As an HNC student, you will have the opportunity to connect with Hopkins alumni networks worldwide. Prior to Thanksgiving, the Hopkins Shanghai Alumni Club
organized a fall hiking trip to the Huihang Ancient Caravan Trail or 徽杭古道. The 徽 stands for Anhui Province, and the 杭
stands for Hangzhou, which is located in Zhejiang Province. This ancient trail
was used for centuries by Huizhou merchants to transport goods between the fertile
interior (Anhui) and prosperous east coast (Zhejiang), and the 25km path is
(mostly) paved with ancient stones which date back to the Tang Dynasty. HNC American Academic Coordinator Angela Chang
tail-ended her fall recruiting trip to Shanghai and Hangzhou with the hiking
trip and spent two days in the company of twelve other Hopkins alumni and
friends, enjoying their time away from the city.
