Call of duty
Wang Dinghua, the university's Party secretary, says the school aims to nurture the potential of its students and boost the country's ties with the world.
In an interaction with faculty members ahead of Teachers' Day earlier this month, Wang reminded them of President Xi Jinping's message last year on how to promote mutual understanding between nations.
Right before the university celebrated its 80th anniversary on Sept 25, 2021, Xi replied to a letter by the school's senior professors, hoping that the university will cultivate more interdisciplinary patriotic talents with global vision and professional skills.
In the letter, Xi emphasized that foreign language universities have the strength to boost China's bond with other countries and urged BFSU to explore talent on the campus to achieve the said goal.
