1, an inspirational article about college students, passed by in a hurry, and the smoke of the college entrance examination gradually moved away from us college students who had been struggling for a long time. In college life, most of us step on the electric bell to enter the classroom every day, and even drag our sleepy eyes for ten minutes, twenty minutes and half an hour after class, holding the bread and breakfast bought downstairs in the dormitory and slowly pushing open the back door of the classroom.
When I was a freshman, most of us would go to the supermarket and play by the river with our classmates and roommates. During the short holiday, our classmates will date, climb mountains and take photos together, which will make everyone laugh like flowers. Although life is not as beautiful as high school imagined, we will still say "we are already very happy".
Now that we are in Grade Two, our life seems to be back to the "three points and one line" of high school: dormitory-classroom-canteen. Because of take-out, some students have become "two points and one line": dormitory-classroom, so we can save the time of walking to buy food and queuing, and finally we can play games, watch videos and eat snacks on the computer every day in the dormitory. What's more, I can't go on, and my daily activity radius can't be separated from Fiona Fang, which is a few meters away from my dormitory.
I remember that when we were in the third year of high school, we worked hard for the college entrance examination and worked hard towards our beautiful dreams step by step. I remember that at that time, we were so strict with ourselves and our dreams were so strong. We studied, did problems, recited our memories over and over again, and told ourselves to refuel and realize our wishes for more than 300 days. There are many beautiful memories, warm drops, beautiful joys and sorrows. But what about now? What's wrong with me now? I brush Weibo, chat QQ and visit Taobao every day. At the age of seventy or eighty, we are doing our work at the age when we need to struggle most. What is the point of living? What are we doing? Where is our original ideal? Are our dreams so annihilated? Have we really forgotten our original dream?
Everyone once had a dream, but most people had to give up their dreams because of the cruelty of reality. By the time our life is stable and we have time, we will have gone more than half of our life. Do you still have time and energy to pursue your dreams? Are you willing to bury your dreams in the dormitory like this?
A bad life is like sleeping. You don't sleep when you should, but you can't afford to get up when you should. If the extravagance before going to bed is replaced by greed and cherish between waking up, the value of life will become different. Unfortunately, it can't be changed. It's not that you can't see it, it's not that you can't see it, but if you see it, it's hard to change it. Some people struggle with change all their lives. This struggle is like getting up before getting up. After all, it's too warm in the bed, and the squinting posture is too comfortable. Clearly know that the hope of life is in the future, but the future is too far away and the present is too charming. Many people are mediocre, not because their eyes are not long enough, but because their eyes are always far away and people are always near.
As long as you have a dream, when is the best time to start? Start with your dream. Don't choose to fall down at the age when you need to struggle most, don't let your dreams be buried in the dormitory, and strive to pursue your own distance and find your own direction.
Inspirational article 2 on college students: Thanks to a friend who teaches in the Academy of Fine Arts, I have the opportunity to sit down and talk about life with a group of young friends whose average age is only half of mine.
Although Wang Shuo said jealously, "Fortunately, you won't be young for long." But when you are young, after a long time, where do you need to think about things? Isn't the essence of youth that you can be in a daze, commit crimes, live in the present and squander your life unscrupulously?
However, these children are not happy. They all tell me that they live a gloomy and confused life. When you were a teenager, you were confused! Your face is covered with blood and acne, and you can get young girls to make eyes at you when you knock on the door on the court. What else do you want? Your lips are red, your teeth are white, your chest is stiff, your skin is tight, your face is fluffy, and it will take many years for the fat around your waist to accumulate. Short skirts with small high heels can wear Versace effect. Grab it in front of the classroom, and a large group of small fresh meat will drool at you. What else do you want?
At least I live long enough to say, "Who the fuck is not young? Are you old?" Really, believe me, everything you worry about today seems to be out of your fucking history! Call! Shit! Things! No one can plan your life, and neither can you. You can't even plan how many times you go to the toilet tomorrow, whether it's dry or diarrhea. How do you live?
