The First Postgraduates' Union Members and our Guests
On the meeting Dean Lin Chang gave a precise interpretation about the positioning and future development of the Graduate Students Association of Evidence Science(GSAES). As he points out, firstly, the GSAES should be closely focused on the idea of "doing real things", be united and down to earth,to carry forward the pragmatic and rigorous working style, to become a student organization that really serves our students; secondly, the GSAES should create a good working atmosphere, inspire the collective sense of honor of the members and give them the sense of belonging, to earnestly solve our students' problems; thirdly, the GSAES should formulate a way to update its members so that it can be long-lasting and developing though member changes. Besides, to establish a new regulation is also very urgent, only if activities of the GSAES became institutionalized and standardized can we lay a good foundation for later members.

Deputy-secretary of the CUPL Communist Youth League Lu Sun furtherly emphasizes: firstly, the Union should deal with the problem of PHD students participating and undertaking student works. As we all know, in holding major forums, PHD students should play an essential part, but the reality is that many PHD students only care about their own affairs, lack of passion for such activities and missed opportunities to excise. How to encourage the PHD students to join in and make good use of them should be the matter the GSAES need to focus on in the future; secondly, the GSAES should fully combine the characters of the first class and the second class, provide the students with an academic platform using the second class, form the academy' s own characteristic and create a new feature of CUPL. Sun also points out that the biggest difference between a Graduate Students Association and a Students Association is Graduate Students Association should also try to make an effective combination of doing academic research and dealing with student activities. These ideas are vitally important suggestions for the GSAES on their future work.
