Bridging a divide
UGA's extensive public
service and outreach in
China has led to an array of
opportunities for students
to study in a country that was
once off limits to outsiders
UGA Law student Monika Dobbs walks up stairs on the Mutianyu
section of the Great Wall of China in June. Dobbs spent several
weeks in Beijing and Shanghai with 22 other law students par-
ticipating in the law school's annual study abroad program.
China has undergone an unprecedented building boom in the
past decade, adding 500 million square feet of commercial
space in Beijing alone. Some historic preservationists fear the
new modern development will wipe out what's left of old China.
