Season's greeting from USTC Alumni Foundation (provided by Dongzi Liu)

Dear Alumni:

Seasons greetings from the Governing Board of the
USTC Alumni Foundation. As the year draws to a close,
may you find time to reflect on our common link?--
cherished memories, special moments, and proud
accomplishments of the good old days back in USTC.
May you know the joy of being with friends and
families, sharing traditions and inspiring new ones.

Please allow us to fast forward to the future in
your family gathering, your grand kid pops up THE
question -- "which college did you go, Grandpa/ma?"
-- We hope you can look him/her straight in the eye
and answer with a confident smile -- "I went to THE
BEST university in China!".

That's what USTC Alumni Foundation is all about.
