What is the reason why self-funded reading is so popular? The reporter found the following reasons in the investigation. In the interview, the reporter met Huang Xiantong, the headmaster of Hunan Hengyang Steel Pipe Factory Children's School, who went to Changsha at his own expense to help students contact the university. Talking about the cause of this heat wave, he said: "According to the national education reform policy, public tuition and self-funded tuition will be merged soon, and public tuition will no longer be conducted in the future, and all of them will be prepared to study at their own expense. Before it was fully rolled out, some colleges and universities had taken the lead in implementing it, such as Xiangtan University in Hunan Province and most colleges and universities in Guangdong Province, all at their own expense this year. Now parents have a strong sense of policy, and they all know the policy. As a large area of public and self-funded areas will be merged next year, tuition fees will be self-funded and the distribution will be two-way. Since students have joined the self-funded line this year, why bother to repeat one year? There is no guarantee that you will do well in the exam next year. If you fail the exam next year, won't you miss your child's future? The reform of education is undoubtedly one of the main reasons for the popularity of self-funded reading. Among the self-funded readers, some people have joined the public service line. However, they give up junior college and prefer to study undergraduate courses at their own expense. At Changsha Railway Institute, the reporter chatted with Mr. Liu who was waiting in line to receive the registration form. He learned that he worked in a chemical plant in Hengyang, and his son was admitted to a junior college this time, but he didn't want to go to a junior college and insisted on studying undergraduate. He is very supportive of his son's view of "one step at a time". Mr. Liu said that he graduated from a technical secondary school, and his decades of experience made him feel wronged for this kind of technical secondary school education. Almost every time he evaluates his professional title and raises his salary, he is embarrassed and embarrassed. In order to avoid this embarrassment, at the age of 40, he gritted his teeth and got a diploma from the self-taught college. Think about your own experience, and then think about the reality that the educational level is generally high in the future. It is better to study undergraduate now than to study junior college now and undergraduate in the future. With the continuous development of society, people pay more and more attention to the level of academic qualifications.
As we all know, students need to pay their own expenses. Although the amount of money varies from school to school and from major to major, it is still considerable. After graduating from college, tuition, meals and pocket money range from 20,000 to 70,000-80,000. According to a survey conducted by the State Education Commission, the average annual training for an undergraduate is 1000 yuan, which is 40,000 yuan in four years. Onlookers said that instead of spending so much money on study, it is better to save, earn some interest or do business.
How do the authorities explain their obsession? The reporter interviewed an aunt of Hunan Normal University. She is a worker in a machinery factory in Hengyang. Her daughter enrolled in Hunan Normal University English education at her own expense this year. She told reporters that some money had been saved at home. Instead of making a dowry for the child in the future, it is better to let her go to school, study and learn skills, and earn money and spend it herself in the future. Spending money on children's education is an intellectual investment. In the interview, the reporter found that students and parents who came to sign up at their own expense recognized this new investment concept. Especially now, many of these candidates are only children, and the money saved at home is for them to study. Director Li of the Admissions Office of the Student Affairs Office of Hunan Normal University told the reporter that some self-funded students have obtained publicly funded undergraduate courses, but they are unwilling to study because they are faced with ten unsatisfactory majors. But to seek some popular majors and study voluntarily at their own expense.
The reporter has a friend. This time, his child was admitted to the undergraduate line, but the score just reached the line, which was not ideal. It is estimated that he can be admitted to the popular major of his school, and his competitiveness is not strong. This time, he specially asked for half a month's leave, and he was going to contact some colleges and universities such as Xiangtan University to let his children learn a good major. He has reasons why hundreds of millions of people are so persistent. He said: the major is not good, the future income gap is big, and it is not easy to find a work unit. ? In July this year, China Youth Daily published a diary of a college student's job search. This Hunan native is an excellent graduate, but because his major is not taken seriously, he is always cold-faced wherever he looks for a job. Different majors restrict future development and affect future distribution. Many people have this view.
At present, the employment pressure is very great. While the number of unemployed people is rising, the number of unemployed people is also increasing. In recent years, the loss of large, medium and small enterprises in China has reached half. Enterprises are seriously overstaffed, and government agencies have to streamline their personnel, resulting in fewer employment opportunities. After graduating from high school, some students have to stay at home and look for jobs if they are not admitted to the university. Therefore, some parents provide a stage for self-funded students to find jobs when it is difficult to find jobs for their children's future. Fourthly, some schools promise to recommend jobs when recruiting self-funded students, which is also a temptation. Some coastal cities, especially some special zone cities such as Shenzhen and Zhuhai, pay attention to practical ability. As long as you have a diploma and pass the recruitment examination, you can work at public expense and at your own expense. In fact, many self-funded students have found jobs that they are satisfied with.
In addition to paying fees, there are three differences between unplanned self-funded students and public-funded students: first, they do not include distribution; second, they do not have cadre indicators; and third, they do not move their hukou. For these three differences, some parents and students have shown a fairly open attitude. It does not include distribution, but it can still be distributed if it matters. It doesn't matter. Public students have also become a two-way choice, and it is difficult to find a unit. This year, the number of college graduates nationwide reached 895,000, more than 300,000 more than 1994. Many people can only find jobs by themselves, and it is getting harder and harder to allocate them. If you study at your own expense, you can also compete if you learn real skills later. Second, enterprises have begun to implement the full-time contract system, the boundaries between workers and cadres are being broken day by day, and the cadre indicators are useless. The recruitment of civil servants in government agencies has already begun to adopt the method of public examination. As long as they have real talent and practical learning, they can also be admitted. In Hunan Medical University, a parent and a reporter said: For example, if you study at the medical university at your own expense, you have the ability to open your own clinic, and you will also develop in the future.
The upsurge of going to college at one's own expense fully illustrates the innovation of people's ideas, which is a kind of progress and a positive wave for the whole society. However, due to the limitation of enrollment plan, colleges and universities have to close down quickly after opening for a period of time in the face of the surging self-funded upsurge. Comrades who enroll students in colleges and universities feel sorry when they look at the people outside the door, while students and parents who are rejected sigh when they look at the door.
Studying at one's own expense can reduce the pressure of running a school, train more talents and help improve the quality of the whole people. This should be a good thing. Some parents called on the state to increase some places accordingly, so that more people who want to study can have books to read.
