Teachers' Remarks II｜LI Biao: Our students should dare to dream and to act
Our students should dare to dream and to act. They can explore new things they have never tried before. Once they have their own ideas and innovative abilities, they can put them into practice. — LI Biao
Music and art have a profound impact on the human soul. Musicians and artists are the guardians and engineers of this profound realm. For young students who aspire to enter the realm of music, the heartfelt voices and wise sayings of mentors are their "lighthouses" in their exploration. It's a fortune for students to have good teachers, and it's a glory for the school to have a group of masters. The School of Music, CUHK-Shenzhen boasts an abundance of music masters, and we harness their leadership and enlightening roles by implementing the significant and far-reaching "Art Lighthouse Project". The "Teachers' Remarks II" interview series is now officially launched building on the success of the previous column.
Sometimes, bold ideas just popped into our minds. However, the fear of failure often holds us back, making us hesitant to move forward. It's only when we challenge ourselves to try new things and delve into unexplored territories that we can truly discover our potential and explore brand new versions of ourselves. By transforming our thoughts into practice and converting theories, concepts, and plans into tangible actions, we're fueled by a positive spirit that drives us to continuously seek growth and progress. Whether in academics, artistic creation, or social practices, we will approach the unknown with full confidence and determination.
