(Clearwisdom.net) Mr. Luo Xiang graduated with a Ph.D. from the Institute of Theology in the Philosophy Department of Beijing University. He has been rejected several times from employment because he practices Falun Dafa. In 1998, Mr. Luo Xiang was sent to Rissho University in Japan because of his excellent GPA, but he returned to China due to physical illness. His doctor recommended that he practice Falun Dafa, and because of his practice, he recovered quickly after an operation. In 1999, Luo Xiang was a deputy member of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). Because he practices Falun Dafa, he gave up his membership at the end of 1999. Beijing University recorded his reason for giving up his CCP membership in his political file (1).
In February 2001, Luo Xiang was arrested from his dorm and taken to the Haidian District Police Station around midnight, and sentenced to 18 months in a labor camp. Upon his release, he returned to Beijing University to continue his studies. He finished his 100,000 word Ph.D. dissertation within one year, and received an excellent grade. A Professor at Wuhan University wrote to him and wanted him to be his post-doctorate student. Mr. Luo applied, and his interview score ranked the highest among all candidates.
In August 2001, while preparing to move to Wuhan City, the University notified him that they could not accept him because he practices Falun Dafa.
In 2004, Mr. Luo Xiang had an interview with Hunan Normal University, which was very excited about employing him, and arranged his classes for the following semester. Later, they found out he practices Falun Dafa and rejected him. An administrator at Wanzhou University told him that no school dares to employ someone associated with Falun Gong in their political file. If he could have those documents purged from his file, he would be more than willing to employ him as an instructor at Wenzhou University.
Mr. Luo Xiang has already submitted a letter to the Beijing University Administration Office, hoping to have his political file purged, but has not received any response from them.
(1) In China, everyone has a political file, which will follow him from place to place. If one graduated from a college, his employer would request the school to mail them his file, and he would mail the file to the next employer.
