I have to agree with you. IMO, this discussion should never be

about what individuals, particularly those already trained and

licensed, choose as their path of learning and practice, and I believe

you completely when you say that your time is better spent in other

ways.

 

My contention is that this discussion should only be about what

we require in the training programs for new students, for the future.

I believe that our master's programs should have a non-elective

translation component of about 12 semester units, spread over three

years. This would be a comfortable pace and could integrate well with

current other material being taught. It would provide a cohort of

graduates ready for a doctoral level programs, and I believe would

enhance the level of non-Chinese practitioners in the future.

I agree completely and have stated this on many occasions.
