活动简介：
Bay Echo Association 邀请大学毕业校友，分享如何帮助您的孩子在大学毕业後，拥有成功的生活与职涯。活动讲者毕业於美国知名大学，来自於不同的职业背景与兴趣。
本次活动探讨的议题来自於最近热门的讨论，据统计13% 的18 到28岁的年轻人「上市失败」，意指无法过着成人的自立生活；也有研究指出有些美国菁英大学毕业生因为缺乏经验，使得他们独立思考以及行为的能力受限。
不管您是否在美国就读本科或研究所，本活希望帮助新移民的家长辅导孩子在美国成功得就学及发展。活动的讲者包括第一代移民及第二代移民，现场将会提供中文翻译。

Dear Parents,
You are invited to a special, free parent education event co-organized by the Bay Echo Association and the Berkeley Chinese Business Association.
Please find the relevant information here:
EVENT TITLE: Your Successful Launch from a US College: Tips for Life and Career Coaching
WHEN: Saturday, February 7, 2015 from 11:00 am – 12:00 pm with 30 minutes of networking to follow
WHERE: RSVP here and we will send you a confirmation email for the location
PROGRAM:
Join Bay Echo Association and the Berkeley Chinese Business Association in a dialogue about how young adults can prepare for a successful launch from college to life and a career. The presenters are accomplished alumni with advanced degrees from top universities, and with diversified professional background and personal interests.
The ideas shared from the panelists will reference recent trends in the news about the 13% of 18-28 year olds in the US who have “failed to launch” as well as newly published work that believes that students attending elite universities sometimes fall prey to experiences stunt their growth as independent thinkers and doers.
Furthermore, if you are a recent immigrant to US – either you had attended the college or graduate school in the US or not – you will find this event meaningful and inspiring on how to nurture your child as the second generation immigrant to survive and thrive better in the US. Among the panelists, some were born and raised outside US and some were also second generation immigrants. Chinese interpretation will be available onsite.
