This weekend was busy here. It was the Mid-Autumn Festival a kind if Thanksgiving China style (see http://www.chinavoc.com/festivals/Midautumn.htm), where people eat small pastries called mooncakes and visit family. The Freshman also came to campus, so it is much more crowded everywhere. Also the freshman have to go through military training for, I think, two weeks.
Their military training as far as I can tell consist mostly of a lot of marching and counting. I have also seen them sitting in groups during the evenings singing what sounds like campfire songs. I am not sure what is really accomplished by all of this, but it does seem like they get a aerobic workout and more cohesion as a school.
Here are a few photos. There are more to come.
