Last but not least, International College expressed heartfelt appreciation to the volunteers who worked hard during the fight against Covid-19. Back to the beginning of this year, international student volunteers provided support and assistance, in spite of numerous difficulties, to the international student community living on and off campus, such as helping distribute and donate medical supplies like masks. Their perseverance and selflessness inspired all of us as an example.
This Awarding Ceremony is not only an affirmation of the awardees, but also an incentive for all international students. The International College hopes that international students of USTC will follow in the footsteps of the examples, improve their personal qualities such as self-discipline and resilience, and eventually become extraordinary international talents. |