There may really be wizards in this world who can do calculus in downtown and wash cold water in the twelfth lunar month, but those are all great things, definitely not you. We artists should learn from Mr. Qi Baishi, who is still clamoring for marriage at the age of 95. This is life.
If you want to be confused, read a book.
Biography of Van Gogh, Return to Collection, Wang Xiaobo, One Picture, Xiao Gu Chat Painting ... You can see anything you like. This may be the last time in your life that you can read books according to your own preferences without any utilitarian purpose. Compared with things that you have to grit your teeth in a few years, such as Photoshop from beginner to proficient, writing letters to Garcia, human weakness, and the era of big data, you know how happy it is to have leisure to read books according to your own preferences.
Besides, in a few years, most of you won't finish reading two books in a year. Really. In 20 13 years, the national average annual reading volume is 4.77. Do you think you can be better than them? In the future, you will have a lot of time to fool around in nightclubs on the wine table and quickly become a middle-aged man with brain damage. Then, you were too busy to read a book.
Go play ball if you want to be confused.
There is an unwritten rule in American schools that students with poor physical education will always be excluded from the social circle. That's good. When you were young, you didn't go skiing, bungee jumping, running, flying or going to the stadium to consume excess energy. When are you going to go? When the body is extremely tired, the soul is quiet.
Really, in the future, you can't stand in the dormitory corridor and make a hullabaloo about like today and organize a ball game quickly. In the future, you have to make an appointment one week in advance to reconfirm the time and number of people. Three or five people will drive slowly after midnight, and it will be dark when you change your equipment and arm yourself to your teeth. Then when you are full, you can't wait to give yourself a big mouth and organize a Nima competition!
If you want to be confused, you have to fall in love.
Which girl doesn't love spring and which boy doesn't? Eighteen or nineteen years old, the seed of love, parents in the distance, young friends together, what can you do without falling in love? Maybe you scored a beautiful goal, maybe you painted well, maybe you helped others get an extra bottle of boiled water ... At this time, love is too cheap.
If you want to be confused, draw, write poems and sing.
Painting is not a skill, but a gift from heaven. Less than one person in this world has the talent to have fun with himself and himself. Enjoy painting before it becomes your boring career, or before it completely leaves your life.
A few of you will become professional artists in the future and live a hard life at the bottom; Famous, go to the acupoint to socialize. It is urgent to sell paintings, cheap ones and expensive ones. Most of you will stay away from the art career, do advertising, decorate, be junior clerks and be successful businessmen. It was not until the class reunion that I remembered, oh, I also learned to draw. In any case, the future has lost its original heart.
There are so many damn things to do, you tell me you are confused? Don't envy old people. The old man is young, but that is the past tense. If possible, the elderly are willing to exchange everything for your age today. Because what I have today, you will all have it later. What you have now, we will never have again.
What you have to worry about is whether to skip class and sleep in the dormitory tomorrow, how to send chocolate to the girl you like, how to find the annoying boy in the next class and beat him up ... it is a beautiful trivial matter that you should worry about at your age. If you are young, you can work hard. Because no matter what you do, the cost is very small, and you still have plenty of time to come again.
One day, you will reach the age where you can't try again and again, the vulgar middle age, and the middle age of daily necessities.
Inspirational Articles about College Students 3 —— Former President of Wuhan University Liu Daoyu
I am an educational idealist, encouraging educational reform. After more than 30 years of educational reform, I have experienced twists and turns, but my ideal has not disappeared so far.
Facing today's education, I feel worried. Because Huada is in crisis now. For example, the quality of teaching is seriously declining, the employment of college graduates is difficult, graduate students are in a bubble, the style of study is exaggerated and academic fraud is made, the quality of professors and doctoral supervisors is seriously declining, the industrialization of education or disguised industrialization is intensifying, the extravagance and waste of colleges and universities are serious, debts are heavy, and the official standard is becoming more and more serious. ...
The crisis of universities is not only a crisis of ideology, but also a crisis of structure and quality. How to treat "college disease"? The root of the treatment lies in the Ministry of Education, but doctors can't do the operation themselves, and eventually they have to invite a third party.
