Deputy Secretary of the CPC Committee Zhang Hongxin delivered a speech on passion, responsibility, care and the bottom line, expressing the direction student work should take and conveying his expectation of delivering the work well. He noted that school counselors are life mentors and bosom friends in students’ healthy growth. Efforts should be made to comprehensively promote the educational practices of promoting students’ morality, wisdom, physical health, beauty and labor. It is important to build a multi-level and cross-field educational system and strive to cultivate youths with moral integrity and professional competence, harmonious physical and mental health as well as aesthetic literacy and a spirit of hard work in the new era.

As the pacesetters of ideological and political education at colleges and universities in the new era, counselors should work with care and responsibility to be both an intimate friend but also pioneers in students’ growth. They should foster a healthy atmosphere so that the whole process of talent training is involved with the participation of all faculties in all aspects. With fairness and justice, more talents will be cultivated to shoulder the responsibility of national rejuvenation. Finally, he encouraged that all school counselors should adhere to their original aspiration to education, live up to the mission of cultivating virtuous talents to inject strong ideological and political momentum into the university’s Double First-Class Initiative development.
