Taking the Leap: My Semester in Beijing
To be honest, I’d never planned to study in Beijing, or even to pursue studying Chinese. What I have had, however, is a lifelong appreciation for languages and cultures.
“The way of looking at the world can be so different, and there isn’t one right way. There is a beauty in the other, and there is a beauty in the Chinese way of approaching life.” – Jim Caime
TBC’s Executive Director, Fr. Jim Caime, was featured on a Limitless Laowai podcast in which he discusses the 400+ years of Jesuit history in China and what lessons travelers to China should take to heart to find comfort and succeed in China.
Listen to Jim’s podcast to hear more about TBC and how TBC engages students with China.

This past summer at The Beijing Center (TBC), students from Marquette University took TBC’s Chinese language courses for college credit. TBC’s program offers an intensive, immersive curriculum in the heart of Beijing.
