First Asian Studies major graduated!

Elliot Sutton will be our first Suffolk student to graduate with a major in Asian Studies in December!

Elliot is a very international person. He is from Latin America and speaks several languages. In addition to his course work at Suffolk, he spent time studying Chinese in Beijing at Tsinghua University (often dubbed China’s MIT). Elliot’s spoken and written Chinese are very good.

Members of the Asian Studies Program met with Elliot recently for a final review of his experience with our program. He said our language courses at Suffolk prepared him very well for his study experience in China.
