CWU Holds Work Conference on Student Affairs

The Student Affairs Office (SAO) and Youth League Committee of the China Women's University (CWU) held a working conference on student affairs on September 1. 

Li Mingshun, Chairperson of the CWU Council, gave a keynote speech at the conference, which was presided over by Han Yan, director of the SAO.

Directors from different schools and functional departments introduced the basic situation of freshmen and students return to school for the fall semester, respectively. The organizers listened to the reports carefully, solicited opinions extensively, and deployed the plan for specific work in the new term.

While affirming the efforts and achievements made by all departments, Li also put forward several requirements and hopes towards student affairs. 

Firstly, building a student-oriented education system is important, Li said. Catering for the objectives of talent cultivation, educators should uphold the student-oriented concept, attach great importance to students' development, establish sincere and friendly relationship with students, and deal with students' inner issues equitably.
 
Secondly, the university's priority is to ensure students' personal and property safety, and construct a stable, harmonious, and disciplined campus. 

In addition, the teachers should guide students to set up positive values on life and society, stimulate students' interest in study, and cultivate their creative thinking. Whilst, teachers should improve their own teaching qualities, and learn from other experienced teachers.

Moreover, the teaching staff should implant the assessment requirements of undergraduate education into the daily curriculum. Li hoped that the relevant teachers could go further, highlight the features of CWU, and work together to build CWU into a top women's university. 

Directors from the Teaching Affairs Office, Enrollment and Employment Department, and Security Department, also secretaries from different departments of the Party Branch participated in the event.
