I would want to express my deep gratitude for providing me the financial support to finish my PhD studies without needing to find outside employment. The ability to focus on my reading and writing allowed me to produce a quality of work that would have otherwise been impossible. And it is on the basis of that work that I was fortunate enough to start my careers: first as a postdoctoral fellowship at Yale's Council on East Asian Studies (CEAS), then with my first job at the Queen Mary University of London, and now my current job at Georgetown.
Kyle Shernuk, Alum '19
Assistant Professor of Modern Chinese Literature & Culture, Georgetown University
感謝兩位提供獎學金資助我在美國的研究生生涯，使我得以在求學路上少卻後顧之憂，專注於學術探索與自我成長。那段歲月不僅拓展了我的知識視野，也深刻塑造了我看待世界與自身責任的方式。感恩!

I would like to express my deepest gratitude to Mr. Yu Chi Chung and Mrs. Alice T. Yu for their vision and generosity in supporting young scholars. The year I received the funding coincided with the COVID-19 pandemic, a particularly difficult time for my family. Their support not only eased the financial pressure we faced, but also allowed me to focus on completing my dissertation with greater peace of mind. Their commitment to nurturing scholarship has made a lasting impact on my academic journey.
