Before her college entrance examination, her mother was admitted with a positive result. The admission letter number 001 belongs to the family of Wan Fengwei, East China Normal University, and alumni who have produced six alumni for three generations
"Receiving the 1st admission letter is even more of a motivation and motivation for me," said Wan Fengwei, which is like "fate like fate" for his family.
On July 11th, the admission notice No. 0001 of East China Normal University was personally delivered by Vice President Dai Liyi to the recipient Wan Fengwei, who became the sixth alumnus of this "alumni home". It is rare that in her family, her grandparents, uncles, mothers, and three generations spanning 63 years all have alumni.
Wan Fengwei graduated from Yichuan Middle School and achieved excellent results in the 2023 Shanghai Comprehensive Evaluation Examination at East China Normal University. She was eventually admitted to her dream school and her desired finance major. At the delivery site of the notice, Yin Desheng, Deputy Director of the Department of Economics and Management, presented her with the works of renowned economist, founder of China's International Finance discipline, and professor Chen Biaoru from East China Normal University. Zhou Limin, Director of the Admissions Office, also presented a creative freshman gift package.
Jiefang Daily's Shangguan News reporter learned that Grandpa Wan Fengwei studied at the Physics Department of East China Normal University from 1960 to 1965, and later stayed on as an associate professor of physics for nearly 40 years; My grandmother and I have a close relationship and are classmates in the Radio Physics major of the Physics Department at East China Normal University in 1964; My uncle is an alumni of the Computer Science Department in 1991; Mom Li Ye is an alumnus of the Department of Information Science at East China Normal University in 1994, and returned to school in 2006 to pursue a master's degree.
Just two weeks before the college entrance examination this year, Wan Fengwei's mother was recruited by COVID-19. Therefore, Xiaowan had to separate from his parents and move to his grandmother's house to continue studying and preparing for exams. "She is very calm and self-management is strict. She studies very late every day, but her schedule is orderly and her psychological quality is excellent. She studies with a down-to-earth spirit like a person from East China Normal University," praised her grandmother. "I comforted her parents not to be nervous at the time. She will definitely succeed, and I have confidence."
In Xiaowan's home, there are many old objects with memories of East China Normal University, including six graduation certificates signed by previous principals from different periods. Over 60 years of time have flowed on the covers of each certificate, which is not entirely the same.
Upon learning that his granddaughter had been admitted to East China Normal University, Grandpa Wan Fengwei was very pleased. "When I was admitted to East China Normal University from Jiangsu in 1960, the Physics Building was still under construction," my grandfather recalled. "We all went to help with the painting." After retiring in 2000, the college often invited him back to exchange and guide work. "I have found that the young people introduced now are becoming more and more outstanding, with top-notch academic backgrounds, rich academic achievements, and have won many awards. I am proud of the school!"
Becoming an excellent teacher for the people is my grandmother's dream. She was admitted to the radio physics major of the Physics Department of East China Normal University from Chongming. She studied hard and performed well when she was a classmate with Grandma Wan Fengwei. Both of them joined the CPC honorably during their college years, and they have been honored by the Party for 50 years.
In the 1990s, Wan Fengwei's mother and uncle grew up in the Second Village of Shida on Zaoyang Road. From a young age, they lived alongside scholars from East China Normal University such as Xu Zhongyu and Qian Gurong, and were deeply influenced both on and off campus, continuously influencing the next generation. In terms of professional selection, Uncle Wan Fengwei gave suggestions for applying to the Finance major at East China Normal University based on his years of experience working on Wall Street and understanding of the finance major, combined with Xiao Wan's own interests and aspirations.
"We are very excited and proud of Xiaowan. The economic and financial industry provides key support for economic growth, resource allocation, risk management, currency issuance and management, as well as international trade and investment." Uncle hopes that Xiaowan will inherit the family tradition and the spirit of the previous two generations of teachers, and firmly remember the school motto: seek truth and create, be a role model.
At the new student Xiao Wan's home, Dai Liyi said that the college entrance examination is an important milestone in life. As children grow up, they should establish lofty ideals and have a greater self than a smaller one in their hearts. "Congratulations and welcome to all the new students at East China Normal University this year, whether it's number 0001 or number 0002."
