Welcome to NTNU 2007 Freshmen's Introductory Ceremony
<p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt"><font face="Arial">BY AN-LIN SUN<br />
Nervous, excited—and a little bit stiff. More than 1’500 freshmen congregated in the auditorium this morning. Ushered by one or two “counseling students” of their own departments, freshmen are arranged to seat on their allotted seats. The first speech given to them was made by Yih-Shun Gou (郭義雄), President of NTNU. He expected the students under the stage to enrich their capability of languages-- not only their native tongue and English, but also other languages. “Professions like marketing and business are also important.” Gou added, “That’s why we prepare a series of business-specialized course packages for you to take.” <br />
In addition, President Gou encouraged these teenagers to participate in activities and events beyond their major curriculums, and NTNU’ interior clubs are one of the good choices. From experiences of joining one or two clubs, students are supposed to have a more mature understanding of the essence of cooperation. <br />
After Gou’s inspiring speech, freshmen are taught to sing NTNU’s alma mater. During the introductory ceremony, they are instructed to be more NTNU like. </font></span></p>
