Pay attention to students with a high number of purchases and low average spending amounts
According to the news of Hunan University of Science and Technology, Hunan University of Science and Technology counts the big data of dining consumption of full-time students (including undergraduates, graduate students and international students) in the canteen according to the flow of the canteen cash register, and distributes meal subsidies to students who consume more times in the canteen and have a low average consumption amount per meal.
The meal supplement will be distributed in 4 times at the beginning and mid-term of the semester, each time about 25,100 yuan, and a total of <> million yuan will be distributed throughout the year, which will be directly charged into the student's meal card. For this practice of the school, netizens have praised and expressed support, calling it "someone else's school", and said that it was "warmed" by the school's behavior of quietly sending money to students to maintain their self-esteem.
Heartwarming Program
Throughout the winter vacation school, efforts are made to implement the plan
Liang Hongjun, director of the logistics management department of Hunan University of Science and Technology, told the Beiqing News reporter that since December 2022, the logistics office and relevant functional departments of the university have begun to discuss this heart-warming plan, and the school has also been working hard for the implementation of the plan throughout the winter vacation.
"We kept statistics on consumption during the holidays." Mr. Liang said that when he checked the statistics, he found that one student was in a very special situation, eating a dish at a fixed stall for each meal, and on average, only 11 yuan a day to eat. Liang Hongjun said that he went to the cafeteria to find out the situation with the aunt who was cooking. "My aunt told me that the boy's situation was the same as we counted, eating very little at each meal and consuming very low."
Liang Hongjun said that the boy's situation touched him and other teachers at the school very much, "Usually in the process of contacting students, I know that some classmates have difficult conditions at home, but he may be reluctant to tell teachers and classmates out of self-esteem or personal face problems, so we hope that through the canteen and this daily monitoring, they can get corresponding help." ”
Release time
More than 3,2000 students will receive subsidies by the end of March
After comprehensive consideration, the school finally determined the method chosen by the person who gave the meal allowance. First, the Logistics Management Office selects the 3000,200 students with the lowest average meal consumption from students whose dining rate is not lower than the average of the whole school, and the data source is the statistical analysis of the students who use the campus card and UnionPay at school. Then, the Office of Student Affairs will verify the identity of the shortlisted poor students, and if they belong to poor students, they will be distributed at <> yuan.
If it is not included in the ranks of poor students for the time being, students with low average meal consumption will also be distributed at the standard of 200 yuan per time. The remaining shortlisted students are sorted by gender in order of average meal consumption from lowest to highest, and are distributed according to the standard of 100 yuan per person.
Liang Hongjun told the Beiqing News reporter that they calculated that if the school breakfast only eats pastries, it will cost about 5 yuan, the Chinese meal will cost about 8 yuan, and the special meal will cost 10 yuan. "Like the boy who only spends an average of 11 yuan a day, the 100 yuan subsidy is enough for him for 9 days, and 200 yuan is enough for him for 18 days, although it is not much, but it can help him solve some difficulties." Liang Hongjun said.
It is reported that 2059,100 students of Hunan University of Science and Technology will receive subsidies of 200 yuan or 3 yuan this quarter, and the subsidies are expected to be paid by the end of March.
In addition, the Beiqing News reporter also learned that the statistical results of dining consumption data will be used as one of the bases for the assessment and adjustment of poor students. The school will also check the relevant information of the recipients of the meal subsidy from time to time through various means, and strive to distribute the meal subsidy to students whose families are truly poor. For students with special difficulties, the School Financial Assistance Office will provide targeted funding after verification.
