Lin Crowley (梁霖）

MA -Mass Communications, MPA -Public Administration

I was born and raised in Taiwan and came to the States to earn my graduate degrees in Mass Communications and later in Public Administration. Currently I teach Chinese and from time to time study abroad and Immigration studies at the Evergreen State College. I have worked as a media and public relations professional for more than 30 years besides my teaching.

Outside of teaching I am also active in community media as well as nonprofit organization engagement. I served on the board for the Olympia Chinese organization, Olympia Refugees and Immigrant Service Center, the Washington Federation of State Employees, and the Thurston Community Television, (renamed as Thurston Community Media). Currently I serve as the Co-Chair for the Asian Pacific Islanders Coalition South Puget Sound Chapter and manage our census outreach and other civic and community engagement activities.

To learn more about my current Chinese teaching and academic offerings please see my program web site at http://blogs.evergreen.edu/chinese/. You can find more about our Asian Pacific Islanders Coalition @ http://www.apicwa.org.

I enjoy traveling, cultural explorations, photography & painting, gardening, spending time with the family and having meaningful conversation. I value genuine appreciation of nature and human dignity and peaceful and progressive approach for social change.

Some of my special focuses:

＊Higher Education policy and development,
＊Community organizing, advocacy and development,
＊Media and information technology,
＊Event planning and project management,
＊Negotiation and Labor Relations,
＊Innovative self-starter with ability to multitasking.
