Chapter 184, Spirit and Soul

Office of the President of Galaxy University of Science and Technology.

"Are there only 505 students coming to report?"

"Sure enough, as expected, there were more than 200 people missing."

"Alas~"

As soon as the three-day opening time passed, the number of students enrolled in Galaxy University of Science and Technology also came out.

Qin Yi couldn't help but sigh when he took the data, fame is really too important, his school was founded, without any fame, more than 700 students were admitted, and in the end there were only 505 who were willing to come to study, which was half of Qin Yi's goal of recruiting 1,000 students.

Sigh and sigh, although there are only 505 students, Qin Yi knows that this is also the trust of 505 students in the school and himself, and it is also the expectation of 505 families for their children's future.

Putting away his emotions, Qin Yi took out his pen and began to write a manuscript, the draft of the speech at the first school meeting of the university.

Qin Yi feels that this matter is very important, a university should not only have strong hardware facilities, but also have a soul.

Only a school with its own soul, or rather a spirit, can pass on this soul and spirit from generation to generation.

This is like an army, every army from its founder has injected the military soul into the army, the people in the army are constantly changing with the passage of time, but the military soul is never changing, and the army with the military soul can be called a real army.

The same is true for universities~

Qin Yi has read a lot of civilization in the science and technology tower, and almost all of them believe that the most important thing about a university is not a strong infrastructure, but the ability to influence the soul or spirit of generations.

One of the most direct manifestations is the school motto, 'self-improvement, virtue', 'thinking and ambition, asking questions and thinking closely', 'fairness and fairness, changing with each passing day'.......

Well-known universities in China have done a very good job in this regard, instilling such thoughts, instilling a spirit, and instilling a soul in their students.

This spirit and soul can accompany and influence a lifetime, so that their students can benefit a lot and be used for a lifetime.

It can be said that this kind of spiritual or spiritual transmission is the most valuable wealth of these well-known universities, and the knowledge learned in universities is even more secondary.

Famous foreign universities attach great importance to this aspect, such as the motto of Harvard University, "Be friends with Aristotle, be friends with Plato, and be friends with truth", which is to tell their students to pursue excellence and truth.

So how is a university, in fact, the most important thing is to see whether the university has a spirit, a soul, many colleges and universities have a very good school motto, but they do not really practice their own school motto, there are empty slogans, but there is no soul and spirit.

Qin Yi has been thinking about the spirit and soul of Galaxy University of Science and Technology for a long time, and Qin Yi has been thinking about this question since he wanted to establish Galaxy University of Science and Technology.

Think about what kind of soul and spirit you should inject into this school, and how you should continue this soul and spirit all the way through, so that it can truly integrate into the soul of every Star University of Science and Technology student.

Qin Yi took a brush and wrote lines on the scratch paper, paused from time to time, thought carefully, shook his head from time to time, crumpled the scratch paper into a ball and threw it into the trash.

Compared with running a business and engaging in scientific research, Qin Yi has never felt that the responsibility on his shoulders is so heavy, and this teaching and educating people is indeed the most difficult and important thing in the whole world.

How far a person can achieve depends largely on what he has learned.

Some people may say that Zhu Yuanzhang is illiterate and a beggar, he can be the emperor, and there are many bosses with little culture in the real society, is this knowledge and culture really that important?

The person who said this sentence will definitely not know probability, Zhu Yuanzhang didn't read much when he was a child, but when he grew up, he was very hardworking, fighting with others for the world, while governing the world, he also read at the same time, and he definitely read no fewer books than those who took the so-called imperial examination.

As for saying that you can be a boss without culture, how low is the probability? There may not be one in 10,000 people, and even if you become a boss, your achievements may not be great, and the more you become a boss, the more you will know the importance of knowledge, and the more you will regret not reading in the first place.

Knowledge is very important~

Qin Yi felt that the burden on his shoulders was very heavy, and he was very attentive to everything in Galaxy University of Science and Technology, and Qin Yi was afraid that he would mistake people.

……

In the Great Hall of Galaxy University of Science and Technology, teachers and students from all over the school gathered together to attend the opening ceremony of Galaxy University of Science and Technology.

Lao Liu, the number one in Jiangnan Province, and Lao Xia, the second in command, were also very face-saving, and personally attended the opening ceremony of Galaxy University of Science and Technology, and the department in charge of education also sent a congratulatory message.

