as the new name <strong>of</strong> the rebuilt building. In the ceremony, Ms. Chen Xiaping lighted<br />

the crystal lamp together with Pr<strong>of</strong>. Min Weifang and Pr<strong>of</strong>. Xu Zhihong for the <strong>PKU</strong><br />

and her family have strong senses <strong>of</strong> social responsibility to contribute to the<br />

development <strong>of</strong> the education. To prove this, the Chen family has donated twice to<br />
