Graduation Speech from Dean Lu

Good morning to the U.S.; good afternoon to Europe; and good evening to China. I appreciate your presences at this hard time. It is my great pleasure to witness your glory day online for the first time. This academic year has been extremely challenging and difficult for all of us, yet I am very glad that you all have successfully completed the program.

It supposed to be a normal semester in Lingnan, where you finished two-week classes, and ready for your Spring Festival holiday to explore cities and cultures in China. Then everything changed overnight. As we have already known, the pandemic attacked the whole world. In consideration of your health and safety, three schools decided to replace the rest semesters in China and Spain with online courses. Your study and even your life changed along with the outbreak of coronavirus.

Despite all the unexpected challenges, you still demonstrated great perseverance, adaptability, and resilience that a future business leader should have. All these remarkable qualities reflect when you insist on participating in group discussions crossing three time zones; they shine when you continue absorbing new knowledge from intensive courses for months; they particularly stand out when you manage global crisis corporately as a team. What you have demonstrated during this academic year are impressive. I am proud to say that every one of you have made a spectacular achievement.

I appreciate the joint efforts of both our students and collaborative faculty and staff. Together, we marked these days of uncertainty and complexity by acts of creativity and dedication. I have no doubts that the entrepreneur spirit has been deeply planted in your heart, and it will only grow stronger as your future spreads out from here. This year is a special year, and every piece of contribution that you have made will become a unique part of our program history. Graduates, after a hard-working year, now it is time for you to celebrate your accomplishment and success.

Thank you!
