Send students out of campus with a notice? College students from other provinces under the epidemic are too difficult!
"No need to return home", "No need to stay at school", "No need to stay at school", "No need to leave school"... Is it a "tongue twister"?
No, this is a dazzling "fancy holiday order" for winter vacation in colleges and universities across the country as the situation of epidemic prevention and control changes.
Whether to return home for the New Year has become a trouble for many college students.
Some college students even fall into the embarrassment of "want to go back, can't go back" and "want to stay and can't stay."
Interviewed experts pointed out that under the shadow of the epidemic, college holiday arrangements should not be mandatory and one-size-fits-all “commanded” leave or stay. Instead, high-level management service measures should be used to allow students with practical difficulties to make their own choices.

The student is helpless: I don't want me at school or at home?
"It's too difficult for college students from other provinces. The school asks for'unnecessary not to stay in school', and the home government advocates'unnecessary not to return home'. The school and home don't want me?" A student from a university in central China talked to reporters a few days ago. Own distress.
The Banyuetan reporter learned that "non-essentially not staying at school" is a holiday measure taken by many universities in low- and medium-risk areas.
For example, a "double first-class" university issued a winter vacation notice on January 14, clarifying that students will be on vacation in batches before January 20, and students without exam assignments will leave the school immediately.
During the winter vacation, in principle, you are not required to stay at school, and you are not allowed to return to school without receiving notice after leaving school.
"Doesn’t the country encourage everyone to celebrate the New Year on the spot this year? Why did the school announce that it is not necessary to stay in school?" A college student said, "If I return to my hometown, I need to observe and isolate for 14 days and stay at home for two weeks after isolation. Going back to school again may be quarantined again. The whole winter vacation is basically spent in quarantine. How significant is it to return home for the holidays?"
"I will graduate next semester. If I go home during the Spring Festival, I am worried that the epidemic situation will worsen and my return to school will be indefinitely, which will affect my job search next semester. After discussing with my family, I still feel that it is safer to stay in school. My hometown is in low-risk areas, and I think "not staying in school unless necessary" and asked me to return home." said a junior.
The Banyuetan reporter learned that according to the notice issued by some colleges and universities recently, it is required that “students are not allowed to stay in school during the winter vacation in principle. If they really need to stay in school due to special circumstances, they must strictly follow the procedures for approval.” The approval process is-tutor application , Department review, postgraduate management office approval, epidemic prevention office filing...
"The student’s approval process requires tutors to apply. They cannot be initiated by the students themselves. The criteria for tutors are difficult to define. For example, some tutors require students to stay on campus during winter vacation, even if the school and hometown are in low-risk areas. It will be understood as'it is necessary to stay in school'; while other tutors who have lighter tasks and are unwilling to manage students during winter vacation, even if the students have various concerns and worries when they go home, the tutor will think that'there is no need to stay in school'."

The school has difficulties: the first choice is for students to leave school as much as possible
"Require students to leave school as much as possible, which is conducive to school management. It means that the school will assume less risk and responsibility for epidemic prevention." Some senior university teachers, university administrators and counselors mentioned the general mentality of the school. "Students stay in school every day. The prevention and control measures, the identification of whereabouts, temperature measurement and observation are inevitable and will definitely increase the workload of some faculty and staff."
The reporter interviewed by Ban Yue Tan learned that although some colleges and universities allow some students in special circumstances to stay on campus after approval, they implement a very strict management system.
For example, all campuses, academic departments, and second-level teaching units are required to designate special personnel to be responsible for the safety, management, and epidemic prevention and control of the students who stay in school. The students who stay in school shall implement relatively concentrated accommodation, and the logistics department must properly prepare the food, Guarantee services such as accommodation and warmth.
There are also some disadvantages in doing so.
The most obvious of these is that these schools are located in low-risk areas, where no community blockade has been implemented, and the “strict control” of students staying at the school is incompatible with the surrounding environment.
But some schools think there are difficulties in doing so.
"Although everyone has experience in epidemic prevention and control last year, the development situation of the epidemic this year is still unclear. It is better to keep students in school. It is better to implement closed management for insurance purposes, but it is easy to arouse students' disgust; Increasing hidden dangers, once a problem occurs, the school will not be able to bear the responsibilities and consequences." Several college counselors said.
"With this arrangement, we did not consider the problem from the perspective of students. Some students, such as students from Hebei or Heilongjiang, can neither stay on campus nor go home. There are also some students with special needs who blindly ask them to leave school. In a dilemma." said a doctoral tutor in colleges and universities, "Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and other cities that absorb a large number of migrant workers encourage migrant workers to celebrate the New Year locally. If the parents of migrant workers do not go home, but students are not allowed to stay in school, Who do the students go to spend the New Year with? Do they stay behind for their parents?"

