Attending the 2004 USC Asia Conference can help further my teaching, my professional role in my school district, as well as enhance my long-term professional growth objectives. As an AP economics teacher with the Los Angeles Unified District, the USC Asia Conference will provide me with the opportunity to improve my teaching on an immediate and measurable level. Gaining a broader understanding of teaching within Pacific Rim societies will help me pass on this level of cultural knowledge, and my desire to learn about other cultures to my students. This is especially useful for students in my Advanced Placement classes, as a better understanding of the interaction of economics and culture in the Pacific Rim is crucial in this time of globalization and outsourcing.
A strong understanding of cultural diversity and the broader world in which we live is essential for today's professional educator. The USC Asia Conference offers a number of excellent opportunities to better understand the relationship between American culture and the rest of the world, including a panel discussing the "causes and consequences of America's changing image in Asia" (Sample). Opportunities like this will help to enhance my professional role in my district, by allowing me to better understand the international and cultural context of education.
Similarly, participation in the 2004 USC Asia Conference will greatly enhance my long-term professional growth objectives. This conference offers a unique and valuable opportunity to meet with "key administrators, leading faculty, and international guest speakers" (Sample). This interaction can provide me with the opportunity to further my understanding of how economics and culture in the Pacific Rim play a part in the larger worldwide economy.
In conclusion, in today's climate of globalization, American culture and economics are increasingly influenced by Pacific Rim societies. As such, participation in the 2004 USC Asia Conference will bring significant benefits to my classroom, to the larger school district, and to my professional career.

This lack of trust within the supply chain has a rippling effect across the flow of goods and services, and should therefore be addressed with a high degree of priority.

I intend to pursue a career in medicine, a career that I regard as a calling as well as an aspiration. My sports activities have disciplined me, toughened me, and honed my competitive instincts in a way that I believe is necessary for pre-medical studies, and later, perhaps, for medical school.
