Belmont Hosts Chinese Delegation
On Thursday, October 19, Belmont University hosted the official provincial delegation from Taiyuan, Shaanxi Province of the People's Republic of China, to finalize a Sister City partnership with Nashville, Tenn. The Sister City relationship provides Belmont students the opportunity to network with both local and Chinese government agencies and business firms seeking to trade with China. It also provides the university a provincial and city-level introduction to leading universities in Taiyuan, a city of 9 million people and capital of the Shanxi Province.
Dr. Howard H. Cochran, Jr., Professor of International Economics, gave the keynote address entitled, “Nashville-Taiyuan: Creating a Future Together.”
