亲爱的老师们、同学们、同事们、朋友们：

时光流转，新年的钟声再次敲响。我们谨代表清华大学苏世民书院，向大家致以诚挚的新年祝福。

2024年，我们迎来第九届来自42个国家的同学们。在各界人士的支持下，学生们有机会在更广阔的平台探索中国、拓展国际视野。今年，书院首次组织多达九个Deep Dive支队在全国各地开展社会调查。学生们第一次有机会自己主导实践调研。这些尝试都进一步实践了“体验式学习”的培养理念。

随着第八届学者的加入，书院校友群体现已超过1000名分布在全球90余个国家和地区，建立了19个苏世民书院校友枢纽城市。校友们活跃在全球事务、商业、教育、公共政策、科技创新等多个领域，持续发挥苏世民书院在国际交流方面的重要作用。

新篇章将启，我们也对即将到来的第十届学者满怀期待。展望2025年，我们将继续秉承“立足中国，面向世界”的宗旨，与大家携手同行，迎接未来的挑战，共赴新征程。

最后，再次感谢大家对清华大学苏世民书院的关心与支持。祝愿大家在新的一年里幸福安康！

Dear faculty, students, colleagues, and friends:

As time goes on, the chimes of a new year ring once again. On behalf of the Schwarzman College, we want to extend our warmest New Year wishes to all of you.

In 2024, we welcomed the 9th cohort from 42 countries. With everyone's support, students had the opportunity to explore China on a broader platform and expand their international perspectives. The college organized nine teams for the Deep Dive, conducting social surveys across the country. For the first time, students took the lead in designing and conducting their own mini-Deep Dives, advancing our commitment to experiential learning in meaningful ways.

Our alumni network continues to flourish, with the addition of the 8th cohort bringing the total to over 1,000 alumni across more than 90 countries and regions. With 19 city-based alumni hubs worldwide, our graduates excel in diverse fields such as global affairs, business, education, public policy, and technological innovation, making significant contributions to international collaboration and exchange.

As we turn the page to a new chapter, we eagerly anticipate the arrival of the 10th cohort. Looking ahead to 2025, we remain committed to our mission of "Rooted in China and Embracing the World," as we work together to rise to future challenges and stride confidently into a new era of growth and opportunity.

Finally, we once again express our gratitude for your unwavering support of Schwarzman College. May the new year bring you happiness, health, and prosperity!
