Dear Alumni,

We are pleased to announce that our preparation for the 4/14 event to welcome

President Xu Zhihong goes well. At least one Nobel Prize Laureate, Professor

Rudolph A. Marcus from Caltech, will attend the banquet, thanks to our alumnus

Professor Wang Zhengang's invitation.

Below you'll find the detailed program for the event.

The alumni gathering in the afternoon is free for all alumni, and we sincerely

hope that more alumni can participate in it. In the same time there are still

limited seats available for the evening banquet, and alumni who are interested

in the banquet please e-mail ASAP to 'zeng@rand.org' to make a reservation.

Best regards,

PUAASC, Board of Directors
