They should sow the seeds of truth, goodness, and beauty in students' hearts, and guide them to buckle the first button in life. The glorious tradition and excellent work style formed and promoted by our party during the Yan’an period, as well as the Yan’an spirit, which is mainly composed of a firm and correct political direction, an ideological line of emancipating the mind and seeking truth from facts, a fundamental purpose of serving the people wholeheartedly, and an entrepreneurial spirit of self-reliance and hard struggle, are precious spiritual assets of the party and must be inherited.
