Life in Taigu: Comic Contest!
Maisy Byerly ‘14, Taigu Fellow
Forty-nine students from Class 1501, and thirty-nine students from Class 1402 made comics on the theme “Life in Taigu.” This unit was not just exciting because everybody left with a finished comic, but also because I was able to teach about something I love.

It was hard to predict which I would be then, but it’s even harder to say now.
