Counselors from the School of Physics, the School of Mechanics and Aerospace Engineering, and the School of Mathematics jointly held the "Original Thinking" series of competitions to learn Xi Jinping's Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics in the New Era. The event was attended by the Deputy Secretary of the university's party committee, Yu Minming, relevant unit leaders, all counselors, student party branch representatives, and youth league branch representatives. The "Original Thinking" activity is a continuation of the "Original Learning of Party History" activities held by the three schools. The aim is to organize counselors, student party branches, and youth league branches to learn the "Outline of Xi Jinping's Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics in the New Era" without using computers, mobile phones, or PPTs, but instead using a book, a pen, and a heart to learn the ideology thoroughly, understand the spirit seriously, and express the experience authentically. Through the form of hosting competitions in turn, the activity aims to promote the integration of learning, thinking, and practice.
Liao Jun, the party secretary of the School of Marxism, demonstrated the learning of the first chapter of the "Outline." He elaborated on the five "news" of Chinese socialism, including the new changes in the primary contradiction of society, the new breakthroughs in the Party's theoretical innovation, the new goals of the Party and the country's development, the new international situation, and the new style of the Party's centennial history. This helped the teachers and students present to deeply understand the significance of "Chinese socialism entering a new era."
Counselors from the three schools shared their experiences of the second, third, and fourth chapters of the "Outline" on the "ring." The wonderful speeches of the three counselors were applauded by the teachers and students present, and other counselors also shared their experiences. The teachers and students present scored the performance of the three counselors. Yu Minming, the Deputy Secretary of the university's party committee, highly affirmed the effectiveness of the "Original Thinking" competition in his concluding speech. He said, "Learning without friends leads to ignorance and narrow-mindedness." Today's competition brought together teachers and students from the three schools, showcasing the solid theoretical foundation of the counselors and the diligent work style of the student work team. He hopes that the competition will continue to achieve results and become a brand. He also expressed his hope for all counselors and students: first, all counselors need to deepen their work concept of "putting students first," persist in getting to know students, caring for students, and guiding them to develop strong friendships and good relationships with teachers and students, which can further transform into love for the alma mater and the country. Second, all students need to shoulder the historical mission, actively participate in the great cause of national rejuvenation, and create youth achievements worthy of the times with full enthusiasm, solid skills, and strong will, and fly their youth dreams in the vivid practice of actively participating in the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.
