At two o'clock in the afternoon on June 13, 2018, the School of Social Sciences held the 2018 graduate graduation ceremony and degree award ceremony in the academic lecture hall of the student activity center. Ying Xing, Dean of the School of Sociology, Wang Yingwei, Secretary of the Party Committee of the School, Ma Ai, Vice Dean, Zhao Bingxiang, Vice Dean, You Zhenglin, Dean of the Department of Sociology, Wang Guofang, Dean of the Department of Psychology, Xiong Guibin, Dean of the Department of Social Work and Social Policy, Class of 2018 All graduates, teachers of various majors, college counselors, parents of some graduates and classmates from other grades attended the ceremony. The ceremony kicked off after the entire chorus sang the national anthem.
First of all, Professor Ma Ai, the deputy dean, announced the "Decision of China University of Political Science and Law to Approve the 2018 Graduate and Undergraduate Graduation of the School of Sociology". Associate Dean Professor Zhao Bingxiang announced the "Decision of China University of Political Science and Law to award the 2018 postgraduate master's degree and graduate bachelor's degree of the School of Sociology". Wang Yingwei, secretary of the Party Committee of the Academy, announced the "Decision of the School of Social Sciences to Commend Excellent Graduates in the 2018 Academy". Then, Dean Ying Xing and Secretary Wang Yingwei issued certificates to representatives of outstanding graduates.
Teacher Tang Xiyuan, an excellent teacher who has been teaching in our school for many years, is about to retire, ending her years of serious and responsible education career. Professor Ma Ai, the deputy dean, issued a letter of appointment for a distinguished researcher, and the representative of the undergraduate graduates presented a bouquet of flowers to Teacher Tang to express his gratitude and blessings.
Teacher representative Zheng Hongli sent a message to graduates. First of all, she congratulated all graduates on their successful graduation. In the future life, I hope everyone can face knowledge and wisdom with a peaceful mind. Having knowledge may make us too proud, or it may make us experience more troubles than others. "But God has given us hope and sleep in order to compensate for all the troubles in the world." Therefore, when you are troubled, keep hope, go to bed early, leave today's troubles for today, and wake up again a full day, because "one day's troubles are enough." Teacher Zheng expressed his best wishes and hopes to the graduates in light and humorous words, which drew laughter and applause from the audience.
The undergraduate graduates spoke on behalf of Cui Wentao. Cui Wentao believed that after four years of study in the School of Sociology, he truly felt that the college and major he studied was a good helper in social practice. He recalled the bit by bit of his studies, life, club activities and social practice in the four years of university. It was the four years of studying in the School of Sociology that allowed him to have multiple platforms to participate in social practice, increase his experience, and lay the foundation for a better understanding of society, integration into society, contribution to society, and becoming a "social person" in line with the times . I hope that every graduate wishes that we can keep good memories in our hearts and send sincere blessings to each other.
The graduate student spoke on behalf of Liu Xiao. She said that Fa University is a place that encourages you to dream and makes you believe that your dreams will eventually shine into reality. After graduation, everyone will take on the difficult work alone and face various unforeseen challenges. But fortunately, on the road to the future, my dear alma mater has given us enough efforts to solve these problems. You can't work hard at all times, but you must work harder than anyone for a period of time. Finally, she used Mr. Liushahe's motto in the poem "Ideal" as a parting message: "Please take the ideal horse and start with a whip. The spring on the road is just right, and the sun is clear in the sky."
Professor Ying Xing, Dean of the School of Sociology, gave a graduation speech explaining the three realms of scholars. The first state is Wang Yangming's "Thieves are easy to break through the mountains, but difficult to break through the heart." What is the thief in the heart? Good fame and profit, lust for power and lust, are all thieves in their hearts. The egocentricism of scholars, the politics of vanity that Max Weber said, and the fascism in the hearts of ordinary people, as Foucault said, are all thief in their hearts. The thief in the heart is invisible and untouchable. Hidden in daily life, there is no major event, but it is diffused in our blood, and the harm is even greater because it is not detected. The second state is Mencius's "first stand on the big one, then the small one cannot be taken." How to distinguish between big and small is a test of our character and state of life. At the end of his career in academics, Weber told us that if everyone finds the patron saint who holds the string of his life and obeys it, this is actually plain and simple. What I want to add is that the process of searching for the patron saint of your life is not only spiritually happy, but also materially rewarding. There will be bread and houses. The third state is Wang Fuzhi's "The way of a villain, something must be done, nothing must be done; the way of a gentleman, something must not be done, nothing must be done". What we hear more is struggle, enterprising, and promising. But inaction is more important than action. Awe is far more important than boldness. There is a bottom line for doing things, and the persistence of not doing anything. Sometimes it is not possible to say and do everything, but it is not necessary to say and do nothing. In the end, he sent a message to all graduates that they must take care of their duties as scholars, not to be anxious or impatient. In the future, you may be complacent or frustrated, and perhaps Tenda may also be dull, but in any case, I hope that you will never forget the true nature of a scholar throughout your life. This is a gift from the School of Sociology, and I hope everyone will lead the world as a scholar. Ten years later, and 20 years later, we will meet again and smile with a knowing smile, still a scholar.
Finally, the end of the ceremony is also the most solemn degree-granting ceremony. The graduates dressed in bachelor's uniforms and hats came to the stage to receive the tuition ceremony and degree award from the teachers and took photos together. After the ceremony, the leaders, teachers and graduates of the college moved to take a group photo in front of the Fayuan Pavilion. The graduation ceremony and degree award ceremony of the 2018 graduates of the School of Social Sciences came to a successful conclusion.
