，國際處於2026年9月23日在雙溪、城中兩校區舉辦共慶中秋吃月餅活動，邀請境外學位生、短期交流生、華語生及國際處志工等一起感受臺灣的中秋節氛圍。今年特別準備了芋頭麻糬與紅豆蛋黃酥兩種口味，共計450顆月餅，在境外同學們熱情響應下全數發送完畢！

對許多境外學生而言，這也是第一次在臺灣品嚐月餅。活動現場還出現不少有趣的小插曲，日本同學拿到月餅後，練習用台語開心地說「厚呷！」；幾位法國同學則表示過去從未吃過月餅，現場品嚐後紛紛表示「芋頭最好吃！」從第一次嘗試月餅，到學著用台語分享「好吃」的感受，小小一顆月餅，也成為認識臺灣文化最直接又有趣的方式。

中秋節象徵團圓，透過這次簡單又溫馨的節慶活動，國際處希望讓來自不同國家與地區的同學，在東吳求學期間不只體驗校園生活，也能親身感受臺灣的節慶文化。看到同學們開心地品嚐月餅、分享不同口味的感想，也讓這場文化體驗多了一份交流的樂趣。祝福大家中秋節快樂，也希望每位境外同學都能在東吳留下甜甜又難忘的臺灣回憶！

With the Mid-Autumn Festival just around the corner, Soochow University’s International & Cross-Strait Academic Exchange Office organized a Mid-Autumn Festival mooncake giveaway on September 23, 2026, at both the Waishuanghsi and Downtown campuses. International degree-seeking students, exchange students, Chinese language students, and student volunteers were invited to join in the festivities and learn more about Mid-Autumn Festival traditions. A total of 450 mooncakes in two flavors—taro mochi and red bean with salted egg yolk—were distributed to the students.

For many international students, it was their first time trying mooncakes . After tasting the mooncake they got, a Japanese student happily practiced saying “Ho-Jia!” (“Delicious!”) in Taiwanese, while several French students agreed that the taro flavor was their favorite! These fun moments turned a simple mooncake giveaway into a memorable cultural experience.

Through this event, we hope our international students enjoyed a taste of Taiwanese culture and experienced the spirit of togetherness that the Mid-Autumn Festival represents.
