Led by Shi Meishan, a national-level curriculum ideological and political teaching master and Shandong provincial teaching master, new teachers took an oath collectively.
Diao Hongbin presented souvenirs to new teachers, and student representatives offered flowers to teachers.
The mid-year work conference followed immediately. Diao Hongbin reviewed the achievements of the summer and first-half work, and analyzed current challenges. He noted that the college is in a critical development stage. For the second half of the year, the college will follow the guideline of “breaking deadlocks through reform, boosting momentum via services and strengthening capacity through connotation development”, maintain campus safety, and advance three key tasks: reform of secondary management, enhancement of social services, and integrated innovation in majors, courses, teaching staff and training bases to raise core competitiveness.
President Han Xiqing arranged work plans for the second half of the year. He required the college to implement the annual “11351” work blueprint, focusing on six priorities: major project development, teaching reform, quality improvement, industry-university-research collaboration, governance system optimization and comprehensive Party leadership. He called on all staff to seize opportunities and advance the college’s transformation.
The conference adopted both on-site and online live-streaming modes. College leaders, department heads, awardees, new teachers and faculty representatives attended the main venue. Staff from some schools and functional departments watched the live broadcast online.
