In the hearts of local people in Jingdezhen, the School of Science, Technology and Art of Jingdezhen Ceramic University is an "old ceramic college" with a deep relationship with Jingdezhen Ceramic University. Over the years, the admission score of Jingdezhen Ceramic University's cultural courses has not been much higher than that of the College of Science and Technology, and changing the name is unfair to the college entrance examination results of the students of the Academy of Sciences. It is suggested to use the names of Jingdezhen Art College and Jingdezhen Institute of Science and Technology. Talk about this proposal from three aspects: policy, school and students.
First, the policy: transfer is not just for you.
"Vocational education and general education are two different types of education, which have the same important position", which is the policy clearly put forward by the State Council in the Notice on Printing and Distributing the Implementation Plan of National Vocational Education Reform issued on 20 19. It is beneficial and harmless for the whole country to let young students master certain vocational skills, integrate into society conveniently and quickly, and find their own position.
Matching this is the state's investment in resources and funds for the development of vocational education. To put it simply, vocational and technical university is the future development direction, and the transformation into vocational and technical university is beneficial and harmless to the school's resource acquisition and sustainable development.
The Ministry of Education explicitly requires the national independent colleges to complete the transfer plan by the end of 2020, and the policy is not only aimed at a certain province or an institution. It is mentioned in the students' suggestions that "domestic vocational colleges are all vocational colleges (such as Jiujiang Vocational College) or some colleges that have only completed the work of upgrading from college to undergraduate in the past two years (such as Nanchang Vocational College)"
Not all colleges named after "occupation" are higher vocational colleges, but there are also two public undergraduate enrollment colleges like Tianjin Vocational and Technical Teachers College. 20 10 used the current school name, and 20 17 entered the ranks of high-level characteristic universities in Tianjin. Of course, this is a special case.
Not to mention other independent colleges, among the national independent colleges, liren college of yanshan university has a strong comprehensive strength and a special position. Moreover, the school is sponsored by Yanshan University and belongs to semi-public nature. Did not refuse to change the word "occupation" in the school name.
Second, say schools: universities need influence.
The new school name "Jingdezhen Art Vocational University" is not a plan made by slapping the head, but is agreed by all parties concerned in the school, including Wen Tao Tourism Company, Jingdezhen Ceramic University and Institute of Science and Technology of Jingdezhen Ceramic University.
When we discuss changing the name of a school, we should think of the future, not the past and the present. Undeniably, most vocational colleges in China are named after the word "occupation". However, with the vigorous promotion of the country, there will be more and more vocational and technical universities in the future, and social cognition will change accordingly.
It only takes four years for students to enter school and graduate, and the educational system of a school is at least ten years. If you stick to the word "occupation", you will miss the opportunity of development, which has little influence on students and is of great significance to the school.
According to the management method of Jingdezhen Ceramic University School of Science and Technology and Art during the transfer period, students enter the school in the name of the old school, which is responsible for teaching and management, and issue the certificate of the old school after graduation. Enroll students in the name of a new school, which is responsible for teaching and management and issues certificates to the new school. It should be said that the school also attaches great importance to the protection of students' interests.
It is impossible for a university to recruit students only in the province, and it certainly doesn't want only people in the province to know its name. Stand higher and see farther. If we want to expand the influence of the school in the whole country, there is still a big gap from the word "university".
Thirdly, the students said: Empathy is very useful.
In China, as well as in Shanghai, Chongqing and other municipalities directly under the central government, there have been many cases in which schools merged or changed their names and were opposed by students and parents. Times have changed. When we look back, most schools that stopped the pace of reform because of opposition and missed policy opportunities will regret it. To paraphrase an old saying, "After this village, there is no such store".
The reason why the students mentioned in the suggestion that "the scores of Jingdezhen Ceramic University and Jingdezhen Ceramic University are not much different". In Jiangxi Province, Jingdezhen Ceramic University has enrolled students in the first and second batches, and the School of Science, Technology and Art of Jingdezhen Ceramic University only enrolled students in the second batch. Aside from the first batch of undergraduate courses, I only talk about the enrollment scores of the second batch of undergraduate courses in two schools.
In terms of science, in the second batch of undergraduate courses in 2020, Jingdezhen Ceramic University scored a minimum of 504 points, and Jingdezhen Ceramic University College of Science and Technology scored 467 points, with a difference of 37 points between the two schools; In the second batch of 20 19 undergraduate courses, the minimum admission score of Jingdezhen Ceramic University is 488 points, and the College of Science and Technology of Jingdezhen Ceramic University is 452 points, with a difference of 36 points between the two universities; In the second batch of undergraduate courses in 20 18, the minimum admission score of Jingdezhen Ceramic University is 486 points, and that of Science and Technology College of Jingdezhen Ceramic University is 447 points, with a difference of 39 points. Don't underestimate these 30-odd points, the difference between them is more than 30 thousand. You know, the total number of applicants for the college entrance examination in Jiangxi is just over 400,000.
To sum up, renaming colleges and universities is not a trivial matter, and it is normal for students to have opinions on the preliminary plan. In the whole thing, the school should not consider the opinions of previous graduates and students, resulting in poor information communication. If the school is willing to put down its posture and communicate in advance; If students are willing to put themselves in their shoes and fully understand, I believe there will be no "unexpected" things.
