2 . Voice of Campus Starts to Recruit New Members
Voice of Campus, serving as the one and only radio station of SWPU, aims to mix tedious language learning with various forms of entertainment, arouse wide concern for daily English practice, as well as offer a stage for the talented to display magnificent performances. Therefore, it has established a remarkable reputation since it was launched.
On September 11th and 12th, all staff of Voice of Campus were assigned to different dormitories to distribute leaflets, as a form of advertising.
For ultimate publicity, this advertising campaign aims to students overall. During the whole process, thorough introductions as well as detailed explanations were given out to assist the students to form a comprehensive impression of Voice of Campus.

However, with continuous encouragements, they finally made their boldest decisions.
Thanks to the joint efforts of the entire staff, a considerable number of students have entered themselves for the interview to join the radio station. However, various forms of difficulties and challenges may appear at any circumstances. Only with adequate and constant efforts can we contribute to the prosperity of Voice of campus to the fullest.
