各位嘉宾,先生们,女士们,澳门沙金在线平的全体同事,各位家长,历届优秀院友和2018届毕业生们:上午好!
很高兴和大家一起分享这一快乐和充满期待的时刻。 今天,群贤毕至,在座的2018届毕业生们,你们是幸运的,在你们即将离开校园的今天,我们一同庆祝澳门沙金在线平成立十五周年,一起见证学院的成长!
十五年前,同样是在这样一个凤凰花开的季节,我和你们一样,怀着憧憬,跨越非典特殊期,来到了美丽的澳门沙金在线平,从此开启了一段难以忘却的人生。星星花草,荷花飘香;潺潺流水,绿树成荫。一旦相遇,便不想、不舍、不愿再离开。十五年的成长,使她逐渐变得美丽芬芳,更充满活力和激情。十五年风雨兼程,十五载薪火相传,见证了学院从无到有,从弱小到强大的光辉历程。
英语专业首届学生参加全国英语专业八级统考,英语专业首届学生毕业典礼,英语专业首届学生就业率达到98.6%,大学外语开始实行全面改革。那一年,她五岁了。
《大学英语》获得广东省精品共享课立项,建立学院网站第四版,确立院训为“博文博爱,厚德厚道”,承办广东省英语专业教学指导委员会首届年会,见证了首届英语学科教学教育硕士、首届日语专业和首届英语-对外汉语双专业即将毕业。那一年,她十岁了。
今天,她十五岁了,发展方向愈发清晰明朗,逐步形成了以公共外语教育为基础,以外语专业教育为核心,为广东省乃至全国培养“外语+技能专业”的复合型、应用型外语人才培养模式。十五年的奋斗,十五年的期盼,经过十几年的发展,我们骄傲地看到学院已经小有规模,这个大家庭里现有教职工72人,他们当中16名外籍教师,且1/4具有博士学位,1/5的中方教师在攻读博士学位,4/5的教师有海外学习或工作经历。
满园春色关不住,遍地桃李竞妖娆。办公室无论在乐育还是励耘,我们始终坚持做好人类灵魂的工程师,传播知识,培育希望。今后,我们将继续提高师资水平,引进高学历、高职称、高端人才,吸引优质外教,为外语教育教学提供最佳保障。同时,我们将努力申办博士点,不断提高办学层次,为国家输送更多优秀人才。
而对于2018届的毕业生们,我对你们同样充满期望与祝福。明天你们或将走上工作岗位,或继续国内读研,又或者出国深造,今天将意味着你们重要且值得祝贺的大学四年将画上一个完美的句号,但同时,今天更是人生的新起点。希望你们不会忘记第一天入学时的热情与兴奋, 第一次专四考试时的紧张与期待,也不会忘记抗击台风天鸽的难忘经历,以及象征我校生态良好的网红北师“猪”。......纸短情长,诉不完的北师故事,相信这些都是你们人生中的宝贵体验。同时更希望你们在今后的生活与工作中,秉承“学为人师,行为世范”的校训,以及“博文博爱,厚德厚道”的院训,常怀一颗感恩之心,志存高远,脚踏实地,投入到新时代的大潮,实现自己的梦想。
亲爱的毕业生们,未来你们的脚步必将遍布祖国山河、世界各地,我们期待再过若干年,你们也能像今天在座的优秀院友一样,重回母校,感受母校取得的辉煌。大学四年时光是短暂而宝贵的,但也许正是因为它的转瞬即逝,才成为我们每个人不能忘怀的青春岁月。请你们铭记,在今后的人生道路上,无论你们走得多远,飞得多高,澳门沙金在线平永远是你们的家,欢迎常回家看看。
回首往昔,我们为你的精彩自豪,展望未来,我们期待你的进步。过去的十五年已经成为历史,今后无数个辉煌的十五年等着我们去创造。我坚信,在全体师生的共同努力下,澳门沙金在线平定能取得更大的发展!最后,在大家启程的这一刻,祝同学们毕业快乐,万事如意!
