Seeing that all the Dunhuang testaments had been received, the big stone in Sun Yuanqi's heart suddenly fell to the ground, and this night, the meal was also sweet; This night, the dream is also sweet.

On the morning of the second day, he asked Lao Zhao to find some people to transport the boxes in the house to Tong Wenlou. It's just that these cultural relics were taken in the name of the minister, not to mention that it is difficult for the students to see them, and even ordinary teachers don't know about them.

Of course, there are more treasures in the library, how can you hide Wang Guowei, a family member? When he opened the box and saw that the scrolls inside were full of scriptures from the Sui and Tang dynasties of the Northern and Southern Dynasties, his eyes were straight, he couldn't move away from staring at the paper, and his heartbeat seemed to have a tendency to stop suddenly. In the following years, as long as he did not go out, he hid in Tong Wenlou every day to sort out and study this historical treasure. This also created his great reputation as a "master of Chinese studies" later.

As a novice of Chinese studies, Sun Yuanqi felt that the moment he sent the Dunhuang testament to the library, his heavy responsibility had been completed, and the rest of the work was naturally done by scholars such as Wang Guowei and Luo Zhenyu. Moreover, he went out for two or three months, and accumulated a lot of things at hand, and the first thing to deal with was the graduation of the first class of students of Jingshi University.

Four years ago, Jingshi University admitted the first batch of more than 30 college students, and at that time there were only four departments: mathematics, physics, chemistry, and electronics. In the blink of an eye, four years have passed, and it is time for these students to graduate.

According to the plan, the dissertation defense and graduation ceremony should be held at the end of June and early July, but at that time, Sun Yuanqi still took a vote to hang around in the northwest, and Zhang Yuanji, Luo Zhenyu and other school leaders were all from the imperial examination. Hosted by other science and engineering classrooms, such as Albert Einstein, Mileva, Derek and others, it seems that it is not formal and grand enough, and the students are not in a hurry, only saying that they will wait for President Sun to return.

Now that Sun Yuanqi is back, naturally things can't be delayed any longer.

As the self-appointed chairman of the Academic Degrees Committee of Jingshi University, Sun Yuanqi conscientiously participated in the thesis defense of every student. The thesis defense of Jingshi University is not like going through the motions like the great leap forward of higher education in later generations, but each student has more than an hour to explain his or her own views thoroughly, and also to answer the questions of teachers and classmates.

Fortunately, the students are very well prepared, and the papers they write are more or less creative, and those graduation projects also give full play to the wisdom of the Chinese people, such as Li Guobing's electronic wipers, which can be used in future cars.

In the interval between the defense, Sun Yuanqi took the initiative to ask these students about their plans after graduation. Except for a few people like Pan Xian who are determined to stay in school for graduate school, more people are confused. Yes, confused

In this era, almost all the students who can come to Jingshi University to study these four majors have an almost paranoid love for science. In school, they learn knowledge, discuss academics, and are high-spirited and carefree. When they began to enter the society, they found that the reality was only a rigid life such as getting married and having children, raising a family, and being an official and doing business, and they could not find the slightest academic environment.

They can't find their place in society, so they are confused

Suddenly they found that what they had learned in four years was useless, so they were confused

The ambition of education retreats in the face of the cold reality, so they are confused

In this era, there is a need for officials, staff, and businessmen in society, as well as peasants, coolies, and recruits, but there is no need for a person who knows too much science and concentrates on academic studies, so they are confused

After thinking about it for a long time, Sun Yuanqi proposed three plans to them, hoping that this group of students could make their own choices:

First, if you are interested in studying abroad, the school is responsible for recommending to famous foreign schools and fully subsidizing the study and living expenses, and there is only one requirement: after returning to China, you must work at Jingshi University for a certain number of years.

Second, if you want to further your studies but don't want to go abroad, the Graduate School of Jingshi University welcomes everyone to study, and there will be corresponding subsidies.

Third, if you want to work, there is currently a shortage of teachers in the universities, middle schools and primary schools of Jingshi University, so you can stay in the school to teach and ensure a generous salary; If you don't want to stay in the capital, the school can also be responsible for contacting schools in other places.

After a few days of careful consideration, about half of the students chose to work and teach, and nearly half chose to continue their studies at the graduate school of Jingshi University, and only a few chose to go abroad, such as Zhou Zongwu, who wanted to go to UC Berkeley to continue to study radioactive decay with Professor Martin.

Three sessions in the morning, three sessions in the afternoon, and two sessions in the evening, and finally completed the student's thesis defense within a week. This was followed by the graduation ceremony.

On August 7, 1905, the first graduation ceremony of the first students of Jingshi University was held in the lecture hall of the Chengke Hall. Sun Yuanqi, Zhang Yuanji, Luo Zhenyu, Albert Einstein and other teachers sat on the stage wearing tutor uniforms, and in addition to the graduates wearing degree uniforms, there were other college, middle and primary school students in the school.

Some people may ask: In the last years of the Qing Dynasty, were there any tutor uniforms, degree uniforms and other things in the world? The answer is yes.

