The flag-raising ceremony for Fudan's 116th anniversary was held on Handan campus today.
As the national anthem rang at 7 o 'clock sharp, the National Flag Guard escorted the national flag into the venue.
Poetry recitation and chorus presented by Fudan students and faculty staff led us to look back on history and look forward to the future.
