Date:2015-02-03

On the night of Sept 25th, ICES held the welcoming party in the stadium of Donghua University. More than 300 international students gathered there to welcome new schoolmates and celebrate the beginning of new semester. All the students enjoyed the shining neon, exciting music and interesting games at the party.

The welcoming party started with street dance from six international students, and in no time heat up the whole stadium with the hit song, Gangnam Style. During the party, Mr. Gu Bohong, Dean of ICES, addressed a welcoming speech to all the students present. And then the most outstanding international student leaders of ISA were awarded for their great initiatives in the past semester. After that, all the ISA members performed a group dance, bringing the whole party to a climax.

Also, the party highlighted a variety of performances such as hula dance, guitar solo, rap and R&B songs and so on. Moreover, every one engaged in the funny games: couples took part in a running race where boys needed to pick up their girlfriends; boy students tried on girls’ high heels to run across a designed route; four groups of students finished a relay race while carrying table tennis balls in the spoons held in their mouths.

When the event came to an end, many students agreed that this welcoming party was really impressive and fascinating, where chances were provided for them to communicate with each other more intimately. Thanks to the guidance of the teachers and the efforts of the new and old ISA members, the welcoming party was launched successfully. By holding this party, all the ISA members were united as one and showed us their upgrading team spirit. Let’s expect their better performance in the new semester.
