Nineteen faculty and students from Elon University in the United States joined peers from Sichuan University, Sichuan International Studies University, and Chongqing Nankai Secondary School for an exchange event at the Stilwell Museum on Friday.

Co-hosted by the Chongqing People's Association for Friendship with Foreign Countries and the Stilwell Research Center, the event featured a tour of Joseph Stilwell's former residence and a WWII exhibition, culminating in a friendly game of ping-pong between the Chinese and American youths.
