In April 22, 23th 2024, we organize our first graduate symposium! This process is never easy, but we were able to overcome the numerous challenges. We will never forget the contribution of Haiyi Li (PhD History), Qinglin Luan (PhD EALC), Luming Xu (PhD EALC), Xiaoyan Ren (PhD EALC), My-xuan Hillengas (MA EALC), Jinju Wu (PhD EALC), and Patrick Du (PhD EALC)! This is the beginning of our great adventure!
