尊敬的各级领导、口腔医院全体师生员工、离退休老同志、各兄弟单位同仁、社会各界朋友：

满载收获的2008年渐渐远去，充满希望的2009年信步向我们走来。值此辞旧迎新之际，我谨代表广西医科大学口腔医学院党政领导班子向一年来在学院各个岗位上辛勤耕耘的广大教职员工，向刻苦求学、锐意进取的莘莘学子，向关心和支持口腔医学院建设与发展的上级领导、离退休老同志、广大校友和各界朋友致以最诚挚的问候和最衷心的感谢！

过去的2008年是不平凡的一年， 是我院建设发展成绩斐然的一年。在全院师生员工的共同努力下，学院各项事业快速发展，呈现出了蓬勃向上的良好局面。一年来，全院上下齐心协力、同心同德，有效地开展迎接教育部本科教学工作水平评估的各项准备工作，顺利通过了教育部本科教学工作水平评估，并以此为契机，加强教学改革和教学管理；教学、科研成果显著，我院口腔医学专业获国家教育部、财政部批准成为第三批高等学校特色专业建设点；对外交流工作取得新的突破，由我院承办的首届中国-东盟国际口腔医学交流与合作论坛取得圆满成功，与东盟各国建立起了友好合作关系；广西医科大学东盟国际口腔医学院获自治区发展与改革委员会批复同意立项建设，绘就了一幅口腔医学院腾飞的宏伟蓝图。

2008年，我院还迎来了三十周年院庆。在全院教职员工的共同努力下，在各级领导、广大校友、社会各界人士、海内外朋友的热情关怀和大力支持下，庆典活动取得了圆满成功。这次庆典活动不仅是一次回顾办院历史、展示改革与发展成果的隆重庆典，更是一次凝聚友谊与激情的盛会。

回首过去，学院发展历程中的每一次闪光总令我们欢欣和鼓舞；展望未来，宏伟的目标和历史的重托令我们深感任重道远。即将到来的2009年，是充满希望与憧憬的一年，也是迎接挑战和加快发展的关键一年。我院将以科学发展观指引全院事业发展，坚定不移地走特色发展之路，紧抓机遇，再接再历，与时俱进，脚踏实地，开拓进取，努力实现我院办学规模、结构、质量、效益的协调发展，将学院各项事业不断推向前进！

    最后，衷心祝愿大家在新的一年里平安健康，工作顺利，阖家幸福，万事如意！
