  "It's been a long time, my home!" On August 23, pushing the suitcase and going through the steps of disinfection, code scanning, temperature measurement, registration and other steps into the campus, Wuhan University student You Wenjie couldn't hide his excitement. Since the winter vacation in mid-January, You Wenjie has been away from campus for more than 7 months.

  After returning to school, You Wenjie did not take other epidemic prevention measures except wearing a mask. "All the people in Wuhan have undergone a nucleic acid test, which is very safe." You Wenjie said frankly that he was not worried about safety. He is about to be a junior, and he hopes to hurry up on school time for internships and preparation for graduate students.

  Wuhan has 89 colleges and universities, with more than one million college students. Wuhan opened its arms and welcomed the return of college students in the fall semester. At present, Wuhan University, Huazhong University of Science and Technology, Zhongnan University of Economics and Law, South-Central University for Nationalities, Wuhan Institute of Engineering and Technology and other universities have announced the opening time and schedule.

  According to the principle of staggered peaks and batches, from August 22 to September 11, Wuhan University students returned to school in four batches, and foreign students were not allowed to return to school without notice. The first batch of undergraduates who returned to school on the 22nd and 23rd were some undergraduates from the school. They will start offline courses on the 24th to learn about the missing knowledge points in the online course.

  Ding Ruyi, 20, is studying at the School of Life Sciences of Wuhan University. "I've been looking forward to the start of school." Ding Ruyi told reporters that biotechnology is a practical course. Although there are virtual experimental courses during the online course, there is still a discrepancy with practice. After the semester starts, the offline experiment will be used to check for missing vacancies.

  Ms. Xiao Dongzhen from Nanjing, Jiangsu, sent her daughter to report. Because parents were unable to enter the school due to epidemic control, she waited at the door. "Last year (mood) was a novelty, and this year I am grateful and moved." She said that the people of Wuhan made great sacrifices to fight the epidemic. Now the city is back to normal and the children are sent to school, she is relieved.

  Facing the epidemic prevention and control challenges such as the large cross-regional mobility of the population and the high-density gathering of people after the school starts, Wuhan University will implement closed management of campuses and dormitories. If not necessary, large-scale indoor gathering activities will not be organized. Clean and disinfect the surfaces of high-frequency contact objects in public areas to ensure the safety of students.

  "Welcome home, please scan the code first!" At the gate of the 7th dormitory of the Faculty of Engineering of Wuhan University, Zhang Bin, the housekeeper, warmly welcomed the students back. Zhang Bin revealed that the school disinfected and ventilated the dormitory in advance, and provided hand sanitizer in the public bathroom. After semester begins, students scan codes and measure temperature to enter and exit the dormitory. The public areas of the dormitory will be eliminated twice a day.

  At 12 noon, the Xingyuan Canteen of the Medical Department of Wuhan University was filled with students. The reporter saw that the entrance and exit of the dining hall were separated, and there was a special person waiting at the entrance to assist students in scanning codes and measuring temperature. After the meal, the students went out through another door.

  In the corner of the canteen, a set of dishwasher equipment is eye-catching. The conveyor belt of the dishwasher is about 10 meters long, and the students put the dishes on the conveyor belt. According to Luo Zhenhua, manager of the canteen, the dishwasher equipment replaces the traditional artificial table, which can improve work efficiency and avoid staying and gathering.

  Luo Zhenhua revealed that after a round of disinfection in the dishwasher, the dishes and chopsticks will enter the hot-air disinfection cabinet and be disinfected at a high temperature of 110°C for half an hour; the cafeteria staff enter the sales stall and need to blow in the air shower for 5 minutes. Disinfect and remove dust to ensure hygiene and safety.

  "The canteen's epidemic prevention and disinfection work is done well, so don't worry." For the first meal back to school, student Liu Wan ordered a rock sugar Sydney and a tomato and egg soup.

  All of Liu Wan's roommates are back, and everyone has an appointment to open a bottle of peach blossom stuffing to celebrate the special opening of school under the epidemic. (Finish)
