The Voice of CCNU Climbing high on the Double Ninth Festival expects a long life. In order to carry forward the traditional Chinese virtue of respecting and loving the elderly and feel the charm of traditional Chinese festivals, on October 22, the College of Sociology used the evening roll call time to carry out the thematic educational activities of "Respecting the elderly and loving the Elderly". Under the advocacy of counselors and teachers, students conveyed blessings in words, expressed gratitude with actions, and brought warmth to their relatives and the elderly in the community through colorful forms, creating a strong cultural atmosphere of filial piety and respect for the elderly.


Under the leadership of instructor Qi Jinxiang, the 2023 undergraduates carried out activities with the theme of "Cornel Chrysanthemum Fragrance, the Double Ninth Day" to help students understand the background of the Double Ninth Festival and related customs, and experience the warmth and love brought by the Double Ninth Festival.



Grade 2022 introduced the theme education with the poem "Thinking of My Brothers in Shandong on the Double Ninth Festival" by Wang Wei, a famous Tang Dynasty poet, inviting students to read the poem, appreciate the poem, and feel the love and memory of the Double Ninth Festival.



Grade 2020 introduced this thematic educational activity with three public service short films. Teacher Wang Mingxin, the instructor, advocated that students should contact their families frequently, take the initiative to care for the elderly at home, and make more calls and send messages in their spare time.



Under the initiative of instructor Guo Jingxiao, the students of Grade 2021 sent the most sincere and warm wishes to the elderly at home in combination with their actual situation: send a warm message, make a blessing phone call, accompany the family to eat a meal, travel with the family and so on. The lovely symbols of words and warm group photos not only expressed the care and yearning for the elderly, but also inherited the traditional Chinese virtues with practical actions.




In order to jointly create a good campus atmosphere of respecting the elderly, the School of Sociology vigorously carries out activities of respecting the elderly, loving the elderly and helping the elderly. On October 20, the Youth Volunteer Association of the College gave play to the professional expertise of sociology and social work and organized students to carry out heart-warming activities in Jianghan Shumei Elderly Home. The students shared the power of warmth by explaining classic operas to the elderly, doing handmade creativity, and talking about old events. The room is full of laughter, this moment they are each other's listeners, but also the transmission of the story.




Celebrate the Double Ninth Festival every year, live one year after another. It is reported that the School of Sociology will continue grasping the pulse of society, increase the social temperature, give full play to professional advantages, and better send care and help for the elderly, and devote themselves to the inheritance and development of the traditional virtues of the Chinese nation with their youth.
