Affinity Groups: Did You Hear What Happened?
On November 15, 2024 the Asian Dental Student Club hosted its first Asian Language Workshop, with Mandarin Chinese being the focus for this session. V Ming, Kevin Lu and Jia Pan (pictured) led the workshop and introduced the audience to conventions and basic conversational phrases. Thank you to all who came to learn and practice their Mandarin. Look for more Asian Language Workshops in the Spring.
