Hats off its graduation time for 7 million

June is graduation season for nearly 7 million Chinese graduates. It’s a time to say goodbye to their schools, teachers and friends. But it is also a formal occasion with a ceremony filled with joy, nostalgia, high expectations as well as confusion and anxiety for the future.

Graduation is one of the most important ceremonies for every college student which marks the moment when they will finally receive an academic degree after years of hard study, and bid farewell to their school, teachers and friends.

Job

Job hunting is the most frequent and distressing topic for college graduates. The harsh reality engendered by China's economic slowdown has exerted huge pressure on graduates and resulted in a low rate of job satisfaction.

Friends 

University is not only a place to achieve professional knowledge and skills, but also a place where students will harvest friendships for life.

She and He

In addition to knowledge, skills and friendship, some also found time to find their true love during the past four years. After graduation, some will go on to wedding but others have to be part from each other for various reasons.

Dorm

The cramped dormitory of China's universities is usually a single room shared by four to eight students. Although simple and crude, the dormitory offers them a warm home during their time in school.

Luggage

No matter when school started or it is time to leave, luggage is always as heavy as the student's heart.

Dream

Students started their university life four years ago full of dreams and four years later, they will leave with dreams to work, to contribute and to be a good person.

Graduation is not the end but just the start from which the graduates will embark on a new journey in their life.

They will take on more responsibility and make more contributions to their families, society and their country.
