     The Most Reverend Peter Liu preached a sermon and anticipated that as Wenzao is a Catholic school, President Chou would spread the seeds of faith and truth, so that abundant crops could be harvested. Based on belief and prayer, as well as following God’s guidance, truth is found in daily life, the call of God may be heard and peace achieved among the Trinitas and us.

     In the presidential handover ceremony, Chairperson Yang explained the process of the selection and expected that President Chou will conform to the humanistic tradition of the Ursuline education and lead the School accordingly. He also showed gratitude to Acting President Tsai for his efficient management and accomplishments in regard to the MOE evaluation.

     President Chou vowed to be fully responsible for school matters and collaborate with all faculty, staff and students with the help of God, as well as the supervision of the Board of Trustees. Students of Wenzao will love to devote themselves to communities and society with the attitude described in the School Motto: “Revere the Divine, Love the Human”. She appreciated the opportunity given by the School, which also changed her life. She stressed that she will be subservient to the Serviam of St. Angela with a full heart based on God’s will. Like a piazza, she will be open to everyone and tolerant to all events.

     President Chou listened to reports from each office after the inauguration. She is impressed by the responsible attitude of all faculty and staff. She said Wenzao University is currently achieving nearly 90 points, and that her mission is to lead the School to achieve a grade of 100. While this is a difficult challenge, she will try her best. The competition is keen, but fortunately by the grace of God, the School can accomplish the assignment. With Wenzao as a big family, all of us will be more passionate, happier, study harder, become better educated and devote ourselves to society; it will be a place full of honor, patience and love.

     President Chou is a Catholic and has been a member of the Board of Trustees of Wenzao since May 3, 2007.
