On Saturday, October 18th, 2014, the NYU Shanghai Student Government held its inaugural Student Government Summit at the Pudong campus. All members of NYU Shanghai’s Student Government and 25 delegates from 8 prestigious universities in Shanghai were present. Chancellor Yu Lizhong and Associate Vice Chancellor Liu Hongxia attended the summit, expressing their welcome to the student delegates.
During the summit, delegates demonstrated their student government structures and showed representative events of their schools. NYU Shanghai club leaders and student organization leaders attended the Town Hall/Networking session of the summit and participated in conversation with the delegates.
The NYU Shanghai Student Government Summit (SGS) is a cross-university event that aims to promote communication among Chinese universities. It serves as a platform which enhances mutual understanding among student governments as well as different student bodies. It also facilitates cross-university cooperation between clubs/student organizations, encouraging students to participate in events held in other universities.
NYU Shanghai’s Student Government plans to hold more summits in the future and will invite more universities both in and outside of Shanghai, to attend the summit.
