Rowing with Chinese Characteristics
Faculty Sponsor: Paul Cooke
Historically, rowing has been a sport associated with Western culture; recently there has been an explosion of rowing in China at the amateur and professional levels. Anand will investigate the experiences of a select group of Chinese rowers and administrators to understand how cultural characteristics are shaping the growth and practice of rowing in China, all against the backdrop of China’s global economic boom.
