Zhang Guangjun, President of Southeast University and Dean of Chien-shiung Wu College, met with the delegation; in addition, over 100 people including Managing Vice President Wang Baoping, principals of relevant departments, teacher and student representatives from Chien-shiung Wu College attended the meeting.

During the talks, in response to the students' active questions, Samuel Ting answered a series of questions, e.g. “The Beauty of Physics”, “Exploration of the Universe” and how to manage the team of scientists and the growth of life, etc.. In recalling the deep friendship with Ms. Chien-shiung Wu, a distinguished alumna of Southeast University, Samuel Ting expressed his great reverence and appreciation for her precise and cautious scientific attitude. He said: “Ms. Chien-shiung is my elder. She arrived at U. S. at approximately the same time as my parents. She conducted a lot of experiments, several experiments of which were to prove the previous experiments carried out by others were wrong. She was very careful and strict; therefore, I have established a good relationship with her”. In the end, Samuel Ting eagerly encouraged students from Chien-shiung Wu College to do the most important thing as they believe and not feel regretful when old since we all only have one life after all. Others’ suggestions would not be the most important and we should take responsibility for ourselves.
