　　Respected faculty and dear students

　　Good morning

　　I am Liu Chang from class 1702. Today, I am so flattered to stand here on the stage on behalf of all junior students to deliver the speech to the freshmen.

　　First of all, please allow me to extend my sincere welcome to the class who have finally been admitted to NWAFU（Northwest Agriculture&Forestry University）. Your arrival has brought new vitality and infuse new vigor to the whole college and “3+1” program.

　　In addition to further accumulation of knowledge, the meaning of a university also emphasizes on  having the students face their life alone, conquer the difficulties by themselves, and become  competent solitarily. Back in 2017, the first time I stepped into this sprawling campus, a kind of complex feeling hit me suddenly. It is confusion with curiosity, fear with excitement. Just like all fellows sitting in the audience, there was a time that I could not find the way to the food college correctly, a time that I put off the assignments until the last minute of the deadline. I once was overwhelmed by frustration due to the failure I experienced, definitely, Crying because of missing parents has also become a part of my normal life. However, life is a piece of music not only with disappointment or sorrow, but also with the passionate sections as long as we allocate our powers to hard work and dedication. I still cannot forget the joy in the air when the poster exhibition was successfully held in my class, nor can I forget the ecstasy when all my roommates passed the IELTS test. These vivid memories and colorful moments are like vintage wine, which would become more sweet as well as fragrant with time going by.

　　Looking at your innocent faces, I couldn't help imagining what a wonderful life you would have in the university. You will show your extraordinary ability in the student union and get satisfaction and maturity after planning large-scale events. Additionally, you will embrace the joy of learning when doing self-study in the library or in Building 8; In the laboratory, during the process of  instruments operation and data recording, the truth of seriousness and rigorous would finally be understood .You will also establish your own life path by listening to the prominent experts sharing their experiences in the conferences. Nevertheless, my dear friends, when you enjoy the broad stage the school offered us, please do not forget, the reason why we have such good resources to fully release ourselves and pursue our dreams, why we can receive guidance from two different education systems during our undergraduate study, is that we rely on NWAFU, we rely on UNL and the 3+1 program.

　　Besides the inheritance of honesty and bravery, we also have the chance to experience Dedicated to letters and all the arts. In the class, despite Chinese teachers’ devotion, the capacity of division of labor would also be enhanced under the American methods such as presentations and group work. During the four years in the international class, the high-quality resources of the two schools can be utilized, the high scientific research experimental platform is accessible , international horizon can be broaden; and the education for comprehensive quality can be received .When you drink water from a well, don't forget the well digger. After you have made your own space, please remember that the international class, the “3+1” program is where the dream begins.

　　One cannot put back the clock, Class of 2024, you are about to start a new journey. Instead of keeping your head hung, please bend all the sinews to the direction you have chosen. One more mountain is waiting for you to conquer, and one more fantastic adventure is waiting for you to experience. Please consider deeply of how to approach your time in the next four years.I hope that when recalling your college days ,there is no regrets.

　　thank you

　　

2017级学生代表刘畅发言

　　

　　尊敬的各位领导，老师，亲爱的同学们

　　大家上午好

　　我是国际1702班的刘畅，今天很荣幸能够站在这里作为国际班的老生代表进行发言。

　　首先，请允许我向寒窗苦读十二载，终于金榜题名入西农的2019级同学们表示最诚挚的祝贺！你们的到来，为食品学院，为整个国际班都带来了全新的活力与朝气，热血与青春。

　　大学之所以为大学，除了知识的进一步积累，更有自己一人开始独立面对生活对人生百味的感悟与体验。记得2年前初入西农校园的我，也如你们一样，内心虽有迷惑与懵懂，但也不乏好奇与激动。我也曾在硕大的校园里找不到来食品学院的路，也曾在交作业前一天拼死拼活地赶完，有过失意的迷茫，更有过因为思念家人而崩溃大哭的日子。但生活并非只有低谷，高亢激昂的乐章也会因为自己的努力与拼搏来到我们身边。

　　我忘不了班级里成功举办完poster展而弥漫的喜悦之情，也忘不了宿舍在全部通过雅思考试时的激动呐喊。忘不了科创小组成员在经历无数通宵后做出来的方案终被老师认可的欣慰，更忘不了在15级国际班毕业典礼上，学长学姐身上所散发出的从容的欣喜。美好的回忆犹如陈酿的老酒，只会随着时间的流逝而愈加甜美。

　　看着台下你们的一张张虽有稚气，却又不乏坚毅的脸旁，我不禁幻想你们会在西农度过一段怎样美妙的日子。你们会在学生会里将自己的能力充分施展，在策划完一次又一次大型活动后收获成长与满足；会在图书馆或8教自习时拥抱学习的快乐；会在实验室里不断的操作仪器，记录数据，懂得认真，严谨的意义；也会因为在一次次报告会中聆听优秀前辈分享经验从而确立属于自己的人生道路。

　　学校提供的舞台丰富多彩，英语角的开设为想加强口语实力的同学提供了机会；三下乡，回访母校等社会实践培养了同学们脚踏实地，身系家国的态度与精神；而科创比赛与互联网+的年年举办，则是激发了同学们对于创新创业的无限兴趣与灵感。但同学们，请你们不要忘记，鱼跃，是因为海阔；鸟飞，是因为天高。我们之所以有这样好的条件去充分释放自己，追逐自己的梦想，之所以可以在本科阶段就接受来自中国与美国2种不尽相同的教育体系的指导，是因为我们背靠西农，背靠林肯，背靠3+1项目国际班。

　　除了“诚朴勇毅”精神的传承，我们还可以领会到Dedicated to letters and all the arts的内涵；在课堂上能够拥有中方老师的教书育人，诲人不倦，也能在一次次presentation与小组作业的美式方法中培养合作，分工的能力。能够领略到西农四季之美，也能在第四年感受到异国的热情与魅力。在国际班的四年，是能够享受两校优质资源的四年，是能够接触到高科研实验平台的四年，是能够拓宽国际化视野的四年，是能够接受到综合素质人才培养教育的四年。

　　饮水不忘挖井人，大家在闯出自己的一片天地后，请不要忘记，国际班，是梦开始的地方。15级的学长学姐虽已离开学校，奔赴世界各地开始研究生生活，但不管是在昆士兰，瓦赫宁根，还是在北卡罗来纳，康奈尔，他们都不会忘记，身为一个西农学子，一个林肯学子的与有荣焉。

　　昨天已成回忆，明天还需努力。19级的同学们，你们即将开始全新的征程。请把握今天，展望明天，一座又一座更险峻的山峰正等待着你们去征服，一次又一次更奇幻的旅程等待你们去经历。盛年不再来，一日难再晨。愿各位同学日后回想起大学时光，只有不舍，没有遗憾，只有怀念，没有辜负。

　　谢谢！
