From April 2065438 to April 2009, Fang Jingyun, academician of China Academy of Sciences, deputy director of Peking University Science Department and professor of ecology department, was officially employed as the president of Yunnan University, which attracted great attention from academic circles. From Beijing, the capital, to the border province of Yunnan, Fang Jingyun's appointment has also become a new opportunity for Yunnan University to accelerate the construction of a "double-class" university.
At the appointment meeting of the president of Dayun University, Fang Jingyun said frankly, "Although I have long-term experience in universities and scientific research institutions, I also have experience in studying and working abroad. I am confident that I am a serious and responsible person, but I have insufficient experience in the first university-level management position. "
Fang Jingyun said that he came to Dayun not to be a principal, but to do things, to serve teachers and students, and to realize his personal educational dream.
It is precisely because of such dreams and feelings that, with the support of Peking University, he came to this school that had little contact with him before and became the first president of this university appointed by the provincial party committee and government.
