On July 21, 2011, Exeter University’s third annual three-week CUPL summer school program came to

a successful conclusion. During their CUPL residency, 27 British teachers and students studied law, Chinese culture,

and other subjects. They visited local governments and courts, law firms devoted to public interest issues,

Beijing area communities, and religious sites. They also took part in the Science and Education Festival activities

organized by the Beijing Municipal government. The activities helped give the participants

a better understanding of China. CUPL organized CUPL faculty lectures for the British students,

and also paired-up Chinese and British student partners to promote cultural understanding and friendship.
