On January 7th, a 6.8-magnitude earthquake struck Dingri County, Shigatse City, Tibet, causing heavy casualties and affecting people's hearts. Dalian University of Technology, Dalian Maritime University, Dalian University for Nationalities, Dalian Medical University, Dalian University of Technology and many other universities in the United States pay close attention to the situation of students in the disaster-stricken areas, and quickly start the work of arranging the disaster situation of students' families and providing special funding to provide care and assistance to students.

"The school pays close attention to the situation in the disaster-stricken areas and always cares about every student. Now, it has started the investigation and special funding of students' earthquake-stricken situation. If some students have temporary financial difficulties in their study and life at school due to the earthquake disaster, they can directly contact the student service center through the counselor and their college/college to apply for temporary care subsidy from the school. "Dalian University of Technology issued an emergency notice of temporary subsidy application two hours after the earthquake, and immediately checked all full-time students in one school, two places and three districts one by one. Through the information of student origin, regional matching of ID code and home address, 19 students living in Shigatse were confirmed, and the first round of temporary subsidy from 1000 yuan was given to each student on the morning of January 8th. Because it is in the period of financial closure at the end of the year, Dalian University of Technology has opened up a temporary distribution channel to ensure that subsidies can be credited to students' personal accounts in time.

A funded student of Dalian University of Technology said that he was full of worries about his relatives and hometown after a sudden earthquake in Shigatse, his hometown. The care of the school carries deep love. It not only relieves the economic pressure, but also makes him feel that the school is as warm as home in a foreign land. "I will definitely turn this gratitude into motivation, study hard, and contribute to my hometown construction and social development in the future."

It is reported that after the first round of subsidies, Dalian University of Technology will further provide classified subsidies according to the disaster impact of students' families at the end of the application for earthquake subsidies on January 10th.

Difficulties do not fight, and the telephone number of funding is constantly on line. Dalian Maritime University, Dalian University of Technology and other universities announced the funding hotline of the student affairs department (department) in the notice. The relevant person in charge of Dalian Maritime University said that the school always cares about students' study and life, and continues to accept all kinds of applications for temporary hardship subsidies throughout the year. In case of sudden changes that lead to family financial difficulties, you can contact the school at any time. At the same time, the school continues to open a 24-hour student financial aid hotline during the winter vacation. In case of special difficulties, you can give feedback and consult at any time.
