Fan Liming, president of Shandong University, said at the opening ceremony of 20 17 freshmen, "I have studied and worked in Shanda for nearly 30 years and have deep feelings for the school. In July this year, I returned to my alma mater after a five-year absence as the principal, just two months later. It is a kind of trust that everyone chooses Shandong University. For me, learning the first lesson today is a responsibility and a mission. " ?
Fan Liming introduced two glorious periods in the history of Shandong University: the first glory was in 1930s, and famous scholars such as Wen Yiduo, Liang Shiqiu, Yang Zhensheng, Lao She and Shen Congwen wrote magnificent chapters in the history of literature. The second glory was in 1950s, when China's classical literature and Chinese philology, represented by Feng, Lu Kanru, Xiao Difei and others, took Yang Xiangkui,,, and "eight horses in the same trough" as the historical banner, making Shandong University an important research center of literature and history at home and abroad. ?
Fan Liming also used the cases of Wen Yiduo, Wang, Tong Dizhou, Zeng Chengkui, Peng Shige and others to encourage freshmen to have "feelings of home and country" and "dare to be the first". ?
She said that Wen Yiduo, then head of the Chinese Department of Shandong University, had a beard for eight years to express his determination to resist Japan. On the Victory Day of the Anti-Japanese War, he first went to the barber shop and shaved off his beard for eight years. Wang, the founder of "Two Bombs and One Satellite" who once taught in the Physics Department of Shandong University, has linked his personal ambition with the destiny of his motherland since his youth. After receiving his doctorate in Germany, Wang resolutely returned to China to serve; When the country was in economic difficulties, he did not hesitate to donate his personal savings to the motherland; When the country needed it, he gave up his familiar research field and started all over again; Forging heavy weapons for our country, he went to Qinghai Plateau and Gobi in Xinjiang anonymously and devoted himself to the development of nuclear weapons, making outstanding contributions to our country. ?
Fan Liming said, "I hope that students will often visit the school history museum, personally experience the people and things behind the thick history of the school, and personally feel the responsibility and responsibility of great men of all ages. They should be ambitious, do great things, not seek to be big officials, stick to their initial intentions, learn from themselves, do their best, be responsible for our times, our country, and world civilization and human progress!
