A letter to University professor Dear prof., How time flies. I am leaving US backing to China soon. I am writing here to say good bye to you. One shame thing for my one year stay in the US could be that I did not follow you for study. I had a thought of coming to Seattle to meet you but finally did not get a chance. I do believe that my research interests and expertise well fit some of yours and so harbor a wish that I can have a chance learning from you in future. In this year, I keep on concerning your researches and academic activities although being unable to come to UOW. And I learned that you keep contacts with some Chinese Institutes. So I hope you can come to our institute for a visit and giving speech. Could you pls let me know if you come to China next time? And I will formally invite you. Our institute is a state research institute affiliated by Chinese Geological Survey. We are currently making efforts to extend our regular geological survey work to geoscientific studies through international corporation. Your coming for a visit could also be a good cooperative beginning between us. Best,
