Successful completion of graduate colloquiam in Liberal and Integrative Studies at UIS

Thanks to the guidance of Professor William E. Kline, I successfully completed the
Graduate Colloquiam for my MA in LNT degree at UIS. Now I have a fairly clear plan to pursue Philosophy and the Philosophy of Literature specializing in the identity issues of Multicultural writers in the USA, notably the Asian-American writers.

I will have on my faculty committee William Kline, Lan Dong, and Shoon Lio and peer advisor Marcellus Leonard.

My main investigations will focus on the identity issues of Asian-American writers - who they are, who they purport to represent, how do they create identities for themselves and others, and what are the interactions between them and the macrocosm of USA contemporary literature.
