http://www.nytimes.com/2008/05/21/opinion/21bell.html --- I've been teaching political theory at Tsinghua University here since 2004 and I've found that almost all of my students are driven to do good for society. So I wasn't surprised when, as word of the disaster came out, hundreds of Tsinghua students lined up overnight at a Red Cross station to donate blood and supplies. Others went to the earthquake zone, more than 1,000 miles away, to distribute aid. Now I'm hoping events can dispel another false impression: that young Chinese are xenophobic nationalists who cheer for their country, good or bad.
