ELIZABETH FOLEY, Cultural Studies major, writes: Being a vegetarian in Shanghai is not as hard as I first thought it might be. On the night we arrived the group ate at a vegetarian restaurant. The food was great; I know I will be craving it once I return to Chicago. The language barrier is hard sometimes. Yesterday morning before breakfast Kristin and I were walking around near the hotel taking photos when a police officer began to yell at us. Of course we had no idea what we were being yelled at for. Kristin tried to speak Chinese, saying, �We speak English,� at which point an older woman who happened to be walking by began to laugh at our situation. Finally I let the officer look though my camera to see the photos I had taken. After reviewing the pictures, the officer pointed down the street and motioned for us to leave.
