Why is Shanghai International Studies University called Sisso?
"Siso" is a transliteration of the English abbreviation SISU.

Shanghai is a foreign language university, and "language charm" is "language charm". "The Charm of Sotheby's Language" is the name of the first half and the second half of an online forum run by students in Songjiang University Town. The Chinese domain name of the once very popular Shanghai Foreign Studies Online Forum, founded by students of Shanghai International Studies University, is "Charming Shanghai International Studies University".

Shanghai Hongkou old campus, located in Shanghai, is very small. The teaching area and living area add up to more than 200 acres. The teaching area and living area are separated by a long and narrow East Sports Association Road and a river in the middle. From the teaching area to the living area, you have to cross the bridge where cars come and go, so the teaching area is even smaller.
