<mods:abstract>This is a letter from Dr. Frank Fu, Director of the International Center at Springfield College, to Ma Qiwei, at the time a professor of the Peking Institute of Physical Culture (now Beijing Sport University), dated April 9, 1979. The letter is in response to Dr. Ma's letter of March 26th. In this letter Dr. Fu talks about his specialty in Administration in Health, Physical Education and Recreation and his focus on exercise physiology, talks about the sports he plays, and provides addresses for the friends MA is looking for: Roger G. Burton and Edward Crocker.</mods:abstract>
<mods:note>Ma Qiwei (马启伟), the son of Ma Yuehan (John Ma), was awarded his Master's in Education and Physical Education from Springfield College in 1948. At the time of his attendance, beginning in 1946, he was known as Edward Mo. It is mainly through his outreach that Springfield College and Beijing Sport University, then known as the Peking Institute of Physical Culture, signed their first collaboration agreement in 1981. A vice-president there at the time, in 1982 he was named the President. During his career he served as the Vice-Chairman of the China Society of Sports Science, Director of the Society of Sports Psychology, Chairman of the Rule of the Game and Arbitration Committee of the China Volleyball Association, and was active on International committees, including as a member of the American College of Sports Medicine as well as the rule of the Game Committee of the International Volleyball Federation and Asian Volleyball Confederation. On May 13, 1984, Ma Qiwei was given an honorary Doctor of Humanics by Springfield College. Beijing Sport University was organized and established as the Central Institute of Physical Education (sport) in 1953 with the help of Professor Xu Yingchao, Springfield College graduate of the class 1938. The name of the university changed to Peking (Beijing) Institute of Physical Culture (physical education) in 1956 and renamed Beijing Sports University in 1993. The first agreement signed by Springfield College and the Beijing Sport University was on September 25, 1981, which provided pathways for collaboration and exchange of faculty and students.</mods:note>
