Many of these events have become annual staples on campus, while others drift in and out of popularity. Needless to say, though, ViSA covers a vast breadth of activities, the scope of which is by no means comprehensive by this list. The descriptions below, listed in typical chronological order, elaborate some of our more regular events, each having variations within themselves. Annual East Rock Picnic Every fall ViSA kicks of the year with a low-key gathering among current and future members. Members take a trip up to East Rock, site of some of the most breath-taking views of New Haven. There, the entire organization becomes acquainted with each other, catches up from the previous summer, and welcomes the incoming freshman class to Yale, all against the backdrop of football, frisbee, and food.

Historians have shared a common view that Vietnam has got a fairly large cultural community that was formed around the first half of the first millenium before Christ and flourished in the middle of this millenium. That was Dong Son cultural community. This culture attained a degree of development higher than that of others at that time in the region and had its own characteristics but still bore the features of Southeast Asian culture because of the common South Asian racial root (Southern Mongoloid) and the water rice culture.

Computer Networks Part One: Jobs To Get to Viet Nam to Work Trained professionals and experienced executives have a very hard time finding work in Viet Nam from the U.S. The ultimate conclusion of every person I know who has tried has been to go to Viet Nam at his or her own expense and look for a position from there. Think of the expense as an investment, probably a pretty good one. If you're bright and energetic and you can deal with the cultural problems involved, Viet Nam and the international community needs you: you'll find something to do. You might think about acquiring some valuable skill before you go, though. Formal training in language instruction is easily acquired in evening classes here, and is a valued skill overseas. If you decide to go prospect for work, one of the best ways to go to Viet Nam and meet people who can help you is to go as a student, sponsored by a U.S. group or a Vietnamese agency who understands your objectives.

Geographical Center: Vietnam Alternate Names: Annamese Number of Speakers: Approximately 59 million Key Dialects: Northern Vietnamese (Tonkinese) Central Vietnamese (High Annamese) Southern Vietnames (Cochinchinese) I: Genetic Relationship: Located on the east coast of the Indo-Chinese Peninsula in Southeast Asia, Vietnam was ruled by China for ten centuries from 111BCE to 939CE, when many Chinese loan words entered Vietnamese. Because Chinese characters served as the medium of written communication people mistakenly think that Vietnamese is derived from Chinese or is a dialect of Chinese. Actually, Vietnam was a pocket of Chinese influence, as was Japan and Korea. Genetically unrelated to Chinese, Vietnamese belongs to the Mon-Khmer stock which comprises Mon (Burma) and Khmer (Cambodia). About 75 million people speak Vietnamese. For all demographic details see these great web sites. www.arts.monash.edu.au/viet/course.htm www.viettouch.com/vietnam.html II. History Vietnam was under Chinese rule for ten centuries. This caused the language to have many influences from Chinese. Most linguists do not feel that it was derived from Chinese, and feel that it has had its own "linguistic identity" for at least four thousand years. The first written form can be dated to the 11

Welcome to our Vietnamese Immigration Web Page Our purpose in creating this page is to familiarize readers with some basic knowledge of the Vietnamese immigrants' experience and provide additional resources for further study. Our specific intent is to give elementary and high school teachers access to information that will help them better understand the Vietnamese student and Vietnamese culture. This understanding will come through learning about Vietnamese heritage, life in the U.S. in contrast to Vietnam, and their family values and experiences. Although our focus will be on immigration and the life of the immigrant, we have included links to additional Vietnamese web sites, such as Buddhism and other religions, that are important when exploring the lives of Vietnamese people.

November 27 in History Inner Sanctum Vietnamese cinema hits the road After a month-long trip to the United States to show off his films, Vietnamese filmmaker Dang Nhat Minh is looking through a global lense. Thuy Binh reports. Reputed film director Dang Nhat Minh was surprised when the Viet Nam News asked him for an interview immediately after he returned from a lecture tour in the United States. Under the sponsorship of the East Meets West Foundation, 11 American universities invited Minh to present three of his films to academic audiences. The trip was very successful. At St Mary’s College, students had a very exciting discussion of Minh’s film. In fact, the president of Hamilton College wants to invite Minh to return to speak to students again. Born in Hue in 1938, Minh began making documentaries at the age of 28 and turned to feature films in 1975. His film Bao Gio Cho Den Thang Muoi (When the Tenth Month Comes) (1984), is considered a Vietnamese classic, and the filmmaker has won many prizes at domestic and international film festivals.
