- Task (Page 86-88) Chinese Students in the US Describe Challenges of Cross-Cultural Friendship A It is hard to deny that even with greater diversity on university campuses, some American students still hold negative stereotypes of Asians, at a time when Chinese international students enroll in American universities in increasing numbers each year as undergraduates. B The existence of these stereotypes might explain why Chinese students are rarely seen at university functions such as sporting events, extracurricular clubs, or musical concerts. To many Americans, the Chinese international students are invisible compared with the larger populations of Americans or students from foreign countries other than China. C According to a recent report made by an Indiana University, Chinese students conf irmed that many have few or no American friends and are often unaware of campus life activities such as sporting events or extracurricular clubs. Instead, Chinese students often spend their free time involving in Chinese Student associations or Chinese Christian events. D Students also cited barriers between themselves and American students when they were asked to work in groups for class. They frequently reported that the first few times participating in the group was a stressful experience for them, as their American classmates often criticized their English, so some students thought that American classmates did not believe they added value to group projects, which ultimately made it diff cult for them to participate actively. One student explained that it wasn’t only his classmates who treated him differently but also his professors. He said, “I see the professors joking with the American students all the time. But they never joke with me before or after class.” E While most Chinese students want more American friends, few reported having more American friends than Chinese friends, and all students reported that their best friends were Chinese. One girl responded, “I don’t know how to make American friends. I sit next to them in classes and they talk to each other, but they never talk to me. I joined some extracurricular things a couple times, but that didn’t work either. I really want American friends.” F The report’s suggested remedies included having Chinese and American students room together during their freshman year, as well as providing better cultural sensitivity training for American staff and students. Breaking down stereotypes is not an easy task, but the best way to begin the effort may be to encourage more interaction between Chinese and American students. The more they communicate, the more they will understand that they are not different from one another. Only with more interaction can Chinese students integrate into campus life and be invited to activities by their American classmates.