In front of the Great Hall, there are more than 100 teachers and professors, any of whom were well-known teachers and professors from famous universities in China, as well as more than a dozen experts from the two academies, who are not only teachers of Galaxy University of Science and Technology, but also important scientists of Galaxy Science Research Institute.

At the back of the Great Hall sat 505 freshmen of the first class of Galaxy University of Science and Technology, and everyone was sitting at this time, watching Qin Yi step by step onto the podium, all looking forward to Qin Yi's speech.

Looking at the teachers and students sitting in the Great Hall, Qin Yi took a breath lightly and slowly spoke.

"Thank you very much for believing in me Qin Yi and choosing to join the big family of Galaxy University of Science and Technology~"

"We come from all over the world, and we came here for various reasons to become the first batch of teachers and students of Galaxy University of Science and Technology."

"As early as when I had the idea of founding Galaxy University of Science and Technology, I was thinking, how can a university be called a university?"

"What is the purpose of its existence?"

Qin Yi's voice was not loud, but it was very clearly transmitted to the ears of every teacher and student present.

Hearing Qin Yi's words, many teachers also thought about it carefully, and the vice principals Chen He and Ye Lan are both well-known educators, and they also have their own very deep thinking and understanding of this issue.

As for the many students under the podium, they also frowned one by one, thinking about what a university is, what is the meaning of a university, and what is the purpose of studying at a university by themselves.

This is a question worth pondering, and one with countless answers.

After a slight pause, Qin Yi continued to speak.

"In "The Book of Rites ~ University", it is said that the way of the university is in Mingmingde, in being close to the people, and in stopping at perfection~"

"It means that the purpose of the university is to promote the moral integrity of the elderly, to make people abandon the old and make the new, and to enable people to achieve the most perfect state."

"Every top well-known university has its own spirit and soul, which is like a fire, which is constantly spreading and continuing among generations of teachers and students, and generations of teachers and students are constantly pursuing excellence, pursuing truth, and contributing to the development and progress of mankind under the domination of this spirit and soul."

"You are the first batch of teachers and students of our Galaxy University of Science and Technology, and you will inject a spirit and soul into this school, which will influence every generation of teachers and students of Galaxy University of Science and Technology in the future."

"Maybe we will all grow old with the passage of time and eventually leave Galaxy University of Science and Technology, but the soul and spirit we have injected into this school will never be erased, and it will continue to be passed on with generations of teachers and students of Galaxy University of Science and Technology."

"This spirit and soul will affect every generation of teachers and students, and it will also be continuously spread by these teachers and students, just like a spark that can start a prairie fire and burn forever."

Speaking of this, Qin Yi's gaze became resolute and looked at the teachers and students present.

"We are the first batch of teachers and students of this school, and our words and deeds will have a far-reaching impact, and we will slowly form the soul and spirit of our Galaxy University of Science and Technology."

"The soul and spirit of a school is not to shout a slogan, not to find a stone to write it down, and not just to mention it at the beginning of the school year."

"The true spirit and soul of a school lies in the teachers and students of this school, in every word and every line of the teachers and students of this school, so every teacher and student present, every bit of your future in Galaxy University of Science and Technology will slowly condense our own soul and spirit of Galaxy University of Science and Technology, and this spirit and soul will be slowly passed on over time."

"I hope that everyone here, whether it is teachers or students, will remember this because we are the first teachers and students of this school, and we will inject the spirit and soul of this school into this school."

On the podium, Qin Yi's voice was very clearly transmitted to every teacher and student present.

Many teachers couldn't help but nod their heads one by one after hearing this, agreeing with Qin Yi's words very much, and at the same time feeling a very heavy responsibility on their shoulders.

As for the students present, at first they thought that they came to the university to study just to study, but now they couldn't help but sit up straight, as if they had a sense of mission, they were not only here to study, but also to create Galaxy University of Science and Technology, and to inject soul and spirit into this school.

"Establish a heart for heaven and earth, establish a life for the people, continue to learn for the saints, and open peace for all generations~"

Qin Yi looked at the teachers and students present, and gently recited these four famous words of Zhang Zai, a master of the Northern Song Dynasty, which was the soul and spirit that Qin Yi thought he should inject into this school after thinking about it for a long time.

Of course, this is not only to shout slogans, but more importantly, to really inject this soul and spirit into this school in the future.
