No opening ceremony, all funds donated to flood relief, a university receives "shower" of compliments

On the morning of September 13, the University of Social Sciences and Humanities announced on its fanpage that it would not hold an opening ceremony to use all funds to support people in the North.

The school said it had made careful preparations for the opening ceremony of the 2024-2025 school year on September 27. However, in recent days, storms and floods have caused serious damage in the northern region. In this urgent situation, the school feels that sharing and supporting the community is more necessary at this time.

Associate Professor - Dr. Ngo Thi Phuong Lan, Principal of the University of Social Sciences and Humanities, said that the budget for organizing the opening ceremony is 100 million VND. The entire amount will be transferred by the school to the Central Committee of the Vietnam Fatherland Front to support people in the northern provinces, helping to overcome the consequences of natural disasters.

The announcement said that the opening ceremony is a very important occasion, especially for new students. However, the school hopes that all students can sympathize and show the spirit of mutual love at this time.

Less than 1 hour after the announcement, the school's fanpage received a "shower" of compliments from students, parents and the online community.

The school's beautiful actions received "a shower" of compliments.

Quynh Nhu commented: "I feel happy because I chose the right school to study, proud to be a "person under the roof of a humanistic school". Because of the storm and flood, there have been so many losses, this is truly a great pain for our people. Thank you school for making great contributions to help ethnic people".

Duy Cuong shared that his daughter is studying at the school. When he read the announcement, he felt very warm and happy. "A humane action, true to the name of the school. Our family wholeheartedly supports it."

Currently, the University of Social Sciences and Humanities is also launching and calling on staff, workers and students to continue contributing to support the people of the North.
