Dan Washburn's Shanghai Diaries

campus culture

What’s currently blaring through the outdoor PA system here at Shanghai University’s Yan Chang Lu Campus? You guessed it: “Up Where We Belong” by Joe Cocker and Jennifer Warnes. Further proof that it’s currently 1982 here in Shanghai.

In other campus culture news …

One of my students has taken to calling me “bro.”

Another likes to greet me with “How you doin’?,” which he picked up from watching Joey Tribbianni on Friends.

Should I be worried?
