June 28th - In the season of the blooming phoenix flower comes the graduation season of GDUFS. On June 25th, the graduation ceremony for the School of International Trade & Economics was held on our South Campus Council House. GDUFS President Zhong Weihe, along with GDUFS Vice Presidents Fang Wanquan and Wang Youqi, along with the graduating students from the School of International Trade & Economics attended the ceremony which was hosted by Xu Guobin, Deputy Secretary of the Party Committee.
The Council House
Unlike previous ceremonies, graduating students had to use their student cards to enter the Council House. "The student cards are the identity of the students, which enhances the safety of the ceremony," explained Zhi Xiucong, Dean of Student Affairs. This might be the last time the students get to use their cards.
Mr. Zhong Weihe giving the speech
As his last present to the GDUFS graduates, President Zhong Weihe gave a speech entitled "Four years experience at GDUFS, a Lifetime Attachment." He said, "Chinese have a saying that the mother will pray for her children who are away from her. You are all children of GDUFS. We are concerned about whether you are mature enough to enter society; we are concerned about whether you are ready for a tough boss; we are concerned about whether you are always chasing your dreams." These were a few of the "Eight Consecutive Concerns" that warmly expressed President Zhong Weihe's care and expectation of the graduates.
Solemn, yet passionate and humorous, President Zhong Weihe's speech evoked several rounds of cheers from the graduates. He ended his speech with the remark, "Through the years, whether you come back or not, your alma mater will always be here in full support of you. Whether you visit your professors or not, we will always miss you, and we have full confidence in you."
Following the speech, Kang Fengli, Teacher Representative, gave suggestions on how to live and how to learn. She hopes students will be honest and grateful at all times. Xue Aimei, Parents' Representative, said "The professors at GDUFS have guided you to society. Now the whole world belongs to you, and also the future." Finally, the Student Representative Bai Jinjing expressed her appreciation to the alma mater by saying, "In the past four years, we've grown out of the immaturity, and we've learned to pursue our dreams."
Student Representative sharing her thoughts
After the speeches given by the representatives, Vice President Fang Wanquan awarded 16 graduates with the title of "Excellent College Student" and the other 499 received the title of "Merit Student". Many of the graduates' relatives came to witness the graduation ceremony. Yuang, who majored in Finance, came with her mother and grandmother. Yuang' s mother said she was very grateful that her daughter has learned to be independent and has gained confidence, which are the most important things in her life.
