As a part of their work in the History of East Asia Since 1800, Dr. Crawford took the class to eat at the New China Restaurant in Ada. During the lunch today, students discussed E.B. Sledge's book With the Old Breed on Peleliu and Okinawa, one of their readings, while they ate. They also learned, if they didn't know before, that fortune cookies are an American invention and not part of Chinese culture.
The food was great and the conversation better!
