From July 29th to 31st, the second Falun Dafa College Study Camp was held at National Chiao Tung University. More than 120 college students, including some graduate students, attended this three-day event. The participants learned about Falun Dafa through a variety of programs, including lectures, movies, outdoor concert, plays and games. By the time the camp concluded, all participants felt that they had learned a lot.

Lectures
During the camp, besides playing Master Li's Dalian lectures and teaching the five sets of exercises, the organisers invited several practitioners to share their experiences with Falun Dafa. These practitioners have different expertise, and their lectures were very rewarding and were well-received by the students.
The organisers arranged a variety of activities to help the students learn the principles from different aspects.
The participants of the camp were divided into groups, and they were asked to participate in a talent show on the third day based on what they learned from the camp. On Friday evening, practitioners presented an outdoor concert for the camp participants.
The students commented that living according to the principles of "Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance" can bring peace and happiness, and they sensed the beauty and power of Falun Dafa. They also said that they now know the standard to be good people is very high and they would discipline themselves to look inward.
"Falun Dafa is Good"
Many students said that the biggest thing they learned was how to get along with others, and that people should contribute to society selflessly. Having become more self-aware, they also said that they would discipline themselves according to the principles of "Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance" and strive to return their true selves.
In the afternoon of the last day, all students shared their experiences at the camp. One student said that he regretted having wasted so much time: He got in touch with Falun Dafa when he was just a six grader; however, he didn't cultivate diligently. Upon seeing others' selfless contribution during the camp, he was so touched and decided to cultivate Falun Dafa more diligently. Another student said that these three days were the best of his summer vacation. Some commented that the concert was super. A student said that he had little interest in Falun Dafa before and he now is fascinated by the beauty of the practice.
Epilogue
The second Falun Dafa College Study Camp has successfully concluded. The seeds of compassion are now sprouting and many young lives have awakened to the universal principles. However, countless students in Mainland China are still being misled by the Chinese Communist Party's hate-propaganda against Falun Dafa.
Nonetheless, practitioners are determined to make every effort to let Mainland Chinese, including those young students, learn the truth. As "evil can never triumph over justice," the persecution will be brought to an end. Recently, we have seen more and more courageous people stepping forward to expose the facts of the persecution. We are sure that "Falun Dafa Study Camps" will one day be held on the Mainland so that more Chinese will have the same opportunity to see the beauty of Falun Dafa and thus sincerely say, "Falun Dafa is Good!" once again.
