Obligatory Freshmen Military Training for the 2008-2009 School Year begins at Taizhou Teachers College.
For all Chinese college and university freshmen, the beginning of their new school year begins with mandatory military training, lasting some 2-3 weeks. The commander of the PLA regulars at TTC, who train our new students, was happy to pose with me, and explained much of the process. I must thank him for his time and efforts.
