On the afternoon of May 7, 2026, the Cultural Exchange Salon for Chinese and International Students hosted by Beijing Normal University Business School (BNUBS) was successfully held in Room 9406, Jingshi Building. A total of 22 participants, including exchange students from Germany, France, Belgium, Russia and other countries as well as undergraduate students of our School, gathered at the event, which was filled with a relaxed and lively atmosphere.

The salon aimed to build an open and friendly communication platform for Chinese and international students. It helped international exchange students better adapt to campus life, while enabling domestic students to learn about overseas universities and polish their cross-cultural communication skills.

The event consisted of group drawing by lot, student sharing, interactive games and free discussion. Exchange student representatives from various countries introduced the features of their home universities and national cultures, while Chinese student representatives shared their study and life experiences at Beijing Normal University. In the game of Pictionary, mixed teams of Chinese and international students brought plenty of laughter and quickly drew everyone closer. During the free discussion session, participants talked freely about campus life, hobbies and other topics, and forged new friendships.

The warm and pleasant atmosphere won high praise from all attendees. Many students expressed the hope that the School would organize more such activities to further enhance communication and mutual understanding between Chinese and international students.

This salon has not only deepened mutual acquaintance among students from different countries, but also injected new vitality into the development of an international campus atmosphere at BNUBS.
