The February meeting of the Roundtable is at noon, Thursday, the 21st, at the Capital City Club downtown.
February’s meeting is especially timely given the recent focus on US-China relations. Our speaker is Dr. Mary Brown Bullock, China scholar and former president of Agnes Scott College. Her topic will be “China at Seventy: Implications for the United States.”
Dr. Bullock has served as a distinguished visiting professor of Chinese studies at Emory University and as the executive vice chancellor of Duke Kunshan University in Kunshan, China. Dr. Bullock’s most recent publications are The Oil Prince’s Legacy: Rockefeller Philanthropy in China (2011) and as co-editor, Medical Transitions in Twentieth-Century China (2014). She is a member of the Schwarzman Academic Advisory Committee and is a member of the Council on Foreign Relations.
A 1966 Phi Beta Kappa graduate of Agnes Scott, Dr. Bullock earned her master’s and doctoral degrees in Chinese history from Stanford University. Bullock and her husband George live in Atlanta.
