Upcoming Exhibition
Connecting Cultures: China and the Haverford Experience
September 19 to December 19, 2008
Sharpless Gallery, Magill Library

who had made his fortune in the China trade. As well, artifacts from China
were brought into Haverford's collections. The first Chinese student was
admitted to Haverford in 1908, and by 1949, some dozen Chinese students
had attended.