I suggest that, under the direct leadership of the State Council, an expert and innovative education reform planning group be set up to work out China's education reform plan. Making a reform plan needs the guidance of educational ideals, otherwise it can only be a "stopgap measure" and will not help to completely change the current chaotic situation of university education.
As many scholars and educators as they want, there are as many ideal universities. What is my ideal university like? They should have the following characteristics:
1. People-oriented. Man is the product of natural development. People are both the starting point and the ultimate goal of education. Human education must follow the laws of nature, and the liberation of personality and wisdom is the highest goal of education. The ideal university must be people-oriented, must respect people's freedom, rights, dignity, interests and choices, implement humanized teaching and management, and fully liberate people's personality and wisdom.
2. University independence. Universities are not only independent of the country, but also independent of the market, civil society or international market. Once a university loses its independence, it will be politicized or utilitarian. As the German philosopher Arendt said, "When a university establishes a policy of serving interest groups, it is undoubtedly equivalent to suicide."
3. Freedom of thought. Complete personal freedom and personality development are not only the foundation of personal happiness, but also the symbol of social progress. Freedom not only means getting rid of restrictions, but also means understanding inevitability.
4. Academic supremacy. Teachers and students in an ideal university must take academics as their lifelong career, be content with poverty and pursue pure academic research, take risks in their research work and be responsible for the consequences of their actions.
5. Democratic style of study. The ideal university is the place where the truth is put forward unconditionally, and the democratic study style of independence, impartiality, breaking superstition, daring to question and contend is the fundamental guarantee of creation.
6. Create more. The vitality of an ideal university lies in creation, so the spirit of creation must be carried out in all fields of school work. Teachers teach for creation and students learn for creation.
In a word, my ideal university is a creative paradise with academic supremacy. They pursue the ultimate goal of truth, devote themselves to studying the frontier of science and the most urgent problems of mankind, make a century-long university question, and make contributions to the long-term well-being of mankind.
The ideal university should be a university of law, and its independence, autonomy, democracy and freedom must be guaranteed by law.
Schools should also issue authoritative university statutes, and must act in accordance with the law on the selection of university presidents, school development planning, establishment and functions of institutions, appointment and removal of personnel, and management of teaching and scientific research. According to the university charter, everyone in the university is equal, and anyone who violates the university charter, from the president to every teacher and student, must bear corresponding legal responsibilities.
There are various subjects with different interests in the university. Colleges and universities should not only give full play to the positive role of teachers, students and staff in running schools, but also effectively protect their rights and freedoms, such as freedom of teaching, freedom of study and choice, freedom of research, freedom of training talents and freedom of work.
Universities must be diversified. The success of American higher education lies in its diversity, never comparing with each other, and each has its own characteristics. Every type of university has its own first place. On the contrary, the failure of Huada lies in its blind pursuit of "high, large and comprehensive" school-running mode. Therefore, any ideal university should not be exclusive and can only undertake its own tasks.
The ideal university is the utopia of education, and education needs utopia.
Plato's ideal country governed by "the king of philosophy" has not been established after all; Rousseau's emir-style ideal citizen has not been cultivated either. However, The Republic and Emile are educational classics that people are still reading, inspiring people to pursue their ideals.
As the philosopher said, "As long as Plato's Republic and Rousseau's Emile remain in the world, even if all educational works are destroyed, the garden of education will still be rich and fragrant."
This is the role of ideals, they will inspire people to move forward on the ideal road.
According to the results of thousands of questionnaires and the theory of target analysis, college students are divided into the following types. Please take your seats accordingly. The purpose of classification is to awaken everyone's goal consciousness and let everyone know themselves roughly. Of course, knowing yourself is not that simple.
The first type, the correct target type, is not much, accounting for about 8% of the total number of college students.
For example, Qin Xiyan can recite thousands of legal provisions in one breath and eventually become one of the top ten lawyers; Either you can find a clear goal outside your major, or you can develop something outside your major into your career. For example, Cai Feiming, a student majoring in broadcasting engineering, became famous by magic with the help of his teacher.
