Bing Han: China
Find Bing in GRCC's new
promotional video.
Bing Han is from China and is majoring in
Business Management. His goal is to transfer to the University
of Washington in the fall of 2010.
Bing first came to America as an exchange student. He attended Woodinville High School from January until
June 2006. Instead of going back to
his hometown, his teacher in China encouraged him to continue his
education in the U.S.A. Bing
chose Green River Community College.
During his first year he took Intensive English classes
and then transferred into the
High School Completion Plus Program.
Bing likes GRCC because of the
small class sizes and it is less
expensive than a university. Bing
also enjoys working on campus. He
is a Marketing Assistant in the International Programs office
and has worked on a variety of
projects including creating videos
and
websites for prospective Chinese
students.
According to Ross Jennings, Vice
President for International
Programs, "Bing is an amazing guy
– when he says he wants to be the
Bill Gates of China, don’t bet
against him. He combines a
Renaissance man mentality and
curiosity about everything, with one
of the most positive personalities
of anyone I know (and I know a lot
of very nice people). I asked him to
do an informal marketing video with
students from a new sister school,
and he and his sister school partner
Sophie did a great job. Then, on
their own, they came up with a
beautiful brochure with graphics and
pictures, all in Chinese, describing
our
high school completion plus
program, just because they thought
it might be useful. Bing also made a
Chinese website for Grammy
Award-winning singer
Jason Mraz,
which his agent authorized, just
because he likes his music. He also
is an avid runner, biker and golfer.
Bing rocks. Bill Gates, look out."
By the way, Bing makes a guest
appearance in the new
promotional
video. See if you can find him?
