我们為魏明光伉儷善行喝采
来自台湾母校政治大学之消息, 一九六九年度新闻系毕业的魏明光校友将於下週在木栅本部面见校长李蔡彦, 举行[政大魏明光卓越发展基金会] 签约仪式 , 捐赠毕生稹蓄美金一千万元, 相当於台币三亿二千万元, 来鼓励学子向学, 并比照哥伦比亚大学普立兹奬模式 在母校设立「新闻传播讲座」及「𠍇出新闻传播奖」。
魏明光伉儷在美东地区成功地创建了中餐连锁店 ,早年负笈密苏里大学深造, 在他人生的版图上未能成為新闻人而成功地变成企业及慈善家。
身為政大校友 ,我们对於魏学长之善举充满了尊敬和感激,这不止是政大人之光, 也更是华裔美人对社会之表率。
今天在美国许多华亚裔族群都有极优异之成就, 但是能够捐献上千万善款者真是凤毛鳞角 ,何况一千万美元是魏明光伉儷之终身财富。
我们早年没有上新闻系 ,到了美国确一生从事新闻传媒, 今年初在李校长之加持下在德州休斯敦成立了北美政大校友联合会, 并希望今后為母校成立校友基金会, 追随魏学长之脚步, 為母校及学弟妹共同尽力。
魏学长 ,请接受我们的祝福,我们為您感到骄傲。
We Applaud Brother Wei Mingkwang For His Good Deeds
Ming kwang Wei who graduated from Taiwan Chiengchi University Department of Journalism in 1969 donated $10 million U.S. dollars to setup a foundation and a news awards program.
Mr Wei came to America and studied journalism at the University of Missouri, but he never got into the news business. Instead, he founded a very successful restaurant chain and has been philanthropist almost all of his life.
As Asain alumnus of Chengchi University, we fully respect and are very grateful for the kindness of Senior Wei. This is not the only the light from our university, but also an example of our Asian community in America.
Today many Asian ethnic groups in the United States have reached excellent levels achievement, but those who want to donate tens of millions of dollars are very rare.
In the early year of my college life, we didn’t study journalism and spent our whole life in the media business.
Earlier this year, with the support from President Li, we establish the Chengchi University Alumni Association Federation in Houston, Texas. Our goal in setting up the foundation is to help our alma mater graduates and their younger siblings.
Today we learned that Brother Wei has already put our plan into action. We are very proud of you.
