How about East China Normal University?
Viewpoint 1
1. Like other schools, this school has a lot of public problems
The reason why we take logistics as an example and start shooting is that logistics is the most criticized by students. Logistics is responsible for food, housing, bathing and school bus. However, the overall quality and sense of responsibility of the logistics backstage group are not worth mentioning. However, most of the people at the logistics front desk, such as the housekeeper, cleaning aunt and canteen aunt, are very nice. They often leave a good impression when they contact with students directly. There are too many logistics slots, but students' poor comments do not affect the salaries of these people.
Of course, other departments have a lot of shit. For example, if a school club wants to borrow a venue for an activity, it doesn't need to pay for it. The formalities need a lot of money. It's often impossible to get it done after running around. It's a typical public face. But another relatively clear fact is that some things cannot be blamed on people or the system, but there is no way. For example, financial related issues must be clarified to avoid disputes, which will be serious once there are problems; For example, the safety of activities is really going to happen. It's the school that wipes the bottom. No one dares to say that if there is a problem, I will be responsible for it, so everyone can only do what they are doing according to the rules and procedures. In general, this aspect is relatively complicated, and the units within the system are inevitable. So although the Chinese teacher is not good enough, it is still within an acceptable range.
2. In addition to logistics, many people in this school treat students with heart
Among the other answers, some students have already said this. Some teachers they know are conscientious and responsible. As far as my own experience in the soft college is concerned, most of the teachers are very serious about the students. If you have any questions, you can ask or ask him for help (of course, not only at the end of the term). He is very enthusiastic. I won't repeat many answers. What I need to say is to add some other "teachers". Here, teachers are put in quotation marks because when we find many people in the school to solve problems, they are actually only employees of functional departments. Strictly speaking, they cannot be called "teachers". Teachers, preach, teach and dispel doubts. What did the logistics people tell you? What puzzles did the Youth League members solve for you? It can't be said that all the people working in the university are teachers. For the students, it's OK to call them teachers. On the one hand, it's most convenient and respectful. On the other hand, no one will feel any problem, including me.
I don't know how many students will feel that if you encounter problems in life, even if you can't solve them for a while, you can also find other people in the school to help solve them, and the way is open and obvious, but you don't usually notice it. As far as my personal experience is concerned, I have been here for three and a half years. Most things are about finding out which department is in charge, who to contact, and how to contact. So I have been living a comfortable life. There is nothing disturbing. And I often think of something unintentionally and go to see it again. The school has already considered it and done work. Because you can encounter problems, it is almost certain that many other students will also encounter them, and the corresponding handling methods of these people are very quick. This is to deal with problems. On the other hand, we care and think about students. In my opinion, Huashi has done a very good job.
3. There is no doubt that this school also has a handful of teachers who do not deserve to be called teachers
I don't know how to get such a high ranking in the geography department. It was bought with money. I don't know who is ranking in these rankings, right. (I may have forgotten that there are a group of geography students sitting below)
There should be no orphans here. Their conditions are poor, and they usually can't go to college.
Is this what a college teacher can say to students in class? It is also in China's top normal university.
The other is I am very familiar with, Yang educational administration of the Software Institute. It is clear to all students of Soft College that they hardly reply to emails and often do things unreliable. If I can stand the small things, I really feel uncomfortable about one thing last time. A student's Japanese class grade changed from full grade to 1.5 due to a mistake made by the educational administration. The reply from the educational administration was: "If you lose, you can't change it. Next year, you will revise it.". Which of you has heard of such a student trap? A 4-credit course, you can retake it if you want? Later, the student went to the school's educational administration and got things done. It has nothing to do with me, so I can only be upset. If I really put it on me, I will definitely talk to her about life and teach her how to behave.
There is no denying that a small number of teachers and staff in this school are irresponsible and incompetent.
But fortunately, they are not so important to us, and their number is very small. Now, the 985 University's professional teachers like Huashi come in without a doctor's degree+overseas study experience. Don't think about it. Those who can meet the conditions will not become mentally disabled as above.
4. Huashi is a university embracing change
What is eternal? Many people will answer: change itself.
I am quite satisfied with Huashi's innovation. The responsive page on the home page of the official website has been used by domestic universities for a long time; The introduction of the new course selection system by the Office of Academic Affairs is an innovation of the traditional way of course selection (although it is also a reference for foreign universities); Provide sakai platform for teachers to attend classes (this is also a reference abroad). No matter whether these new things are good or bad, and whether they are appropriate, it is always good to have such attempts and follow-up. I have some communication with the Information Office of Huashi Normal University, and I am familiar with it. I know that they have been trying to do something to provide a better learning and living environment for students. But after all, universities are not Internet companies. They can't spend money indiscriminately, and there is no chance of trial and error. Therefore, every new thing online should pursue a "stable" word. This often limits the implementation of many good ideas. Many students always ask why our school has no xx function and why xx is designed to be so troublesome. Most of the time, it is just because that group of people consider and take care of more things than you. Many unreasonable aspects of the system are also being optimized. The most recent one is that if you lose your campus card, you can get a new one one day later. Previously, you had to wait three days. This is not technically impossible. I don't feel that I have any scruples, but it is actually a problem of system change. I don't know who set the three-day rule in mind at the beginning, but it is actually useless. It is always worthwhile to pay a 20 yuan card supplement fee in advance and have a meal in the dormitory in three days. If someone really picks up your card and returns it, one day is often enough.
