Chapter 1552: The Problem of Eating
Chapter 1552 The Problem of Eating
After arriving at Lanxi University, Wang Jian, accompanied by President Shao Jiangshui, inspected the current construction of Lanxi University.
Wang Jian originally served in Lanxi Province, Shao Jiangshui naturally felt that Wang Jian came here after taking office, which was a kind of attention to his work, Lanxi University is also a university directly under education, and the president is also the level of the deputy department, and the status is also very high, but in front of Wang Jian, Shao Jiangshui still has to respect it very much, after all, in the right to appoint the president, the Ministry of Education has a greater right to speak than the Huaxia Organization Department, so he still has to tie up with Wang Jian.
Seeing that construction was being carried out here, Wang Jian asked expressionlessly, "What are your debts now?" ”
If universities want to develop, they will definitely not work without money, and all universities want money, and there are more cups of porridge and less porridge, so the current universities are all in debt, and in the future, after the expansion of enrollment, they will use the tuition income to repay the debts, which is completely a kind of enterprise management, and the work of education is also a kind of innovation.
After hearing Wang Jian's question, Shao Jiangshui said: "We now have more than 5 billion debts, and through debt management, the school has been developed. ”
Hearing his words, Wang Jian smiled indifferently and said: "You have so many debts, I just need some more funds, I'm afraid it won't be enough for you, what about so many schools, your school is so big, can you recruit so many teachers?" ”
Shao Jiangshui said: "We are now trying to attract well-known teachers to come, give them settling-in allowances, as well as academic start-up funds, and we have also invested a lot in this area." ”
Wang Jian nodded and said, "How much is the student's tuition fee now?" ”
Shao Jiangshui said: "The tuition fee for our current students is about 10,000 yuan a year, and each major is different, but we want to add some more, and we need the approval of the ministry." ”
After hearing this situation, Wang Jian immediately said: "It can't be increased, and the society will not be able to bear it, so our education department will have to bear a lot of public opinion pressure and use market means to carry out education. ”
Shao Jiangshui listened to Wang Jian's words, thought for a while and said: "Education is originally a sunny industry, if we don't do this, we can't develop, we have expanded the enrollment of a lot of students through this development model, and the masses have more opportunities to go to university, and someone will understand us in this regard." ”
Wang Jian didn't speak after hearing this, he had reservations about this development model, but he couldn't say it now, after all, this kind of thing still occupied the mainstream, if he didn't do it, where did he get so much money for construction?
However, in the case of the expansion of the university, on the basis of the development of quantity, there must be a qualitative improvement, the university should not only take the road of popularization, but also take the track of elitism, without this kind of elitism, it will never be able to produce masters, can not become a world-class famous school, so Wang Jian thought about it and said to Shao Jiangshui: "Now the university is expanding, there are more students, the number of our university is increasing, so many college students graduate every year, employment has become a problem, this is a positive one."
But we also have to see the negative side, that is, the number of universities is increasing, but what is the rate of talent increase? Even if we develop according to the laws of the market, how many of the talents we have cultivated are adapted to the requirements of the development of the market economy? If our school is in accordance with the requirements of the market, then the product we produce is a special product, that is, talents, if we expand the enrollment, the quality of the product is declining, I am afraid this is not in line with the law of the market. The expansion of university enrollment is worthy of affirmation, but while we follow the law of market development, we must also pay attention to the law of education, we must be able to cultivate outstanding talents, college students must become the elite of society, not stand out from the crowd, we must consider more in this regard. ”
Wang Jian has just taken office as Minister of Education, but he has put forward such a profound thought, which made Shao Jiangshui not expect that Wang Jian is right, the school has developed greatly according to the laws of the market, has become rich, and the number of students has increased, but can it provide qualified products to the market? Will it be possible for students to find suitable jobs? Since everything is operated by market means, it is necessary to fully adapt to the needs of the market, not only in the collection of tuition fees in line with international standards, but also in the debt management with the market, the key is whether the students can adapt to the needs of the market? Wang Jian immediately saw the essence of the problem, not under the guise of the market but against the laws of the market, this is just to provide an excuse for the expansion of the school.
