join hands and work to

enhance friendship between our two peoples, and, together with people of other countries, create a better wofor all." (The full text of the Chinese president's speech is available at www.yale.edu/opa.)

Hu laughs at Ernesto Zedillo's suggestion that the Chinese leader would make a great Yale professor.





Questions from the audience

Prior to the address, members of the Sprague Hall audience had been invited to submit questions for Hu. The

were presented by Ernesto Zedillo, director of the Yale Center for the Study of Globalization and formerpresident of Mexico. Due to time constraints, Zedillo only had time to pose two questions -- which, he said,

reflected common topics raised by audience members.

Noting that there is "much discussion and little agreement" in the United States as to whether China represen

a "threat" or an "opportunity," Zedillo asked: "Is there agreement in your government, Mr. President, aboutwhat the U.S. represents for China?"

Hu replied, in part: "Both China and the United States have come to be of significant influence in today's worland both countries shoulder important responsibilities for world peace and common development. ... Our two

countries should not only be stakeholders, all the more, we should become parties of constructive cooperation

"I'm sure this view of mine will certainly win the support and endorsement of the Chinese people."

In posting his second question, Zedillo began by noting the rapid economic growth that China has experiencedover the past quarter century due to economic freedoms by reforms initiated by the nation's leaders in 1978.

added: "There is always the question of whether or not, a system that allows economic freedom whilerestricting political freedom will encounter serious problems of social unrest in the long run. Is this a concern

the Chinese government? Does the Chinese leadership have a strategy to enhance civil liberties and religious

freedom in China?"

In his response, Hu said he didn't believe it was fair to say that China's recent achievements are due merely teconomic reform, noting that the nation has also seen political, cultural and other changes.

China's "sustained and rapid" economic development, he declared, "in itself has demonstrated the fact thatChina's political system suits its economic development.

"In the future," Hu said, "we will continue to make efforts in the light of China's national traditions and the wiof the Chinese people to actively, prudently and appropriately move forward the political restructuring and

develop a socialist democracy.

"In the future we will make efforts to further enrich the formats of democracy and expand the orderlyparticipation in the political field by our Chinese citizens, and we are also going to further implement thestrategy of running the country according to law. We will continue our efforts to ensure that the Chinese peop

better exercise their rights of democratic election, democratic decision-making, democratic management anddemocratic supervision as provided for in the law."
