Expressing suffering was a method of ideological and political education used in the CPC’s (the Communist Party of P. R. China) army during the wartime. As time goes by, this kind of education method has been away from the public eyes. However, revaluing the education method in the peace time has a profound significance. The education of expressing suffering can be applied into the ideological and political education for undergraduates, which is necessary and feasible. The education of expressing suffering emphasizes on the form and contents, and highlights the consciousness of adversity and responsibility, which plays an important role in helping undergraduates to establish core values of society and the sense of responsibility.
