The start of the new semester for this academic year is upon us.
After the Spring Festival, university students from all over the country have started to return to their campuses, continuing their studies in the halls of knowledge.
March 5th marks the official start of the semester at Mist City Arts and Science University.
All the more than 30,000 students have returned to the campus without fail. Once again, the campus of Mist City Arts and Science University brims with life.
As early as February, construction had already begun on the expansion of Mist City Arts and Science University.
Tianfu Construction Group promised to complete a batch of dormitory buildings and academic buildings during the summer vacation.
This was all part of Ding Yue’s plan.
In fact, at the end of this summer vacation, Mist City Arts and Science University will be welcoming its third cohort of freshmen.
Time seems to be passing quickly, Ding Yue thought unexpectedly.
He has been busy building his Mist City Arts and Science University, but enjoyed the process enormously.
Especially given the university has had one achievement after another in this process, a feeling that is simply fantastic.
On this same day, March 5th, though all the students of Mist City Arts and Science University had returned to school and officially started their classes,
There was a group of students who were temporarily leaving Mist City Arts and Science University, their return date uncertain.
These students were those from the College of Agriculture at Mist City Arts and Science University participating in the Rural Support Project!
This afternoon, Ding Yue will personally send them off on their "expedition".
Director Xiao Wenxing of the Mist City Education Bureau will also be there, given the college’s participation in the Rural Support Project was related to a conference he had attended.
Director Jia Nong was already waiting with nearly two hundred students from the College of Agriculture. Luggage and equipment had all been loaded onto the vehicle.
Director Xiao Wenxing was still en route.
"Director Jia, you are in charge of leading the team for this rural support trip. If you need anything, feel free to inform the school,"
Ding Yue walked up to Director Jia nong and said with serious concern, "But once we get there, let’s complete the task well. Do you understand what I mean?"
"Mmm, Principal Ding, of course, I do. We’re going to provide technical and knowledge guidance. Our aim is to help the villagers to prosper and we will provide guidance on agricultural-economic crop cultivation based on the actual situation."
Jia Nong nodded vigorously, speaking very earnestly.
Ding Yue trusted Director Jia’s word, since he had always been decisive. He spent the entire winter vacation actively preparing for the Rural Support Project.
Ding Yue extended his hand, gave Director Jia a gentle pat on the shoulder. This was a signal that he was entrusting the responsibility of the Rural Support Project to him.
Ding Yue looked at the nearly two hundred students behind Director Jia.
There were actually more than two hundred students who registered, but as Ding Yue expected, some students couldn’t participate due to family reasons.
So finally, the number of students from the College of Agriculture who set off to participate in the Rural Support Project today totalled 197.
Ding Yue raised his voice, worried that the students in the back might not hear.
When the students heard Principal Ding’s voice, the idle chats quieted down, and they all turned their gaze to Principal Ding.
"Students, going to participate in the school’s Rural Support Project, I believe you can surely make achievements. This is an opportunity, a test for all of your agriculture specialties. I hope that everyone can overcome difficulties, ultimately achieve victory in the Rural Support Project and definitely return safely. Did you hear me?"
Ding Yue emphasized the word ’safety’ on purpose.
These are all students from his Mist City Arts and Science University, so of course, what Ding Yue was most concerned about was their safety.
Although there isn’t much danger in participating in the Rural Support Project, Ding Yue still had some worries deep down.
After all, they will be going to remote and poor areas.
But no matter how remote and poor these areas are, communication would not be a problem, so if any problems arise, Ding Yue had instructed Director Jia to inform him immediately.
The students chorused, their voices quite loud.
"Your subsidy of 10,000 yuan for the Rural Support Project will be deposited into the bank accounts you provided within three days. In addition, after completing the Rural Support Project and coming back, each student can receive a corresponding academic credit."
Ding Yue affirmed firmly his promise of "benefits" to the students, assuring them that he would certainly make good on his promises.
The student were elated.
"Moreover, the school is also working quickly on the construction of your College of Agriculture’s modern Ecological Agriculture Garden. When you return from your Rural Support Project, you should be able to see your college’s brand new modern Ecological Agriculture Garden."
Ding Yue impassioned once more spoke to the students.
The construction of a modern Ecological Agriculture Garden by the school is very important to the students of the College of Agriculture.
It could be considered an "experimental lab" for them.
The Physics Department has a physics laboratory, the engineering department has a variety of advanced equipment and various project laboratories, and the Medical College has medical experiment laboratories.
For Agricultural College, a modern Ecological Agriculture Garden is where students can perform experiments related to their specialties.
