<strong>Peking</strong> <strong>University</strong>, Feb 25th, 2004: On the morning <strong>of</strong> Feb.25, the volunteer teachers<br />

who worked in the schools <strong>of</strong> Midwest depressed areas in the past 6 years gathered<br />

to hold a discussion meeting.<br />

The volunteers selected from <strong>PKU</strong> graduate students first went to the depressed<br />

areas in 1999. Hitherto 71 <strong>PKU</strong> students have taught in the mid-west provinces<br />

including Tibet, Qinghai, Shanxi, Henan and made their efforts to local education.<br />

One <strong>of</strong> the first group volunteers Chen Yingwu has been a teacher <strong>of</strong> <strong>PKU</strong> now. He<br />

looked back on his one-year teaching life and remained <strong>of</strong> the importance <strong>of</strong> respect,<br />

lenience and persistence.<br />

Shi Shanfeng who volunteered to teach in Tibet realized that, college students<br />

should keep on learning and improve their managing and communicating skills. He<br />

also suggested that <strong>PKU</strong> students should make some research on local economic<br />

and educational development besides their teaching task.<br />

Yi Li, who is teaching in Tibet this year said, the volunteers in Midwest now had been<br />

accustomed to the environment in spite <strong>of</strong> the bad climate. He believed that they<br />

would made greater contribution to local education and development in the left year.<br />
