In order to inspire young people's sense of responsibility and mission in China's modernization construction, and to thoroughly implement and study General Secretary Xi Jinping's important thoughts on youth work and the spirit of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Youth League, the Junior Youth League School held an lecture in the form of an online meeting at 20:00 on the evening of September 28, 2024 [Work hard and Persevere - Draw a New Chapter for the Junior Youth League School, and Devote Our Youth to the Party], and organized all members to study the spirit of the lecture.
The meeting was divided into three agendas: introduction to the positioning of the Junior Youth League School of the Law School, a League lecture given by the deputy secretary of the Youth League Committee, and group photos.
First, Yang Qianwen, member of the Theoretical Research Department, gave a detailed introduction to the positioning of the Junior Youth League School of the Law School, emphasizing that the Junior Youth League School is an important base for the University's Communist Youth League's ideological and political education, and its purpose is to cultivate the League School members' unswerving faith in the Party. One of the main tasks of the Junior Youth League School is to serve the recommendation of outstanding members for joining the Party and to organize League members of 18 years of age or older who wish to join the Party to participate in theoretical learning activities at the Junior Youth League School.
Then, Yang Qianwen led everyone to interpret the scoring criteria for the Junior Youth League School results one by one: the Junior Youth League School is divided into three sections: theory, practice and interest. The score of compulsory activities accounts for at least twice that of elective activities, and excellent reflections will be given extra points. She also emphasized that a League member may ask for leave no more than three times within a school year, otherwise he or she will be disqualified from selection as an outstanding member of the Junior Youth League School.
Afterwards, Zhang Zhuoyuan, deputy secretary of the Youth League Committee, gave the League members a theme lecture titled "Carrying on the Torch - The Revolutionary Gene of the 120-Year School History".
With full enthusiasm and vivid language, Zhang Zhuoyuan led us through the corridor of time, allowing us to savor the glorious history of the founding of Beijing Normal University and the early days of the founding of the Party. She told the story in detail, describing the germination and thriving growth of the first grassroots Party organization of Beijing Normal University, and recounted the touching stories of those outstanding revolutionary pioneers and excellent alumni with deep emotion. These precious memories, like bright stars, illuminate the glorious road of the University as a "Revolutionary Normal School" and profoundly demonstrate its endless revolutionary genes and heritage.
In the torrent of the patriotic and national salvation movement, the teachers and students of the University bravely took on the responsibility of pioneers and experienced the baptism of the historical climax - whether it was the May 4th Movement or the December 9th Movement, they all demonstrated their sense of patriotism and responsibility. The May 4th spirit, like a gentle spring breeze, nourishes every young heart, conveys the concepts of patriotism, progress, democracy and science, and still shines brightly after a hundred years. The tragic deeds of teachers and students who sacrificed their lives for the country during the December 9th Movement are engraved in the history books and will be passed down for thousands of years, inspiring generation after generation of young people to work hard for the prosperity of the country.
Entering a new era, our teachers and students have stepped up to shoulder their responsibilities and continue to write a new chapter in the history of Beijing Normal University. Beijing Normal University never stops its education cause. Beijing Normal University stays true to its original mission from generation to generation.
Summary
If the youth are strong, the country is strong. As students of Beijing Normal University, we must not only deeply explore and inherit the long historical traditions of the University, but also bear in mind General Secretary Xi Jinping's earnest instructions of "having dreams in mind while being down-to-earth, daring to think and act, and being good at doing things and achieving success." With the motherland in mind and the people in heart, we will remain committed and unremitting in our efforts to live up to the ardent expectations of the Party and the people!
