Stephen S. Chou, a graduate student in the department of East Asian Languages and Civilizations and a friend of Wang's, said many at the memorial were surprised to hear some of Wang's own poetic compositions. Friends found the work on her personal computer as they organized her belongings...
Friends in the Harvard Republic of China Student Club (HROCSC), where Wang served as a vice president, said they were impressed by Wang's efforts to recruit friends for club events.
Last June the club invited Chung-Mo Cheng, the head of Taiwan's department of justice, to speak at Harvard. But it was after exams, and many students had already left campus.
"We were worried that there were not enough students to attend it," Chou said. "But at that day we were surprised that many students from other universities attended, and many of them were friends of [Wang]."
Chen-Hsiang Yeang, a third-year graduate student in electrical engineering and computer science at MIT, said Wang's interest in arts and literature inspired the two of them to form an informal movie-discussion club.