Speech at the Graduation Ceremony of 2018 and 15th Anniversary of SFL
Tao Wenhao
30 June 2018
Good morning, distinguished guests, ladies and gentlemen, staff members of the School of Foreign Languages, family members and especially all graduates of all years!
It is my great happiness to be here with you today to celebrate a day filled with joy and hopes. Graduates of 2018, how lucky you are to witness the growth of School of Foreign Languages at this 15th Anniversary ceremonial moment during your departure time with those marvelous graduates of all years.
Strongly inspired by a dream, I came to BNUZ 15 years ago at a similar season like today after a severe epidemic SARS and commenced my unforgettable life journey. I felt in love with this starry grassland, blooming lotus, murmuring waterfalls and lush trees and promised to keep her hands for the rest of my life from then on. The past 15 years has experienced her development and growth of SFL, seeing the efforts and cultural transmission and witnessing the foundation and achievements as well.
It was in the year of 2008 that the students of English majors took their first TEM 8; it was in the same year that the students of 2008 celebrated their graduation; it was in that year the employment rate of SFL reached 98.6%; it was in that year an all-round reform of College English teaching was conducted. Yes, it was her 5th birthday.
Later on, College English was rated as one of the “Quality Resource-sharing Courses” of Guangdong Province. The 4th version of SFL website was adjusted. The school motto “Love, knowledge, morality and integrity” was proposed. The SFL hosted the 1st Annual Conference of Guangdong Provincial Teaching Committee of English Majors. Students of double majors from the collaborative program English major and TCFL(Teaching Chinese as a Foreign Language)were about to graduate. Yes, it was her 10th birthday.
Today, it is her 15th birthday and a mature and well-planned developing school is standing before us. Since its foundation, the school has been constantly aiming to train first-rate interdisciplinary, independent English and Japanese professionals for Guangdong Province and the country at large by taking College English teaching as its basis and English and Japanese teaching as its core tasks. Now, I am proud of having such a strong staff of 72 members, among which 16 are native teachers of English or Japanese, 1/5 Chinese teachers are pursuing their doctoral degrees and 4/5 Chinese staff once had their education or work abroad.
Where there is ability, there is fame. The school has been exploring every avenue to fine-tune its talent training and cultivation either in the offices of Liyun Building or Leyu Building. It is ardently expected soon that more outstanding teaching staff with PhDs and high academic titles will be employed thus guaranteeing a high-quality teaching. We also manage to conduct PhD education in talent cultivation in the coming future.
For the graduates of 2018, I also have my expectations and blessings. You will have accomplished your genuinely important and worth celebrating campus life today, either going to work or pursuing your further studies home or abroad. It is not an end of learning but a commencement for another page. Do you still remember the excitement and enthusiasm on your first school day? Do you remember the anxiety and worries when you were preparing for your first TEM 4? Do you still remember the voluntary work in typhoon Hato? Do you still remember the web celebrity “BNUZ pig” in this environmental friendly university? … Should all these memories be forgotten in our lifetime? At the same time, I would like to request all of you to keep the mottos of BNUZ and SFL in mind. “Of Studies, Be the Master; Of Behavior, Be the Model” and “Love, Knowledge, Morality and Integrity” will be served as guidelines for your action in the following days. Be grateful, ambitious and diligent, devote yourself to a higher civic engagement in the new era, you will then find your dreams come true in the striving life.
My dear graduates, you are going to begin a new life in the different places. I hope some of you could come back one day in the future like your outstanding fellow students today to share the achievements of the school. Four years is short but priceless, deeply rooted in our young life. Please remember, no matter how much distance there exists between us, you are our children forever! Please stay in touch because we are one family!
Looking back, we feel proud of your excellence. Looking forward, we are full of expectations towards your achievements. The past 15 years has gone and we stand ready to write and describe the history of another 15 years. I firmly believe that a bright future of SFL is there waiting for us. Happy graduation and wish you all the best as you begin your adventures that lie ahead!
