I took the college entrance examination three times, pursued my dreams for 60 years, and graduated from college at the age of 438+0. Grandma Xueba became an "online celebrity".
On February 4th, at the first graduation ceremony of Modern Distance Education 20 18 in the College of Online Education of Tianjin University, Xue Minxiu, who spoke on behalf of the graduates, held the undergraduate diploma and became the focus of the audience. She fought for this moment for four years. She has been looking forward to this day for 6 1 year. I didn't give up three college entrance examinations. 8 1 year-old, finally realized the university dream of 2 1 year-old.

He completed two years of credits and got 65,438+000 points in every subject. He knows Latin, English, French and Russian, can take photos and retouch pictures, and likes cycling, swimming and track and field ... Xue Minxiu has refreshed many people's "learning concept" and set off an upsurge on the Internet. Many students praised her as "Grandma Xueba".

What kind of person is Grandma Xueba? What kind of stories has she experienced?

"Grandma's classmate" became an "internet celebrity" after graduation.

"This time, my college dream really came true." Tianjin in February, although it is early spring, is still chilly. Xue Minxiu, 865,438+0 years old, wrapped in clothes. Some excitedly said that compared with the previous advanced diploma and junior college degree, this time they got the undergraduate diploma. "Look, the certificate I got was issued by a famous university!"

On February 4th, it was dawn, and Xue Minxiu couldn't wait to get up. After a simple breakfast, he drove to Weijin Road Campus of Tianjin University. She has been looking forward to this day for too long. After entering the graduation ceremony of Modern Distance Education 20 18 in Tianjin University, she was a little flustered in the face of the sudden influx of "long guns and short guns".

As a graduate representative, at the age of 8 1, she came to the podium with applause: "I believe you have heard of me more or less. In fact, some people will think that an old man my age is more suitable to grow flowers and grass at home and spend his old age safely. But I don't want to live like this. I think the meaning of life lies in constantly challenging myself and perfecting myself, so I want to thank Tianjin University for giving me such an opportunity to turn my unfinished dream into reality. " During the two or three minutes' speech, the whole audience was silent.

Subsequently, Lei Ming, deputy secretary of the Party Committee of Tianjin University, solemnly handed the undergraduate diploma to Xue Minxiu and sent flowers. This diploma shows that the major is e-commerce and online education, and the signing time is 20 18 1.20.

Once this news was released, Xue Minxiu suddenly became an "online celebrity", which exploded the WeChat circle of friends. "Capital service! Awesome, grandma, you killed a lot of post-80 s and post-90 s. There is no end to learning, never too old to learn. " "After 90 s and 00 s, Xueba is a vulnerable group. Tianjin University, a 30-year-old' super schoolmaster', graduated! " "My 80-year-old grandmother completed her undergraduate studies at Tianjin University. Congratulations! This is our common example. What are you young people waiting for? "

Three college entrance examinations to make up for the pain in my heart.

"I like learning in my life. If I learn, I will gain something and I will be very happy. " Xue Min Xiu was born in Tianjin in February 19 1 1. From 65438 to 0954, he graduated from Harbin Health School (technical secondary school) of the Ministry of Railways, majoring in pharmacy. After graduation, he was assigned to work in Xi Lintong Sanatorium of the Ministry of Railways.

1957, she is 2 1 years old, and she is taking the college entrance examination for the first time. Good news came in August that year. She was admitted to the Biology Department of Northwest University as an undergraduate. However, just as she was happily reporting to the unit and planning to report to the university, the result was a head-on blow. The unit leader refused to release because of work needs. She had to give up in tears.

"I was admitted to the university, but I can't go. That kind of pain is difficult for ordinary people to understand. " She said that she still treasures this admission notice from Northwest University.

1958, she returned to Tianjin. The dream of college has come back to life. 1959, she got up the courage to take the national college entrance examination for the second time, but she was not admitted. It hit her hard, and she was depressed for a while.