There are still many problems left over from history on the functional website of the school, and some requirements for students have not been realized (such as charging campus cards online). But it's really just that the progress is a little slow, and there are too many things to consider. It's just a matter of grinding, rather than deliberately not doing it.

Let's start with the advantages. 985211, these hardware conditions did not have any advantages during school (many equipment in Minhang Library and Teaching Building were written with funds from 985), but this is a very important stepping stone in the future, at least it means that it will not be easily eliminated by HR due to the problem of school grade. For teachers' major, many former alumni are now principals and vice principals of middle schools. Thanks to the alumni, the employment rate of normal school students is high every year, and many students go to key middle schools in various cities to teach. In addition, there are more students going abroad. In recent years, the number of students in the United States ranks among the top ten universities in China, probably because Shanghai is more open.
Life is free during school. When I was in Mindahuang, my dorm had air conditioning, no power cut at night, no morning running in the morning, and 24-hour network. I was much happier than my friends in Shanghai University. The housekeeper aunt has never checked the illegal electrical appliances, and the hot pot boiling in the dormitory will not trip. There is a vending machine downstairs in the dormitory, and the supermarket and convenience store are nearby, so life is comfortable.
The library in Min Dahuang is my favorite place. It is known as the third largest library in Shanghai. Books and magazines are updated quickly, and there are many spacious and bright seats. Except for one that is hard to find before the final exam, it is usually a summer resort. It is really a summer resort to look through books and magazines, and go out to eat when hungry. Although it looks like a toilet, it's still a pleasure to watch a movie in the multimedia classroom upstairs.
Famous teachers and high-level lectures. As liberal arts students, the teachers of China Normal University are quite attractive. Xu Jilin, Shen Zhihua, Yang Kuissong, Mao Haijian, Xiao Yanzhong... The works of these professors are very worth reading, and they often hold academic salons and lectures in school. In addition, Zhou Hong and Hong Yafei are good teachers who give lectures with distinctive characteristics. You know what the students of China Normal University know... During school, I heard many lectures, and I remember Chen Danqing, Liang Wendao, Xu Zidong, Chen Jiaying, Jiang Nanchun, Su Tong, etc. Also impressed is a salon of the former director of the Taipei Municipal Bureau of Culture, who talked about urban cultural construction, which is very interesting.
The atmosphere of the school is relaxed and free. Compared with other excellent universities, I personally think that China Normal University is not so philistine and does not deliberately cater to social needs. As a liberal arts student, I feel that the influence of secularism on China Normal University is not as obvious as that of other schools. Every day I talk about offers and job hunting. Of course, the poor employment service of China Normal University is also obvious to all... I like the feeling of ivory tower, and I also feel that the students of China Normal University are generally simple. Sometimes we discuss metaphysical things together, Maybe compared with the topic of finding a job, this atmosphere attracts my free and useless soul more.
Talk about shortcomings. First of all, there is more than enough. In front of Shanghai, there is Fudan Jiaotong University Tongji, which is difficult to surpass, and behind Shanghai Shangcai Shangwai, which catches up. As a comprehensive normal university, it always feels a bit awkward. As long as graduates from China Normal University are always labeled as "teachers", in fact, we are a comprehensive university with many non normal majors. Hey!
Another is that freedom is a double-edged sword, which requires students to have a stronger ability of self-management. Constant electricity in the dormitory may lead to late entertainment activities, such as playing cards or games, which may affect students who go to bed early and get up early and study hard. The dormitory climate is very important. Some of them go to bed early and get up early to take the postgraduate examination in a group, and some of them skip class in a group who play games all night in the dormitory in the morning. It is still personal to cultivate.
Club activities are boring. As a student of China Normal University, I think the club activities are not rich and colorful enough. I can't think of any impressive activities after graduation. I used to be a member of the Student Union. I know that as an organizer, the financial support of the college and department is really small, and no one can make our school so poor... No matter how good the creativity is, it will cost money, so I hope that later people can make the club activities more lively, otherwise, college life always feels that something is missing.
The living facilities will not complain. Every family has a hard lesson to learn. I remember that the toilet in the dormitory building was blocked for a week during the summer vacation. The smell is unbelievable. The canteen is always reluctant to turn on the air conditioner. Min Dahuang has no place to go out of the school gate. The midnight snack is far away and delicious. I envy Zhongbei
By the way, I think the undergraduate and graduate students of China Normal University should be evaluated separately. The style of undergraduate and graduate students is quite different from each other.
Official introduction
