2009年12月号《Skating》杂志上关于Charlie在大学那间著名宿舍的特写文章,主角当然就是此宿舍的四位可爱的住客啦 :
四位室友都是大学校友&美国花样滑冰运动员,分别是:Charlie White(D/W男伴),Evan Bates(S/B男伴),Alex Shibutani(少年组冰舞S/S兄妹组男伴),Trevor Young(双人滑选手B/Y组男伴,去年有来哈尔滨参加大冬会^^);有可能是对手,但更是肝胆相照的好朋友~
很温馨的文章:《Learning Experience》

截选段落:
Meryl Davis and Charlie White's unique, Indian-themed original dance is a hit all over the globe, with people from Michigan to Mumbai - many of whom don't know the first thing about ice dancing - raving about the program and forwarding videos of it to family and friends. One video alone on YouTube has racked up over 210,000 views, astronomical numbers for a figure skating program.
"It's very cool," Davis said. "Charlie and I have always been excited about being different and embracing what we could bring to the sport. It's really exciting to expand the fan base, and expand the fan base to parts of the world that haven't really experienced it before."

Videos of programs are posted all the time, but they're usually only of interest to skating fans. Somehow, though, Davis and White's OD began circulating among people in India or with ties to South Asia.
Check the statistics on the OD videos that have been posted on YouTube, and most of the views are by people in India. The program is mentioned on several Web sites celebrating Indian culture. Some of Rajendra's own friends even got e-mails from people in India, telling them they had to check out these American ice dancers.
Like most winter sports, skating isn't very big in India. But people there were impressed - and proud - that American skaters were showcasing their culture.
"This is the new world......of globalization! I am so proud of my heritage! way to go!!," one person who watched the video on YouTube wrote.
"It makes me feel good that something Indian is being shown," said Dr. Shekar Pushpala, a doctor in Indianapolis who was sent the video by a friend in India.

After winning the title at the Grand Prix final, they're firmly in the mix for a medal in Vancouver. And while they'll represent the United States, they can count on support from another country (India), too.
"There's a certain level of respect due when you attempt something like this," Davis said. "We wanted to make sure we did the program justice."
