"It will take a short year to do something unforgettable!" On July 16, the reporter learned that the 18th Northeast University Graduate Education League recently went on an expedition, and 23 members from 10 colleges and departments vowed with fervor. Since 2006, a total of 112 members of the postgraduate education support group of East University have gone to Zhaosu, Xinjiang, Burqin, Sichuan Santai, Jiangxi Communist Youth League, Changning, Yunnan and other places to provide education support services. With more than 80000 hours of service in 10 years, there are nearly 10000 beneficiaries.
"Volunteer education changes itself much more than others. Although the living conditions of volunteer education are bitter, what we gain is happiness." This is the speech of Zhang Borui, a member of the 17th Graduate Volunteer Education League. In September 2014, Zhang Borui, who was at the crossroads of postgraduate entrance examination in Hong Kong, high paying employment, and graduate guarantee in his alma mater, unintentionally walked into the story sharing meeting of the 16th Graduate Student Teaching Group. "Compared with success, what we need more is growth. The words of the elder enlightened me." After the meeting, Zhang Borui submitted the application form without hesitation.
In the past 10 years, a group of East Asian college students who shine with idealism have walked into the mountains with the rain and dew of knowledge. Xinjiang Hemuhanas Mongolian Ethnic Township Primary School is located in the northwest corner of China. There are more than 130 minority students in this school, who have never left the local area for several generations and live the life of herding cattle and sheep like their parents. There are also schools like this in the northwest of Xinjiang, and these schools are also the places where Liu Lei, the head of the 16th Youth League, and his teammates are most concerned and nostalgic.
One year of volunteer education, they have traveled 2000 kilometers of mountain roads to 19 primary and secondary schools in the county for volunteer education. Level 7 wind, 30 degree temperature difference, snow blocking roads, sandstorms, cliffs and rocks sliding, all of which could not stop the six young volunteers from feeling hot inside. Roza Berkbek, a Kazakh girl, said that before the volunteer teachers came, she never thought that there was another world behind the mountains. Every time the volunteer teacher wants to leave, he is very reluctant.
In addition to completing the teaching work, the postgraduate teaching group also gives play to its professional expertise to support and serve the local development. They developed office software such as student comprehensive management system and library management system for Xinjiang Burqin High School; Hold lectures on practical knowledge of "Internet+" operation, and use the Internet platform to launch new media marketing of featured agricultural and sideline products and tourism resources; It created the "Rainbow Supermarket of Northeast University", launched the "Xinjiang Love Tianjin Travel" public welfare student fund, and raised more than 4000 pieces of clothing and 70000 yuan of student aid to the society.
Last September, a sudden rainstorm hit Changning County, Baoshan City, Yunnan Province, and more than 15000 people were affected. Six students from the 17th Postgraduate Teaching Group quickly formed a "Little Red Riding Hood" volunteer service team and rushed to the disaster relief site as soon as possible. In 72 golden hours, they set up 52 tents and participated in disinfection, epidemic prevention and psychological counseling before they had a rest... "Little Red Riding Hood" let the villagers in the mountain area see the strength of youth to work together.
The great thing about love is that the more you share, the richer you will be. The extraordinary thing about dreams is that the more persistent you are, the more beautiful you will be. In the past 10 years, the banner of dedication and fraternity has led East University students to stick to where education is most needed. "When we are 80 years old, we will smile when we remember what we did in our youth, which is the meaning of volunteer education," said the young men of the volunteer education group.
