In this episode of GlobalCast, we invited Tan Gao to join us. Mr. Gao is an alumni of Tabor Class of ’98. He was the first mainland Chinese student to attend Tabor in the modern era. He currently works at Google and lives in Austin, Texas with his family. Mr. Gao shares his story of Tabor life in the late 1990's— the cultural shock he experienced, the language barrier, the sports activities he participated in, and the dorm he lived in. Maggie Xu, Grace Hu, Alecia Liu, and Jack Xie, also share their international experience at Tabor today and found many connections with Mr. Gao's story. Enjoy listening to a look back into the International Tabor experience through the eyes of Mr. Gao.    This Episode of GlobalCast was produced by, Maggie Xu, Grace Hu, Alecia Liu, and Jack Xie Music by Dmitriy Taras

Welcome to the third episode of GlobalCast. As module B kickstarted, some international students have returned to campus while many remained as remote learners under the pressure of travel ban and other protocols that makes returning particularly difficult. Because of the time difference, international students have to attend zoom classes at nighttime. They need to pay extra effort to stay focused and be actively engaged at the expense of sleep. The biggest missing part for them, however, is the connection with school and community. “In the conversation in class, I was always a listener and couldn't participate,” stated by Athena Zhong. The missing connection is not a surprising discovery amongst domestic students. “You can’t go into anyone’s dorm other than the dorm you are assigned to, and that takes away many fun experiences with friends” told by Nicolas Hatchens. In this episode, we will explore a typical school day for students in different hemispheres and discover how to foster a better Tabor experience under the pandemic.

This song has a jazzy-lofi style made with piano and drums. Through plugins, the audio is modified to sound more scratchy and old with the addition of vinyl noises. As the genre goes, it is meant to be relaxing but also give a similar feeling as hip-hop beats.   Produced by Jon Ho