Lazy politics is not advisable
Can't send students out of campus without a notice
"'Unnecessary not to stay in school' should not be one size fits all, because students are faced with many practical situations. Schools should fully investigate and clarify the classification, have different guidance for different student groups, and cannot forcefully require all students to stay because of their own interests. It is forbidden to go out or stay in the school, and must not turn the promotion of student leaving the school into a lazy behavior of playing football." said Li Bin, a professor of sociology at Central South University.
Li Shu, deputy dean of the National Institute of Innovation and Development of Tongji University, pointed out that the national policy for epidemic prevention and control is very clear, which is to divide into low, medium, and high-risk areas and implement regional prevention and control.
College students are already adults and have the right to choose and act freely.
Colleges and universities should be concerned about the practical and difficult needs of students who do not want to return to their hometowns, and make proper arrangements through management measures.
Li Bin and others believe that for some key groups, such as students in high-risk areas, students from poor families, and students in need of employment or make-up classes, colleges and universities should consider the necessity and urgency of staying in school.
"Schools should fully understand the real difficulties and ideas of students, and provide students with autonomy on the premise that they are fully informed of the risks and consequences, and students obey the discipline of staying in school, instead of sending students out of the campus by sending a notice."
There are also suggestions from college teachers that, regardless of whether students choose to stay or leave, local governments should also assist colleges and universities in responding, such as issuing clear placement rules and procedures.
To solve the problem of leaving and staying in schools during winter vacation, multiple measures are needed: enabling students with conditions to have a way to go home for the New Year, allowing students who stay in school to receive reasonable arrangements and care from the school, and local and social forces provide support and support to schools and students. assistance.
Some college teachers suggested that, for students staying on campus, colleges and universities should do a good job in the prevention and control of campus epidemics, such as disinfecting public places such as canteens, dormitories, and classrooms, establishing a health monitoring system of "civil defense + technical defense", and strict students' health Monitoring, travel itinerary registration and check-in, etc., build a safe line of defense; for schools that have already experienced an epidemic, they should be closed for isolation management, nucleic acid and body temperature should be monitored, and students and parents should also be guided and comforted.
The Banyuetan reporter noticed that some colleges and universities have noticed the call of some students to stay in school and have begun to take some more reasonable measures.
Some universities respect the wishes of the students and communicate with the parents of students who live in the high-risk area of the epidemic and are willing to seek refuge with relatives and friends. For those who are willing to stay in school, the school will arrange one-to-one contact with teachers, formulate holiday assistance and condolences work plan, and provide comprehensive care and assistance from ideological, psychological and economic aspects.
Some universities advance the final exam and arrange for students to leave school in batches.
For students who live in high-risk areas of the epidemic, go through the formalities and stay on campus in accordance with regulations. Relevant departments and colleges of the school will make arrangements for winter vacation and provide meals, water and electricity, internet, and medical protection.
The school arranges special funds to provide financial aid and assistance to the students who are in financial difficulties, and will organize the students to carry out some small cultural and sports activities according to the students' interests and hobbies to enrich the students' winter vacation life.
Many college teachers believe that in winter vacation arrangements, relevant school administrators should have more empathy and empathy in order to better reflect the campus governance ability of epidemic prevention and service.
