This exhibition is the first activity held by the new Modern Art Center. It provided a platform for students to appreciate humanities and arts, shows the rich cultural life of USTC, and embodies cooperation between humanities elective courses and student clubs. In the future, the USTC Youth League Committee will strengthen its cooperation with the School of Humanities and Social Sciences. Under the 2+X education in the central campus, the new model of improving students’ humanities literacy will be continuously explored. And the student organizations will be better able to play an important role in general education and humanistic literacy.
