Among those hoping to find the right people is first-year Beijing transplant Ryan Zhang, who said that America isn't better or worse than China, just different.

He added that joining a group like CABO is "good for your future and your life."

Nico Pisarello, another first-year, agreed with Zhang.

"I'm personally interested in the international field, learning language and culture," Pisarello said. "Especially one like China, which is booming and soon to be a world leader."

At the end of the dinner and Grossberg's speech, Roger Jenkins, dean of the Farmer School of Business gave the group his blessing as each inaugural member received a certificate of membership.

"In the business school, we have 27 student organizations, and I expect this one to be the best or at least in the top two or three," Jenkins said. "Everything this organization does will be done with quality."

In a written pamphlet, CABO states that qualified candidates for membership include business school's China Business Program students and students studying at Miami from China, with other students being admitted on a case-by-case basis. Currently there are no dues for membership, but Miller said future dues are a possibility.

The group is sponsored by the Farmer School of Business and advised by David Yen, director of the China Business Program.
