Meet the Student: John Carrington

John Carrington is a senior from Menlo Park, California studying in finance in the Mendoza College of Business. He took Professor Jensen’s Approaching Asia course in order to learn more about the complex political and cultural landscape of Asia. The course being a seminar allowed for thoughtful conversation on many key issues throughout the semester. John’s paper is about China’s action in the South China Sea and how the steps China has taken in attempt to gain sovereignty over these waters. He wrote about this topic to raise awareness for this crisis because it is a current and increasingly pressing issue that does not receive adequate news coverage.
