About Taiwan's Issue -- A letter to our Headmaster
Dear Dr.Headmaster,
How's everything going?
After thinking quite a long time, I decided to write this letter to you. My purpose here is to seriously complain about my L/S teacher Baldman Lee, and seek for help. So could you please spend some time to read my letter meticulously even though it is a litter longer? We will be really appreciative if you could help us.
My name is Hang Chen, an international student from China, currently studying in the University of Delaware and its English Language Institution. I'm now a student of Baldman Lee's, attending his Listening/Speaking English for Academic Purpose (EAP) Level V/D class.
The main reason that I denounce this teacher is that recently I have found out he has some prejudice against Chinese people. In his class, he used inappropriate language to assault Chinese students more than once, such as"You Chinese guys are crazy, you eat anything with legs except table." and "You guys always like to cheat while writing a research paper. Just copy the content from the Internet." The one thing that really made me determine to complain about this teacher happened like this: Last last Friday, when I was in Baldman Lee's class, he asked all the students to show evidence convincing him that we were in the International Festival on Thursday night in Trabant University Center, because he gave this task to all the students in this class on Thursday and he promised that if everyone went there, there would be an extra credits adding to every student, so he just wanted to make sure by that time. I took many pictures by using my iPhone in that party as my evidence. While I was showing the photos to him, he found that in my phone there was a flag of "Republic of China" raised by the students from Taiwan and then he immediately lifted my phone very high and show this picture to all the students in class and cynically asked me(like shouting with smiling)"What country is that?". I said"No, that is not a country, Don't talk that. It's a political issue." We mainland Chinese students,however, all understand this issue and never discuss this with the students from China Taiwan here in the USA in case we have different opinions and avoid hurting each other's feeling, also do the Taiwanese students. Some other mainland Chinese students also supported me by voice followed my voice. Then he said" It's a country ! We don't have table for province here. Stephanie, what country is that?" he asked Stephanie on purpose. Stephanie is one of my best friends, and she was born in Taiwan but now she obtained a mainland Chinese passport due to her family's reason. Stephanie was a little scared by that time, and she just answered "Taiwan" in a very low voice subconsciously. Then Baldman Lee even reach one for a yard after taking an inch, he just sat there watching us quarreling with each other while smiling. Obviously, he was sowing dissension, damaging the good relationship between mainland Chinese and Taiwanese students and he thought that was an amusement to him, which was obviously not proper to take place in a class.

Under this circumstance,
1.I felt that was an invasion of our national sovereignty and territorial integrity.
2.He raised the most sensitive political issue between mainland Chinese and Taiwanese purposely (which means he knew that this is a very sensitive issue but still do it to fulfill his abnormal psychology) in class which is absolutely an inappropriate public place. That is totally not like a teacher's behavior, especially in an international class containing students from different countries and districts. We come here to study because we know that there has good reputation in the worldwide educational field and been rich for knowledge, and we pay money for making good preparation to attend our atteched American university, not for his assaults. We wouldn't come if we knew there would be a waste of time and money and oppositely, get bad feelings with rediculous paying. He should feel shamed if he regard himself as a responsible international teacher.( We feel it ok if a teacher just wants to analyse some of the differences between mainland China and Taiwan so they separate them sometimes, and it is also possible that some American teachers may not know that it is a sensitive issue and may even don't know the history of China and whether Taiwan is a part of China, but he knew this problem and did it purposely, which is evidently an offensive.)

3.Kind of insult and lack of respect. He just sat here watching I and my good friend Stephanie quarreling with each other with grin. He just wanted to amuse at our Chinese people, which was totally unacceptable. After class Stephanie said that was only the subconsciousness, some Taiwanese may say that and it has already affeted her mind, but we all know that we don't have "Taiwan country" in this world. We eased the nervousness between us.
4.We Chinese people cannot see it as a joke, we do mind and care about this problem. We see it very seriously, what he did definitely cannot be accepted. When you feel that your nation or ethnic is offended, that can be really a serious problem.

6.Out of the patriotism of my motherland and the nationalism of all the Chinese people, I can't give any concession this time. We, all the Chinese students(including Stephanie who has already maintained a mainland Chinese passport) in his class can't stand it any more. It's hard for us to bare it one more time. It's not more than one time that he mentioned this issue, and this time he obviously stirred up this issue to the top. Not only just for Taiwan's issue, but also for all the insults he made to Chinese people. Baldman Lee might think I am still a sick man of Asia, and I dare not to expose his behavior towards Chinese students to the public, totally wrong. Even though some of the other Chinese students are not that brave to dare to speak out this problem to the public, I‘m not that easy to bully. I am a Chinese who is just fighting for justice and equality and protecting our nation's sovereignty. We don't bully others, and we cannot be bullied either. When your sense of national pride is invaded by someone, it is the time to bravely stand out to preserve your own country's right which is more important above all the things.
By the way, Baldman Lee is also not responsible enough to his duties and responsibilities towards the students' grades. He usually either gives the grade very late or doesn't give the grade even though we complete the homework or in-class assignments on time, which sounds unbelievable, but it dose happen every second, even after we ask for the grade. Moreover, this teacher is so narcissistic, it see***ike you must give him the praise every time when you meet him or give him some good stuff to please him otherwise you cannot expect a good grade or graduation from his class.
Some people here may think I am over impulsive, but I don't think so. I'm doing the right thing. I can't let this happen one more time. Many Chinese friends of mine support my spirit. When I think I have no place to complain this problem to anyone, they told me to write a letter to Dr.Headmaster. We don't have viciousness against anyone, but we must stand out to protect ourselves when someone attacks us. Although here is the United States, not China, I still keep that hope that there must be a place for us foreigners to protect our rights.
I promise, everything I say is from my heart. Everything I say is according to the truth. I will be responsible for my words. So, distinguished Dr.Headmaster and all the UD and ELI officers, please take the problem seriously, investigate Baldman's behaviour and finally deal with this. We hope a reminding would be made to every staff and faculty to refrain from bringing such kinda issue up in class duscussions, ouf of the respect of not only the Chinese students, but also all the students here.
Thank you Dr.Handmaster,
Have a good night!
