FACES
The Forum for American/Chinese Exchange at Stanford (FACES) is a group
of students, faculty, and community leaders, whose mission is to improve
the future of U.S.-China relations through education and grassroots diplomacy
among young American and Chinese leaders. In order to accomplish
this goal, they created a student leaders conference, On Common Ground.
Every spring selected Chinese and American students come to Stanford University
for a week-long program of academic, cultural, and social activities.
A second conference is held in China the following fall, where students
share results from team projects. http://faces.stanford.edu
