Before class began this Monday we went to see a few students we had met that weekend practicing 刀 (Dao1, literally: Knife, known commonly as broadsword) for their Wushu (武术) final exam.
Believe it or not (its not that hard to believe really), Wushu is offered as a course and a major at Soochow (and other universities in China, I'm sure), so if you wish to learn about the culture more or even, as in my case, go to sharpen up your Wushu/Gongfu skills while in the land where it all began, definitely inquire at your host university.
