To spend a meaningful college time, the following four tips would help:
First, saluting to the future with independence. After bidding farewell to your hometown, you should learn to try new things with courage for endless possibilities in the future.
Second, pursuing real freedom with self-discipline. As the university is full of freedom and diversity, you need to make plans for your study and life, instead of being lost with nothing to do.
Third, enriching the meaning of life with responsibilities. In the new era, you should take the responsibility of national development with passion and courage.
Fourth, meeting the challenges with a broad horizon. You, standing at a brand-new and higher point of life, should grasp the general trend of the country to see a bigger world.
I hope that you will live up to the expectations and become an excellent TJUer.
