Rich Lee, secretary general of the Chinese Taipei Skating Union, points to the academic success of many Chinese athletes. Chen Ting, with an IQ of 148, has received an education award from US President Bill Clinton. Li Po-ling, who has represented Chinese Taipei in the winter Olympics, is now a doctoral candidate at Stanford University.
滑冰協會理事長李廣淮更拿出許多華裔選手的學歷為證，就以陳婷為例，她的智商一百四十八，曾拿過美國柯林頓總統獎特優學生；曾代表我國參加冬季奧運的李博玲目前是美國史丹佛大學的博士候選人。