After hearing this, Shao Jiangshui hurriedly said: "What Minister Wang said is that we are also studying this problem now, and the employment of college students has indeed encountered many problems, and the school has done a lot of work in order to allow them to have a good employment channel. ”
After Wang Jian heard him say this, he said: "In fact, it is not that we recruit more college students to cause employment difficulties, the reason for our employment difficulties is mainly structural, we do not set up majors in accordance with the needs of the market, train students, and now we are vigorously developing vocational colleges, if vocational colleges develop well, I am afraid it will have a greater impact on the average college student, as a university, it is necessary to change the way of thinking in a timely manner, and respond to the changes in the situation by means of the market, in addition to elite teaching is indispensable, We must build the commanding heights of universities and compete with the schools of developed countries! ”
Shao Jiangshui felt that Wang Jian was very ambitious, unlike the previous minister, who had never had an in-depth discussion with him in this regard, but when he came here to see their construction, he gave full affirmation, and then left.
Accompanied Wang Jian to inspect for a long time, to lunch, Shao Jiangshui took him to a five-star hotel next to the school to eat, Wang Jian learned and said to him: "Your school is still in debt, don't go to such a luxurious hotel, the school doesn't have a canteen for teachers and students, just go there to eat." ”
Wang Jian's words made Shao Jiangshui directly dumbfounded, you must know that the student's cafeteria is very untasty, although it is now collecting students' tuition, but it still earns students' money, the canteen shop in the school, it is definitely a monopoly, the students have no right to speak, the school canteen is unpalatable, and they have no choice, if Wang Jian finds out after eating it, wouldn't it be bad?
Shao Jiangshui disagreed with Wang Jian's opinion, and insisted on taking Wang Jian to eat the big wine over there
It is not enough to have 10,000 pieces at the end of the meal, in fact, everyone still doesn't eat much, Wang Jian is tired of this kind of occasion, it is completely for the sake of face, it is not a problem of eating at all, but it shows that the following does not pay attention to the leaders above. So when he was in Hexi, he basically didn't go to the hotel, after the leaders above came, he let him go to the canteen of the municipal party committee compound to eat, some leaders were very unhappy, and left without eating, and he didn't care.
Now Shao Jiangshui insisted on letting him eat, so Wang Jian said again: "I'll go to the student cafeteria to eat, and by the way, I'll go and chat with the students." ”
Shao Jiangshui was even more startled when he heard this: "Minister Wang, this matter has not been arranged in advance, and it is a problem for your safety, so I think forget it." ”
Wang Jianwan smiled and said, "Why prepare in advance, the students are not fierce and vicious, could they pose a threat to my safety?" Impossible! ”
Shao Jiangshui heard Wang Jian say this, he had nothing to say, he couldn't stop Wang Jian from doing this, so he had to take Wang Jian to the student cafeteria, and at the same time, he hurriedly arranged for others to go to the school to arrange it first.
Receiving his eyes, the other school leaders hurriedly arranged this matter, evacuated the students, and then cooked a few delicious meals for Wang Jian, but Wang Jian couldn't really let Wang Jian eat the students' meals.
Walking slowly to the entrance of the student cafeteria, Wang Jian found that there were very few students in and out, and as soon as others opened the student cafeteria for him, when he arrived inside, he found that only a few students were eating inside, and this time should be the peak period for eating, how could there be no students?
Wang Jian's face changed all of a sudden and said, "You drove the students away so quickly? ”
Seeing that Wang Jian was unhappy, Shao Jiangshui hurriedly said: "The students all eat about the same, and there are a few students who eat here, Minister Wang, don't be too careful, let's go in now!" ”
Wang Jian didn't speak, he walked in, came to the window of the canteen to sell food, he looked inside and found that there were still many meals that had not been sold, which showed that the students had not finished eating at all, but Shao Jiangshui came over and shouted: "Minister Wang, let's go sit over there, there are still a few students over there." ”
Wang Jian looked back at the students, and knew that they must have been pre-arranged students, originally wanted to come over to eat a little casually, and then chat with the students, and he didn't have any special ideas, but he wanted to do this once, why was it so difficult? Can't the leaders really go deep into the masses to understand the situation? You have to arrange it in advance to make a good show? Are there any high and low students? Why are these students eligible to see themselves and the others not? Is it true that they will be able to become talents after graduating from school, and other students will not be able to become talents?
Wang Jian thought of this, feeling that although the school is an ivory tower, it is the same emphasis on the upper and lower levels as the locality, and the bureaucratic atmosphere is very strong, so that training students will definitely not be able to train masters, he should be a minister in the country should be very big, but the minister is also a human being, and he is also an ordinary person with flesh and blood, and it is normal to contact with the general masses, don't make yourself like a cannibal fireworks, unless they have something to hide from themselves, and dare not let themselves know.