This kind of people can know themselves, have clear goals, have the same interests and goals, so they live a full and focused life and soon become the best.
After reading this article, don't think you are this type. Ask yourself, are you really addicted to your major? Can you stick to your hobby like Yuan Longping, regardless of ups and downs, poverty, disease and aging? In other words, do you know what you can do outside your major to settle down and support your family?
If you don't know, don't wait in line.
Second, the wrong target type, accounting for about 15% of the total.
The performance is that either you don't like this major, but you have to memorize it to get a scholarship, or you have to desperately pass CET-4 or CET-6, or you have to take the postgraduate entrance examination blindly; Or take hobbies and interests that can't be a career as career goals. For example, a person who is less than 165 but crazy about basketball told me to play basketball for dinner. A person who likes to sing karaoke and is crazy about Michael Jackson, but has never participated in a competition and won an award (and has not seen other talents), actually said that he would release an album and hold a concert.
Such people have the wrong goal: they don't know themselves, and they are often narrow-minded and paranoid.
Consequences: wrong goals, biased interests and limited abilities make such people either suffer losses or are doomed to failure, and no matter what they do, they will not achieve much. Example: Many people who muddle along after being admitted to graduate school, and many people who muddle along at work, are rooted in unclear goals. On the surface, they seem to live a leisurely life, but in fact, what floats in their hearts is the real pain.
Solution: Such people are self-motivated, willing to work hard and passionate. As long as they have a correct goal, they will still make a difference.
The third type, aimless type is the most, accounting for 60% of the total.
The performance is that I have no feelings for my major, let alone like it or not, and I don't know what else I can do. Get up for dinner every day, attend classes normally, study by myself occasionally, and often sleep and play games. There are few arrangements and plans for attending classes for the sake of attending classes. Do not like learning, average grades, not keen on club exercise, part-time, internship, entrepreneurship. I like shopping, sleeping and chatting online. I have no thoughts and won't make any big mistakes. These people don't work hard, but they don't degenerate. They often blame themselves and are easily influenced by others. The largest number. Reflected in society, it is the reason why there are so many mediocrities.
Such people generally don't know themselves, have no clear goals, hand over their future to majors and schools, lack ambition, passion and perseverance, and have poor employability. The way out for this kind of people is employment within the system and in the professional direction, which is not suitable for challenging and innovative work, and there is not much room for career development and salary. If you deviate from professional employment, you may be on the edge of society because you don't have professional knowledge, are not particularly diligent and passionate.
Solution: This kind of person lacks ambition and passion in his bones. If someone stimulates them, they will work hard occasionally. When it comes to radical changes, they need someone to constantly correct and influence them in addition to clear goals, which is quite difficult. The sentence "look at the old at the age of three" may not be correct, but when used here, "look at the old at the age of twenty" still makes sense.
The fourth category is target hunger and thirst, accounting for about 15% of the total.
The performance is: I don't like my major, I don't like to work hard for my grades, I don't want to fall with people around me, I often feel guilty and bitter, I am very motivated, I want to find something more promising to do, but I don't know how to do it. As a result, I passed CET-4 and CET-6 crazily, took the postgraduate entrance examination crazily and taught myself crazily. The more you learn, the more confused and painful you are.
Cause and effect: Although this kind of people are painful and anxious, because their goals are not clear, they often get twice the result with half the effort and the effect is not good, so they are not destined to be the best kind of people. This kind of person has no "external self" in my target study and no options.
Solution: However, such people are hardworking, willing to endure hardships, and have passion and potential in their bones. As long as there is expert guidance and a breakthrough is found, it will develop rapidly.
The fifth category is completely degraded, accounting for about 2% of the total.
Performance: I don't like this major and I don't like anything else. I don't study, and I don't participate in club activities part-time. I'm just talking about eating, drinking and having fun. It's total vagrancy and indulgence.
Such people have no thoughts, no skills, and may also have no quality or morality. Their basic development direction is social hooligans, and they are terminally ill, and their bad habits are hard to change and solve (it doesn't mean that there will be prodigals coming back).
