on May 31st, the Liu Lin Gymnasium at Southwestern University of Finance and Economics (SWUFE) was brilliantly illuminated, alive with song and dance. The "A Century of Dedication, A Future of Brilliance" artistic gala, celebrating SWUFE's 100th anniversary, was held in grand style.
The gala integrated historical narrative, contemporary responsibility, and artistic innovation. It was structured into five chapters—"Grand Opening," "Taking Root," "Forging Ahead," "Chasing Dreams," and "Soaring"—featuring 18 programs that together chronicled the university's century-long journey, intertwined with the destiny of the nation and progress of the times.
Every performance was created and staged by SWUFE's own faculty, students, and alumni. Over 1,000 cast and crew members used their songs and dances to paint a vivid portrait of the century-old institution's history.
The gala was broadcast live globally, co-hosted by alumni and current faculty and students. More than 200,000 people watched online and offline, sharing in the joy of Southwestern University of Finance and Economics' centennial celebration.
