Senior party members and cadres are witnesses of the development and growth of the party, being the precious wealth of both the party and our country and the vivid teaching material of the study and education of the history of the party. Leaders of the university require party organizations at all levels to respect and care about them with emotion and the sense of responsibility, creating the atmosphere of respecting and caring about the senior party members and cadres. It is our duty to inherit the revolution gene and the honorable tradition and the fine style of work of older generations, remaining true the original aspiration and keeping in mind the mission, and to struggle untiringly to write a chapter of CCNU on building socialism with Chinese characteristics.
