Ding Lieyun's sensational "high-speed rail seat-bearing man" incident not long ago led to the topic of cultural quality education at Huazhong University of Science and Technology.
Old principal Yang Shuzi Academician once said: "A country and a nation, without science and technology, will collapse once it is fought; without humanistic spirit, you will collapse if you don't fight." The humanistic spirit is the cohesion of the Chinese nation, humanistic sentiment is the adhesive for the healthy development of society, and cultural quality education is a "compulsory course" for all young people to learn to adulthood.
Ding Lieyun said that Huazhong University of Science and Technology is a pioneer in cultural quality education. As early as the early 1980s, the school proposed to "take the path of integrated development" and created the atmosphere of reform of colleges and universities; in the 1990s, Huazhong University of Science and Technology took the lead in holding the banner of cultural quality education among domestic science and technology universities, and the "humanistic storm" quickly swept across the country. The school's unswerving mission is to cultivate students into outstanding talents with lofty ideals, noble personality, humanistic feelings, complete abilities and innovative spirit. In June this year, the Fourth Party Congress of Huazhong University of Science and Technology proposed: to build an outstanding , Huazhong University of Science and Technology in the new era, cultivate outstanding , Huazhong University of Science and Technology, and provide the best undergraduate education. Cultural quality education is the long-lasting new school philosophy of Central China, and it is also the characteristic and confidence of the school’s talent training.
Ding Lieyun said that the scientific spirit is the foundation of the world, and the humanistic spirit is the foundation of human beings. Science education gives you tools to understand and transform the world, humanities education teaches you the value and significance of behavioral choices, cultural quality education is to integrate science education and humanities education, and education "education" rather than "making tools".
Ding Lieyun's message to the new generation: For good cultural qualities, we must first care about our country and shoulder the heavy responsibility of the times; we must also cultivate people with virtue and cultivate humanistic feelings; and more demands are innovation and build a solid cultural foundation.
The cultural quality education of Zhongzhong University is not to cultivate Buddhist youth who are self-disciplined, but to build a harmonious society who loves oneself and others and is virtuous to the world. The cultural quality education at Zhongzhong University is not to cultivate talkers who sit and discuss, but to strivers with innovative spirit and practical workers who transform the world.
