At the fourth International Conference of Alexander Von Humboldt in June of last year in China, HSU President Rollin Richmond signed an agreement with President Hu of XISU to establish Humboldt College, a special academic unit in China offering a comprehensive, American-style academic experience and facilitating multi-level coordination of diverse institutional projects.
Through a highly competitive process, the first 16 students were admitted to Humboldt College and taught a United States college curriculum for the first year, in preparation for their studies at HSU for their second and third year.
