On November 2, 2017, SDUT’s Party Committee Theory Learning Center Group held a collective learning session focusing on the revision of the new CPC Constitution. LYU Chuanyi, Secretary of SDUT’s Party Committee, presided over the seminar and delivered a speech. Leaders of the school, including ZHANG Tiezhu, YI Yuchen, HU Xingyu, LIU Guohua, ZHANG Xiangyun, WANG Libin, WEI Xiuting, YI Weiming and ZHANG Jinsheng attended the seminar and other members of the SDUT Party School Theory Learning Center Group and heads of other relevant departments joined the study, too.
At the seminar, Dr. WANG Zailiang, from School of Marxism, gave a lecture entitled Amendment of the Constitution of the Communist Party of China and Its Significance. He had analyzed the revised parts of the general program and the clauses of the Party Constitution from eight aspects, explaining the main contents of adjustment, enrichment and improvement of the CPC Constitution, and expounding the great significance of the amendment.
In his speech, LYU Chuanyi pointed out that it was CPC’s fine traditions and rules to revise the Party Constitution according to the development of the situation and the requirements of its mandate. The newly revised CPC Constitution embodies the achievements the party had made in its theoretical innovation, practical innovation and system innovation since the 18th CPC National Congress. It had definitely made clear the requirements of strengthening Party’s leadership and self-governance in every aspect, which would set fundamental standards for the building of the Party and help to advance the causes of the Party.
LYU Chuanyi said that this revision of the Party Constitution had a wide range of 107 places, of which 58 were in the General Program and 49 are provisions in the article, which fully embodied the party's ideological character of keeping pace with the times, the latest achievements of the sinicization of Marxism, and the successful experience during party working and building.
LYU Chuanyi emphasized that the study and implementation of the spirit of the 19th CPC National Congress was the primary political task for the University from then on, and the study and implementation of new Party Constitution should be viewed as an important part of advancing “Two Studies; One Action” (to study the CPC's constitution and rules, to learn the important speeches of President Xi, and become competent party members) as well as learning normalization and institutionalization. It was necessary to guide party members to conscientiously respect the new Party Constitution, practice the requirements of the new Party Constitution and promote the one spirit and one planning of the University.
