In the golden autumn of September, the fragrance of osmanthus fills the air, as the start of the semester coincides with the Mid-Autumn Festival. On September 20, the Smart City Service Industry College thoughtfully planned a giveaway activity of 'the first cup of milk tea of autumn + exclusive mooncakes,' delivering an autumn surprise that combined sweetness and warmth to all faculty and students, and bringing the warmth of feeling 'remembered' to every teacher and student.

The event site was filled with warmth. On the long tables were neatly arranged mooncakes and college-exclusive milk tea printed with the college's logo. Teachers had earlier carefully arranged the mooncakes into the characters for 'Mid-Autumn,' hiding campus sentiment in the details with ingenuity. As the distribution began, the dean and counselor teachers personally handed cups of milk tea and sweet mooncakes to the faculty and students. The students' faces lit up with surprised smiles the moment they received the gifts, and the scene was filled with the aroma of milk tea and cheerful laughter.

Receiving such an exclusive benefit was a completely unexpected surprise; the unfamiliarity and anxiety of the new semester were quietly diluted by this taste of sweetness, and the students genuinely felt the home-like warmth and care of the college. Students of the Class of 2024 also remarked that this autumn-exclusive benefit, covering three grades both new and old, gave everyone a full sense of ritual amid their busy studies, and became a particularly vivid and warm memory of the new semester.

Unlike conventional holiday condolences, this activity turned the small wish of 'the first cup of milk tea of autumn' that faculty and students had been longing for into reality. The light sweetness of a cup of milk tea and the soft glutinousness of a mooncake convey far more than the taste of the food itself—they embody the college's sincerity in always keeping the small wishes of its faculty and students close to its heart.

In recent years, the Smart City Service Industry College has consistently adhered to a student-centered approach, integrating care into every detail of campus life—from routine academic support to festival-exclusive heartwarming surprises—so that through tangible and visible warm measures, every faculty member and student can truly feel a sense of belonging of being 'seen and remembered.' This autumn, beginning with this cup of milk tea and this sweet mooncake, all faculty and students will carry this warmth forward, walk side by side in the coming semester, hold fast to their passion, and press onward without slackening, jointly reaping their own growth and surprises on the track of youth.
