The ACC chemistry lab was recently given many chemicals and equipment no longer needed bv two companies.Presque Isle uoq . Corporation, and Dow Chemical Company. The Presque Isle Corporation previously used chemicals for the oxidation for the analysis of stone. Since that time, they have con- verted to x-ray anaiysis. Giving the chemicals to ACC saved the college at least $3,000. The Dow Chemical Company donated an infrared spectrophoto meter and a fluorometer, used to detect organic compounds. This equipment is valued at $10,000. They also gave ACC heating systems worth $1,000, an5l assorted glassware, also worth $1,000. Three analytical balances were also donated. ,, Wong Ying, a Chinese econ- omics professor, spent two weeks here at ACC. In a recent interveiw, Ying said that she was selected by the Chinese government to come to America primarily because of her skill in the English Language. The purpose of the trip is two- fold. First, she was to promote in personnal manner, understanding between the two societies of China natl the US. Secondly, she was to learn of the methods· American ed- ucators use in teaching and com- pare them with the Chinese. She beleives that the primary difference between the teaching methods of the two contries is par- ticipation. ln China, students learn almost exclusivly through the traditional memorization man- ner. In America, she observed, a combination of memorization and application, both practical and hy- pothetical, is used to teach. In addition, Chinese texts can be poor. "What they learn from textbooks is quite different from what is real." she said. On feminism in China, she said that the Chinese have been a- head of the US in one respect (job opportunities), yet behind in an- other (equality). Since she came to America, Wong Ying has learned to cross- county ski. "Behind movies, it's my favorite thing to do here." she said.
