Craig Posted March 14, 2005 at 12:23 AM Report Share Posted March 14, 2005 at 12:23 AM I was wondering if Universities such as BLCU and others had classes on christmas day. I know the government is offically atheist, and Dec 25th isn't a national holiday but i wasn't sure how that worked with schools that are largely populated by foreigners. If anyone could let me know that would be great Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liuzhou Posted March 14, 2005 at 03:48 AM Report Share Posted March 14, 2005 at 03:48 AM Yes, Chinese universities and colleges have classes on Christmas day. It's just another day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alleluia Posted March 14, 2005 at 09:27 AM Report Share Posted March 14, 2005 at 09:27 AM Well, a friend of mine is currently studying Chinese as an exchange student at Fudan university in Shanghai and there the foreign students had a Christmas holiday of about ten days or so. As far as I know the holiday was only for the foreigners' Chinese classes, so probably all other classes went on as usual. Don't know about the universities in Beijing though. Personally I'd like to know if they do this at Beida, since I'm going to spend next year there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sui.generis Posted March 15, 2005 at 09:53 AM Report Share Posted March 15, 2005 at 09:53 AM I was in class on both Chrismas eve and New Year's Eve last fall. It was quite depressing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aline Posted March 15, 2005 at 06:57 PM Report Share Posted March 15, 2005 at 06:57 PM yeah at Fudan they have hols for Xmas. That's because they have a great number of international students there. Anyway,at Tongji , we had a party in class on Christmas eve. We weren't supposed to but we convinced the teachers. No one feels like studying on Christmas Eve or Christmas Day.
