He said that the "Industry Huangpu" of Highway College not only has a long history and tradition, but also shoulders the glorious mission of pursuing excellence and striving for first-class. Actively understanding the development history of the college and experiencing the unique cultural connotation is a sufficient prerequisite for students to integrate and achieve Chang ’an University, and build a strong transportation country. Looking back on the development process, there are highway people in every major project, and many teachers and alumni have made outstanding contributions to the development of the national transportation industry.
In the context of the new era of building a powerful socialist transportation country, Dean Chen has three ardent expectations for new students.

Break through traditional thinking, overcome path constraints and thinking inertia, think independently, surpass authority, and pursue excellence; The third is to uphold integrity and abide by academic ethics, admire the truth, respect the rules, and guard the bottom line of academic conscience with the noble character of seeking truth and pragmatism.

Why do we choose Highway College? What is the difference between undergraduate study and graduate study?" , which provided them with a cordial guidance for the future study and life. Zhang pointed out that students should undertake missions and responsibilities on the way to pursue for knowledge, and never forget their original aspirations; learn to persevere and struggle, overcome difficulties, and pursue excellence on the road of growth; on the road of struggle, persist in dedication and cooperation, forge ahead, and grow together.
Senior class representative Yang Fengyi expressed her sincere welcome and heartfelt wishes to the new students. I hope that the new students will clarify their development direction and career aspirations, maintain a thirst for knowledge, an open-minded learning attitude, a rigorous academic spirit and the courage to be the first. The freshman representative, Ling Xianwu, issued a call to all freshmen of the 2021 grade of the college: guided by Xi Jinping’s thoughts on socialism with Chinese characteristics in the new era, join hands to climb the peak, take the public as the world and the road toward the far side as the goal and assume the responsibility of the times.

The opening ceremony is the first baptism for the freshmen of our school to enter the College of Highway of Chang'an University. From this moment on, the freshmen of 2021 will be connected with the college. The young students will take over the handover of history as highway people.
