You can find information on the study of Sino-US Relations, such as financial aid opportunities, Center for Fellowships & Grants, Item 075; The Early American Trade with China, 056; and Websites for China Studies, 051. I will continue to focus on exploring Chinese culture and the early development of the Untied States, particularly the efforts of the eminent colonists, including the founding fathers, worked hard to draw nourishments from traditional Chinese Civilization.

219. Chinese Influence on Modern American Culture
I have found an online essay discussing Chinese cultural influence on modern American culture. The author identified Chinese influence in some areas, such as cuisine, remedies, spirituality, aesthetics and language. According to the author, Chinese immigrants have brought “unique food tradition” to the United States since 1820.
Traditional Chinese medicine is getting more popular in the United States. As a result, nowadays, many insurance plans cover acupuncture. More modern American designers and architects have embraced feng shui--a popular system of Chinese aesthetics on improving your living and working environment. More is available from this link.
