Theme: Unplug 洄游

The drastic progress of technological innovations in contemporary society caused revolutionary change in communication and accelerated people's living pace. Everyday, we work 8 hours or even more time on our jobs, purchase delivery for meals and watch short videos or go shopping on smartphones for relax. This is the life that we are living, but is this the live that we want to live? Unplug is the process of thinking. Its form can be differentiated. I would like to invite people to share their own stories about how they get lost and find themselves again through their own unplug process.

Mary Gu

Activist, student

I am Mary Gu, a student from Nanjing Crosspoint. I used to be an introverted girl, but since stepping into high school; the whole English-speaking policy and school activities stimulate my potential and courage to speak out. I have gained tremendous passion for learning literature. Also, I become more dauntless in sharing my own opinions with others as well as organizing activities. Last year, I have become one of the directors of the drama performance Romeo and Juliet. I am an editor of the school magazine and also published several articles on school WeChat account with more than 3,000 view. Through those processes, I was so paralyzed with the experience of teaching and guiding my peers. Genuinely, I wish I can have more chance to speak in the public for self-expression.

Formerly an Assistant Professor in the Honors College at the University of Houston and a Visiting Professor at Cornell University, Dr. DiMattei’s interests revolve around the importance of Humanities education.
