CWU Teachers and Students Recite Red Classics

Teachers and students from the School of Culture and Communication at China Women's University (CWU) participated in a poetry reading activity on June 24. 

The event was held to mark the 96th anniversary of the founding of the Communist Party of China (CPC) and embrace the upcoming 19th National Congress of CPC. 

Li Zhanshu, a member of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee and director of the General Office of the CPC Central Committee, attended the gathering, along with Zhang Qingli, vice-chairman and secretary-general of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political and Consultative Conference (CPPCC).

Officials from some 20 State-run administrations attended the event, which was sponsored by the National Government Officials Administration (NGOA).
Ge Lan, 85, a famous former TV announcer and distinguished CWU professor, led  25 CWU participants to recite Chairman Mao Zedong's poem Qinyuanchun Xue (Snow). 

The reading expressed teachers and students' love for the motherland and their loyalty to the Party. CWU participants' clear voice, graceful demeanor and deliberate Han Costume impressed the audiences and won great honor for the university.

Zang Haiqun, dean of CWU's School of Culture and Communication, said the event enhanced attendees' understanding of the Party and consolidated Party members' ideological and political consistency. She hoped all the participants would bear in mind President Xi Jinping's remarks on Party building, stay true to the mission taken up by the CPC 96 years ago and live up to the expectations of the All-China Women's Federation.
