The school has transferred about 300 young and middle-aged backbone teachers, teaching assistants and management cadres from other provinces, and universities and other units in the province have supported more than 60 teachers and teaching assistants. At the same time, all provinces, cities and universities in China actively donated books.

Due to the shortage of teaching materials and textbooks at that time, teachers carried forward the spirit of self-reliance and wrote without teaching materials; Do it yourself without teaching AIDS; If there is no laboratory, organize it yourself. Although the faculty and staff come from all over the country and don't know each other, they don't do anything outside their duties, understand each other, take care of each other and have deep feelings.