In fact, at the beginning of the 13th century, the University of Paris pioneered the degree system. At that time, there were three levels of degrees: doctoral, master's and bachelor's, and in order to reflect the different levels of academic knowledge at the degree ceremony, the fashion designer was asked by the president of the University of Paris to design a uniform degree gown. In the 18th century, a tutor's uniform was added to the degree gown, which was worn by the president of the degree-awarding institution and the degree supervisor when attending the dissertation defense meeting, the degree conferment ceremony and various ceremonies.

The tutor uniforms and degree gowns that everyone is wearing now are all imitated by the skillful hands of the school workers according to the samples that Sun Yuanqi brought back from the United States. The robe is embroidered with the Great Wall pattern at the cuffs, the front buttons of the robe are made of traditional Chinese cloth black ruyi buttons, and the pullover triangle pocket drape is made of brocade woven with Chinese national patterns, with ethnic characteristics different from those of other countries.

Maybe it's because of the worry about the future, maybe it's because of the sadness of the upcoming parting, or maybe the graduation ceremony itself is heavy, and the atmosphere in the audience is obviously a little depressing. After Zhang Yuanji introduced the situation of this year's students, it was the turn of President Sun Yuanqi to deliver a graduation speech.

When Sun Yuanqi walked to the microphone, Lao Zheng led a middle-aged man in his forties into the lecture hall and found a vacant seat at the end of the venue. Sun Yuanqi thought that he was the parent of the student and came to attend the graduation ceremony, so he didn't care, so he began to give a speech:

"First of all, I would like to thank you on behalf of Jingsei University. Four years ago, it was still a desolate place, but it was your arrival that turned this vast mountain forest into a hot land for learning

"Secondly, I thank you personally in my capacity. Thank you for accompanying me through the wonderful four years of my life and giving me the courage and motivation to build a magnificent university. It can be said that every textbook in the school is permeated with your hard work

"Four years of getting along day and night have forged our strong teacher-student friendship and brotherly friendship. Now that the separation is imminent, I want to say a few heartfelt words to you, which should be a parting gift, and I hope you can write it down.

"The first is to love the country and be loyal to our nation. The imperialist powers will inevitably use various methods to infiltrate our country, and you intellectuals, in particular, are the objects of their bribery. You must uphold your true heart, not be moved by coercion and temptation, and fulfill the obligations and responsibilities that a Chinese son and daughter should fulfill. If you become a traitor and a thief, bring shame to the school, and blame the school for being ruthless, you will definitely expel such scum from the alumni list

"The second is to stay away from politics as much as possible. In the coming decades, there will be social upheaval and even more political turmoil. Moreover, the struggle between political enemies is done in every possible way, and once you get caught in it, it is difficult to get out of it. All of us here are studying science and engineering, and academic problems can be discussed, and mistakes can be corrected; But politics is labeled, and after it is attached, it is like a tattoo, which is difficult to wash away for a lifetime, and if you are wrong, you will never get ahead. Therefore, I advise everyone to stay away from politics as much as possible and concentrate on their own work.

"The third is not to forget to learn. In the Analects, it is said: 'The sun knows what it is going to do, and the moon does not forget what it does.' Since the beginning of this century, science has developed very rapidly, and you, as talents with advanced scientific knowledge, should actively pay attention to the new academic trends in the scientific community after entering the society. If you feel that you don't have enough knowledge one day, the doors of the school are always open to you, and you are warmly welcome to come back for tutoring.

"In the graduation defense a few days ago, you gave a gratifying answer sheet with the knowledge you have accumulated over the past four years. Now you are going to go to the broad society, and I hope that you will use your decades of life to hand over a satisfactory answer to yourself and to the school

"Students, everyone rise up and bear the rise and fall of the world

We are the fragrance of peach and plum today, and the pillars of society tomorrow;

We are singing together today, and tomorrow we will set off a giant of national self-improvement.

Students, quickly show your strength and take on the rise and fall of the world"

Sun Yuanqi ended his speech with the most exciting part of "Graduation Song". The audience responded with long-lasting warm applause.

Then Hu Xun, the representative of the graduates, made a speech and expressed his determination to the school.

Finally, there is the degree conferment ceremony. Vice President Luo Zhenyu is responsible for issuing graduation certificates, and Zhang Yuanji is responsible for degree certificates. The principal, Sun Yuanqi, is like a groom who unveils the bride's hijab at a wedding, turning the tassels of the degree recipients from the right to the left. Although this is only a slight flick, it marks the end of the degree and undergraduate studies. At this moment, many students' eyes were full of tears.

After taking a graduation photo, the students dispersed, either packing their bags alone or saying goodbye to their friends. Sun Yuanqi, who was a little sad, also got up and prepared to leave, but when he saw that the middle-aged man who had just entered the door was still sitting at the back of the lecture hall, he couldn't help but be curious, so he stepped forward to inquire.

The man hurriedly stood up and wiped the corners of his eyes: "I saw my classmates graduating just now, and I can't help but recall this scene twenty years ago, so I have a little gaffe, and I invite my junior Haihan"
