Oberlin Shansi was established in 1908. Though some things have changed, the commitment to our international partners and to do good have remained the same.
An important part of cultural exchange is reciprocity. Oberlin Shansi brings scholars from Asia to Oberlin College to study, research, and learn about U.S. pedagogy.
Oberlin Shansi offers grants to Oberlin College undergraduates to help fund projects in Asia during Winter Term or Summer Break.
Shansi collaborates with varied partners to organize and fund programs in the U.S. and Asia.
Oberlin Shansi has collaborated with other organizations to put on large academic conferences, including one in the spring of 2012 on nuclear energy. The symposium, Fukushima: Lessons Learned? coincided with the one year anniversary of the Great Tohoku earthquake, tsunami, and Fukushima Daiichi nuclear disaster.
