First Nobel Prize winner to donate to Hope School

www.chinanews.cn 2007-05-10 10:13:57

Chinanews, Beijing, May 10 �C Professor Daniel Chee Tsui, academician of
US National Academy of Sciences and foreign academician of Chinese
Academy of Sciences, solemnly signed, in Princeton University, USA, his
own name in both Chinese and English in the agreement regarding donation
for constructing a Hope School in his hometown in China. This is the
first time for a Nobel Prize winner to donate toward a Hope School in
China.
Professor Daniel Chee Tsui was born in February, 1939, in Fanzhuang
Village, Baofeng County, Henan Province. In 1951, he went to study in a
middle school in Hong Kong. In 1957, he was admitted to the American
university. After graduation, he became a citizen of the United States.
He returned to his homeland four times for academic exchange but failed
to visit his ancestral home due to the pressure of time. In order to
repay the graciousness and the deep affection shown him by hometown
elders and to support hometown education, Daniel Chee Tsui decided to
contribute 350,000 yuan to establish a Hope Primary School in Fanzhuang
Village, together with a piano and some computers for the School.
Professor Daniel Chee Tsui's decision was warmly welcomed by the Baofeng
County government. They decided to set aside more than 8,500 square
meters of land in Fanzhuang to establish a central elementary school,
which will be named "Daniel Chee Tsui Hope School", with the professor��s
donated 350,000 yuan. The main building of this school will have a
capacity of 200 pupils.
A person concerned disclosed that construction of the "Daniel Chee Tsui
Hope School" will begin soon after the week-long May Day holiday and will
be put into use in autumn this year.
