Forging stronger Sino-US links

Arizona State University increasingly aspires to expand partnerships in China, the school's president Michael Crow says.

As a renowned US public-research university that has been ranked No 1 among innovative schools by the US News & World Report, "our goal is to be inclusive to the broadest cross section of people from every family background - as good as any faculty that exists anywhere", says Crow.

"Our approach is to make certain that the university is able to touch everyone with their learning needs."
