New Book Launch and Sharing Session Held for “Our Northwest University”

On the eve of the university's 124th anniversary, the book Our Northwest University was officially released, and its launch and sharing session was held at the Chang’an campus on October 14.

As one of the volumes in the Our Universities book series, for which professor Chen Pingyuan serves as chief editor, the book is edited by professor Li Hao and professor Jiang Caiyan of our university. Focusing on “figures of the university” and supplemented by “old photographs,” the book invited relatives, disciples and university-history experts to contribute articles. It collects 35 pieces in the form of prose, essays and brief biographies, recalling a number of distinguished former scholars of Northwest University such as Li Yizhi, Zhang Qizhi, Chen Zhi, Ma Changshou and Yang Zhongjian, and recreating the academic journeys and personal integrity of the older generation of scholars who took root in the Northwest, built up their undertakings through hard work, and devoted themselves to serving the country.
