Exchange Agreement 

Enclosed is a copy of the Educational Agreement between 

Jinan University and Simon Fraser University, signed by 

President Yang and me on October 6, 1981. As you probably 

know, this arose out of a visit I made to Jinan University 

last March when discussions on a possible Agreement were 

initiated and these discussions were completed during the 

visit of a delegation from Jinan to our University in early 

October. 

Given that the Agreement has academic implications and 

modest financial ones, I am forwarding this to Senate and 

the Board of Governors for approval, in accordance with 

item 8. of the Agreement.
