Chinese President Hu Jintao has expressed satisfaction with graduate students from Peking University who volunteered to teach in the western regions.
Hu wrote back to 18 volunteers on May 10, after he received a letter from the students who are now teaching in west China' s Tibet, Qinghai, Yunnan and Xinjiang.
Peking University has been sending graduate students to teach in rural areas since 1999, and has so far dispatched 12 groups with 163 members. Each student spent one year during the mission, and the service hours of all the volunteers has totalled 350,000.
"Despite hardships and with wholehearted devotion, you have played a positive role in boosting education in the western regions, and you have gained experiences, strengthened mind and improved abilities through grassroots practice," Hu said. "I am very satisfied with the progress you have made."
Peking University sending students to rural areas is an effective way to help young students learn from practice and the masses, Hu said.
He hoped the university would continue the practice, so that more young student would grow up to become the backbone of the country.
Hu's letter aroused heated discussion among the volunteers and staff and students of the university.
"It is a big surprise and a great honor," said Zhang Zhendong, one of the 18 volunteer graduates who wrote to President Hu on April 9 to report their work as volunteer teachers. "We had not expected a personal letter from President Hu."
"We realize the value of our work and feel the responsibility after reading the letter from Hu," the student who is teaching in Qinghai said.
Wang Yuechuan, a professor with Peking University, said that President Hu clung great expectation over the Chinese younger generation in his letter.
Peking University President Zhou Qifeng said the university would follow Hu's instructions to organize the volunteer teaching service in a better way.
The next group of volunteers from the university, with 17 members, would begin their mission in two months, according to officials from the university.

President's letter to volunteers sparks passionate discussion about volunteerism
A letter from Chinese President Hu Jintao to volunteers who are teaching in rural areas has sparked passionate discussion among the country's college students and faculty.
In a letter dated May 10, the president spoke highly of work done by 18 graduate students from Peking University, saying that their volunteer project is an effective way to help young students learn from practice.
Hu said he hopes the university will continue the practice and encourage more young students to volunteer in the future.
Chinese college students and teachers saw the President's letter as a sign of attention and expectation from China's leadership, and also as a sign of support for student volunteers who serve in China's underdeveloped western regions.
Feng Pengfei, a student from Zhengzhou University, said the letter from President Hu made him more determined to take part in a volunteer teaching program.
"I will try to deal with hardships and contribute to the development of the west, just as President Hu said in the letter," Feng said.
Qing Zheng, a student from Beijing Normal University who will be participating in a volunteer teaching project in Xinjiang, said "Many children in the west do not get a good education. As the new generation of college students, we have a responsibility to serve the country in the places where we are needed most."
Those who choose to serve in places where they are most needed should be praised as examples for others, said Zhang Jiaming, an official from the School of Information Engineering of the Wuhan University of Technology.
Zhang said the school will follow President Hu's instructions to facilitate the creation of more volunteer opportunities for its students.
Volunteerism can not only enhance college students' abilities, but also foster a sense of responsibility among them, said Jiang Yuxin, a Communist Youth League official from Shaanxi Normal University.
University students should carry forward a tradition of volunteerism and go to small towns and villages, bringing their talents to the places where they are truly needed, Jiang said.
Qian Xuhong, president of the East China University of Science and Technology, said the university will also follow President Hu's instructions and work hard to cultivate more volunteers.
In a notice to educational authorities and institutions across the country, the Ministry of Education reiterated the importance of educating through real-life experience and called for more efforts to improve students' volunteering habits.
