I saw summer in my circle of friends. He is also an alumnus of Beiyu, and now he is my student. Looking at the answer, I remembered many times when I was at my alma mater. I think this question should be written in at least two sentences.

If you ask me if I have any regrets or regrets in choosing the northern language, I must tell the truth, yes, and more than once.

For example, in the summer vacation after the college entrance examination, my relatives and friends asked me how many points I scored in the exam, and I could proudly report a beautiful score of the top three in the city. The next question, "Which university to go to", was always a little discouraged when I said the words "Northern Language", and the people who listened always praised me politely-"Foreign Studies University! Very good! " .

For example, in some social occasions outside the campus during college, the status of "Northern Language" is obviously not as good as that of "National People's Congress" and "Northern Foreign Language".

For example, when applying abroad, there is no such aura as 2 1 1 and 985, and the isolated schools in northern languages are always a bit lonely.

Sometimes I wonder if I am young and ignorant, but I feel that I have only filled in the almost unimpeded achievements of this school except Qingbei. I should listen to more people who have experienced it.

If these words are for people who want to come to this school in the future, I still have to tell the truth. I need to tell these future juniors that, whether at home or abroad, the names of northern languages are really not as good as 2 1 1 and 985, and they are really not as good as other A-level schools with lower scores.

But if you ask me what is the most correct decision I have made in these years, I must also tell the truth. Spending four years as an undergraduate in Beijing is one of the most correct choices I have ever made.

I didn't expect it when I was studying in Beijing. Later, when I entered the society and met all kinds of people, I didn't realize how correct and lucky this decision was until I bid farewell to my status as a newcomer in the workplace and met fresh graduates or interns from various schools in the interview.

To put it simply, the most different thing is that the words and deeds of the northern language have taught her students a kind of value-not to be influenced by other people's opinions or affirmations, to live in their own ideal way and to respect other people's lifestyles.

I won't elaborate on the specific learning experience, only the most important words.

I think the first thing that Northern Language taught me was an international perspective. Few students from northern languages think that going abroad is a big deal. In our eyes, the world has no boundaries. Whether culturally or geographically, we can freely integrate in any environment. When there are no cultural or geographical restrictions, we will have a more open and inclusive perspective.

Yes, and then there is tolerance. Northern language is a very tolerant environment, and it is tolerant and respectful to anyone and any way of life. It's also true that many people joke. There are many gay boys in the northern language. I think this also reflects the tolerance of northern language to mainstream groups and minority groups. Anyone, any orientation, any way of life, can be yourself freely in the northern language, and no one will think you are strange and not hidden.

It is precisely because of this environment, with schools that don't take grades and employment as pressure, that we can really enjoy the four-year process of college, really think about some less utilitarian problems and find the way we really want to go. I think this is the most valuable place.

When I study abroad later, when I move forward step by step in the workplace, when I face some crossroads that need to be chosen, I often feel that four years of undergraduate life has subtly given me a broad vision and let me try and experience with an open mind. Under such a vision, I also have the ability to understand what I want beyond the universal values. More importantly, my alma mater gave me the most important gift to live honestly in my own way.

I admit that the northern language is not the best in academic level or employment situation, and I can't get the same popularity as the Qingbei People's Congress in the northern language, but what it gives me is the most precious thing that a real university education can give a person.

Sometimes I take a break to think about it. If I had chosen NPC or Beijing Foreign Studies University, what kind of life would it be now? I may become a nine-to-five civil servant, I may devote myself to the financial industry and keep my mouth shut for tens of millions, I may shuttle between the elegant lotus flowers of China and the West in major conferences, I may have 10 thousand possibilities, and I may live a decent and proud life under universal values.

But thanks to the Northern Language, I grew up quietly in this corner outside the universal value for four years, which gave me the courage to give up my dignity and pride, and really found my own shining point, which made me gradually grow into a rich and calm person now.

I have always liked the motto of my alma mater, which is different from most schools.

"Dezi, the world."

Walking through many parts of the world, I also tried to leave some inspiration and help for many people's lives. This motto of my alma mater, in my heart forever.

Take words as the carrier and the world as the field of vision.

I really hope that my schoolmates can understand the painstaking efforts of my alma mater and live an interesting, honest and real life in the world besides providing and submitting resumes.
