Abstract

Dozens of U of R international students were introduced to the fun and frustrating game of golf on May 9. The students spent an afternoon at the Lakeview Par3 course in Regina. “I didn’t have a chance to try golf at home,” says Wei bin Wang, an Environmental Engineering student who is originally from China. “It can cost over $2 thousand for one time of golfing. And if you want to purchase a membership it can cost over $10 thousand a year.” Compare that to the $15 the students paid for the round of golf at the Par 3 course and you can see the attraction. Wang was with a team that included fellow students Fahimeh Bayeh and Marzieh Bayeh, sisters from Iran.
