Alumni Profile: Chunmei Wang
Chunmei Wang is a native of China, and first came to Louisiana because
her husband was attending graduate school here.
“I also heard that UL’s M.S. in Communication program has a very good
reputation and its public relations concentration ranks high,” said
Wang.
Wang said that one of the most challenging yet rewarding experiences
she had at UL Lafayette involved her work as a graduate teaching assistant.
“For me, it was not just teaching, but a process of learning.
Coming from a completely different culture
and speaking English as a second language, I improved my English language
proficiencies and communication skills (as well as cultural awareness)
by working with Louisiana's undergraduates.” Now, Chunmei is working on another degree — a master's in accounting at California State University at Los Angeles. Reflecting on her experience at UL Lafayette, Chunmei recalls it as “a small but extraordinarily diverse community where I had a great time meeting people of different cultures and backgrounds. They really helped me broaden my perspectives. The professors there were very helpful and instructive.”