In April, 20001year, the Ministry of Education relaxed the conditions for candidates to apply for the exam, and cancelled the restrictions on unmarried candidates and those under the age of 25.

"To be honest, I am so happy to hear this news, and it also brings me new hope." Xue Minxiu said that since then, the university dream buried in my heart has begun to recover. In fact, she was 65 years old that year.

During her study, she learned that China Central Radio and TV University has two enrollment modes: open education (entrance without examination) and adult education (entrance by examination). She participated in the open education mode, and after systematic study, she graduated from 20 13 and obtained the college degree of "e-commerce". In June of the same year, Xue Minxiu took the national college entrance examination for the third time. Unfortunately, his score was not ideal, only over 300 points, which did not reach the admission score of three books.

"Don't call grandma Xue, call classmate Xue Minxiu."

Xue Minxiu, who failed in the college entrance examination for the third time, continued to seek other learning methods. She learned that modern distance education, also known as online education, as a kind of adult education, is generally enrolled by colleges and universities independently, which is very suitable for her and gives Xue Minxiu confidence in continuing her studies.

Zhang Jun, Xue Minxiu's counselor, still remembers the scene when Xue Minxiu came to register. Spring is here, and a gray-haired grandmother walks in at the registration office of the online education college headquarters. According to past experience, they judged that grandma should register her busy grandchildren. But as soon as they spoke, "Grandma, you …" Xue Minxiu stopped them: "Please call me Xue Minxiu. I am here to sign up for study. " The staff present at the time were shocked.

"The average age of our students here is about 30, and she is 77. We were very surprised. " Zhang Jun said, but after learning her story, she felt very admired. There are 160 students in Xue Minxiu's e-commerce university class, and only she is over 60 years old.

Since then, in the online education college of Tianjin University, "Xue Minxiu" has become a "role model around". Zhang Jun recalled that she was obviously not the only one who admired Xue Minxiu. "Our homework is an online question bank with a large number of questions, but she basically got 100 points in every subject. Now many young people pursue' 60 points, long live. "

Zhang Jun said that e-commerce undergraduate courses are the same as other undergraduate courses, including not only basic courses such as advanced mathematics and English, but also specialized courses such as marketing and e-commerce. Students are required to complete 18 subjects including specialized courses, practical courses and theoretical courses within two and a half to four and a half years. Xue Minxiu not only kept up, but also made outstanding achievements.

"You are only in your thirties, why can't you stick to it? Look at Xue Minxiu's classmates ... ""If you review this course again, you can see that Xue Minxiu has passed ... "

Teach yourself Latin, English and French.

"I don't know Latin, which has brought me great trouble in my work and made me determined to study." 1In August, 954, Xue Minxiu became a pharmacist after graduating from the Health School. At that time, many medicines were imported, and the instructions were mostly in Latin, while she had only studied Russian before. In order to find out the composition and structure of each medicine, I began to teach myself Latin. Later, for various reasons, she was once transferred from her post.

When I 198 1 returned to my original post, 26 years passed. "The change is too big. I found that almost all the drug instructions in pharmacies were changed to English, so I couldn't see them. " From then on, Xue Minxiu decided to study English.

Once, she saw a French class in an old university and was very inspired. "English and French have something in common. I can understand English in French. " She taught herself French again. Plus the Russian I learned in the technical secondary school, I have learned four foreign languages now. She admits that she can only "speak" some of these four foreign languages, far from "speaking". "Every foreign language brings me different feelings and gains a lot."

"Xueba Grandma" has become a typical example of lifelong learning.

Regarding her future plans, she said that she would continue to study and acquire some knowledge, and would also like to participate in some public welfare activities. "When you grow up, you will find that the definition of success is changing. The most important thing is that you should have the courage to go on ... "

Li Zhenyu, head of the online education college of Tianjin University, said that Xue Minxiu has set a new record of being the oldest since July 2000 when Tianjin University became the first batch of 18 pilot universities in China to carry out modern distance education. "She has set an example of perseverance and perseverance for everyone and has become a symbol of lifelong learning".
