We continue to mourn the tragic loss of Chuanchuan Zhang, a graduate student at Brandeis International Business School, while off campus in Boston, over the weekend of 11/18. We express our deepest condolences to his family and friends. Many of Chuanchuan Zhang’s friends, fellow students, professors and advisers gathered in a large community meeting at Brandeis to honor his memory on Tuesday, November 21.
