Q: Why do Chinese like to visit universities in other cities?

Whenever I go with a Chinese person to another city, they insist on visiting some university or other. I went to Hangzhou this weekend, and all we did was walk around a few universities and West Lake. Once I was in Wenzhou with a friend, and she suggested visiting a university, despite it being far away with nothing else around it! The campuses can be quite nice, but I don't get it. Back home, the only time I would visit a school I didn't go to is if a friend of mine goes there. Is it a pride thing, like "my city has so many universities, which makes it awesome"? Are they places with the best scenery in most cities? Are they considered great tourist spots? What's the deal?

I would imagine that since university is still a rare experience for the vast majority of people here, there lies the attraction?

Q: Can a Z visa holder do graduate studies in China while working?

A: Good question! I'd say, if you study at Uni in China beside

A:Good question! I'd say, if you study at Uni in China beside working full-time as an E.T. with Residence permit, you don't interfere with your full-time employment.It's your free time and you can do anything you want, with respect to the Chinese laws and customs. Have a look at terms of Z visa/Residence permit and ... ".. you cannot work (and earn monies!) with another employer ..."That's all it is! Your RP sponsor title is written on the RP stamp in your passport, I think. It's in Mandarin, so I've heard about that from someone ...At I.D.-ing by cops, they know where you work and than more details about you are just a phone call away ... and it happened in person ... LOL ... during the day-time stroll through Wulumuqi, Xinjiang, 2012/13 semester. Now under RP, you're free to surf Internet, jog, ... and study, too. I suggest, you look and ask at the Uni, you plan to study in the future. Have a detailed look at requirements for studying and attending chosen Uni.Good luck! -- icnif77
