Summary
This document, seemingly part of a House Oversight Committee report (Section 4), details the influence of the Chinese government on US university campuses through Chinese Students and Scholars Associations (CSSA). It outlines how CSSAs reportedly coordinate with Chinese diplomatic missions to gather intelligence, pressure students, and disrupt events involving sensitive topics like Tibet or Taiwan. The text highlights a specific 2017 incident at UC San Diego where the CSSA and the PRC consulate in Los Angeles coordinated opposition to the Dalai Lama's commencement speech.
