Student Ambassadors Take the Lead...
"Closer Communication with New Students"

The Liberal Arts Department of Mokpo National University (President Song Hacheol) announced on the 10th that it held the "President, Please Answer" talk concert, a communication program for freshmen, twice (at 9 a.m. and 11 a.m.) at the Cheonggang Academia Hall in the 70th Anniversary Memorial Hall on the 8th.

This event was part of the mandatory freshman course "MNU Campus Life" and was attended by 1,278 freshmen. Unlike last year, student ambassadors from Mokpo National University hosted the event themselves, creating an opportunity for closer communication with the new students.

The talk concert was hosted by student ambassadors Yang Eunseo (3rd year in Education), Lee Seulbi (4th year in Food Engineering), and Cho Youngho (2nd year in Cultural Contents), with President Song Hacheol participating in a Q&A format. The students asked candid questions on a variety of topics such as academics, career paths, campus life, and personal values, and the president responded directly, fostering a sense of closeness and open communication with the students.

The questions reflected the students' genuine interests and concerns, including "I want to become a university president too?how can I achieve that?", "What was your school life like?", and "I want to start preparing for employment from my first year?how should I begin?"

In response, President Song introduced club activities, overseas independent study programs, and various career and entrepreneurship support programs, encouraging students to actively participate in university life.

In his closing remarks, President Song stated, "Mokpo National University provides not only an excellent faculty and systematic curriculum, but also campus welfare on par with the Seoul metropolitan area, including free shuttle buses, premium breakfasts for just 1,000 won, and comfortable libraries and dormitories. I hope all students will create an enjoyable and meaningful university life through active participation and a spirit of challenge."

A Mokpo National University representative said, "This talk concert was a meaningful occasion where the president and freshmen communicated openly and explored directions for growth together. We will continue to do our best to support student-centered educational innovation and growth."
