The delegation was met by Sias Deputy Party Secretary, Li Huafeng, Vice President, Xu Shengdao, and the heads of the Party Committee Office, Academic Affairs Office, Scientific Research Office, and the United Front Work Department. The delegation was taken on a campus tour of Sias' European Street, Italian Square, German Street, Spanish Square, London Street, Student Activity Center, Mingli Residential College, CUBA Training Facility, Golf Driving Range, Chinese Garden, Huanyu Residential College, and Library.

After the campus tour, the delegation attended an exchange symposium on the 10th floor of the Library. Li Huafeng welcomed the delegation from the Zhengzhou Railway Vocational & Technical College on behalf of Sias and said that he hoped that the two universities would carry out exchanges to increase their work experience and strengthen cooperation for the progress of both institutions.

Xie Qian spoke about the Zhengzhou Railway Vocational & Technical College and said that he hoped that they would learn from the experience of Sias University with regard to the running of an educational institution, education, teaching, system reform, student management, and residential college system, so as to promote the reform and development of their own college.

Xu Shengdao spoke about Sias' residential college system, expanding on the idea of a dual academy system - with academic schools and residential colleges. He said that it had helped with student training, multiple tutors, collaborative education, the building of grassroots Communist Party and Communist Youth League organizations, and the unique educational philosophy of Sias through its academic curriculum.

The two sides carried out in-depth discussions and exchanges on the reform and development of the residential college system and its role in the process of education.
