孫教授，妳的歌劇票勾起我的紐約回憶1992。我的東海同學知道我沒看過opera (當然，1974年德國文化中心在台中的中興堂招待東海同學馬拉松式華格納，我們許多同學都睡了.....)，拉我去。因為他怕我發太多錢，位置如在山上看山下的歌唱.....
我這封主要要請教貴校的The Wilbur Lucius Cross Medal，應該等同外校的"杰出校友獎"？如果是，它沒給企業界的老闆/捐大錢者 (沒這類的)，近年來不是有"壓力"嗎？(我之所以問The Wilbur Lucius Cross Medal，因為我們這行有位偉人Dr. W. Edwards Deming，是耶魯校友，榮譽博士、此獎章得主。) 希望沒打擾您太多？

The Wilbur Lucius Cross Medal is an honor presented each year by the Graduate School Alumni Association to a small number of outstanding alumni. The medal recognizes distinguished achievements in scholarship, teaching, academic administration, and public service–all areas in which the legendary Dean Cross excelled.
Wilbur Lucius Cross himself was a scholar of distinction in English literature. He taught at the Sheffield Scientific School, the precursor to Yale's Graduate School of Arts and Sciences, and served as Dean during the Graduate School's reorganization into its present form. He rejuvenated the Yale Review as its editor.
Yale Chief Executive Leadership Institute Honors Jiang Jianqing of ICBC and Gao Xiqing, Formerly of the China Investment Corporation, with Leadership Awards
New Haven, Conn., October 26, 2014—Dr. Jiang Jianqing, chairman of ICBC, the world's largest bank in assets and market capitalization, and Mr. Gao Xiqing, the former president and chief investment officer of China Investment Corporation, China's sovereign wealth fund, will be honored for their leadership with awards by the Chief Executive Leadership Institute of the Yale School of Management at a ceremony to be held at the Yale CEO Summit in Beijing, China, on October 27.
Dr. Jiang will receive the Legend in Leadership Award in recognition of his legacy of global financial leadership. It will be presented by Fu Chengyu, chairman of Sinopec and last year's recipient of this award, and Peter Salovey, president of Yale University.
Jiang Jianqing represents the finest in global business leadership and perceptive financial wisdom, and has been a prominent voice for responsible governance. He is also an inspiring reminder of what contributions a great scholar can make to the world in callings beyond academic life. He has built a formidable global enterprise while skillfully balancing domestic responsibility with public shareholder accountability. A scholar and researcher on theoretical and practical implications of financial innovation, he is also a leader in market reform, becoming chairman of ICBC in 2005 as it prepared for its public listing and dramatic global expansion.
Mr. Gao will receive the Lifetime of Leadership Award, to be presented by Edward A. Snyder, dean of the Yale School of Management; Chen Zhiwu, professor at Yale School of Management; and Stephen S. Roach, senior fellow of the Yale Jackson Institute for Global Affairs and former chair of Morgan Stanley Asia.
Mr. Gao also has distinguished twin careers as a scholar and as a business leader. Now a professor at Tsinghua University and Duke University, he began his career as a manual railroad worker and became a core architect of Chinese security law and a renowned scholar and teacher, as well as an influential business leader. A graduate of Peking University and Duke University's Law School, he was an associate at a major New York corporate law firm before returning to help establish the Shanghai and Shenzhen stock exchanges in 1990. He became a founding member of the Chinese Securities Regulatory Commission, where he was known as a bold reformer and advocate for more liberal capital markets. He retired this past January after leading the China Investment Corporation since 2007.
CEO Summit organizer Jeffrey Sonnenfeld, senior associate dean for executive programs at the Yale School of Management, commented: "Both Chairman Jiang of ICBC and Mr. Gao of CIC are revered in both China and the West for their rare blend of trailblazing entrepreneurial triumphs, pioneering global expansion, innovative processes, problem-solving business statesmanship, inspiring social responsibility, and authentic governance integrity. At this time of sensitive U.S.-China relations and leadership transitions, it is vital to learn from these models of quiet diplomacy, original foresight, and personal humility."
