On June 24, Prof. Fang Yu spoke about the charms and powers of the chemistry discipline, to would-be college students who had finished their college entrance exams, on the special program “Academicians Talking About Majors” in 2022 higher institution admission season.

“It is fortunate for a person to encounter a good teacher, it is a pride of a school to have good teachers, and it is the hope of a nation for it to have generations of good teachers.” Fang said on the program. A sacred profession with honor and duty, teaching requires a teacher to have ideals and beliefs, to be morally sound, to be knowledgeable and have a loving heart. He also hoped the students would learn chemistry, which is a creative power and an art of matter, and become creative talents.

The program, in which eleven CAS academicians speak about issues of interest to college entrance examinees, is sponsored by the China Youth newspaper, China Association for Professional Certification of Engineering Education, and Education Quality Assessment Center of Ministry of Education with the support of nine national associations and ten universities, and was aired on June 21.
