My queue continues to say "a new china" though I am trying to learn explicitly from "Integrated Chinese I". What causes this?

As far as I am aware, within my learning queue, there is no "a new china" in my list.

Thank you so much.

Your queue? Do you mean your queue at:

http://www.skritter.com/vocabulary/lists#Q

Or do you mean on the practice page in the upper left hand corner? If it's saying "A New China" then it appears to be showing you the wrong list name for some reason.

It looks like all the words you added are from Integrated Chinese I, so whatever it's telling you the list is from, you should be learning the words you want to learn.

Oh! Or are you talking about the left side of the lists page? The Queue is separate from your lists; it's just a place to put individual words you want to work on when you don't want to study one of our given lists. Below that are the lists you have enabled and then after that under "Vocabulary Lists" are all available lists, so that long list of lists isn't signifying what you are currently studying.

But if you need to get rid of previously added characters from a list, go to that list, select the words or characters, then click Delete and they will be removed from study.

Hope one of those paragraphs help!
