Students,You cant move out now_文教Education
last month, the ministry of education came up with a new policy to stop college students from finding housing off campus. but, it’s the new semester, and the off-campus housing market still seems to be doing well around universities in various cities.
in beijing, liu qian, of the zhongdi hengyuan real estate agency, said, "so far, more than 500 college students have come to rent houses. the figure is almost unchanged from last year." the agency is near zhongguancun, the university district.
in nanjing, at nanjing university, the flat hunting figures are even higher.
according to song yunya, a senior, "over a third of the seniors have moved off campus. it’s no different from in the past."
other examples can be found in guangzhou. even though there is a provincial policy saying that students who break the regulation can be penalized or even expelled from school, business is brisk at xiadu village, a popular college student housing spot.
"there are around 200 houses available and over 90 per cent of them have been rented," said shi changchun, a landlord in xiadu.
the discussion about the ministry’s new policy has spread. some students say that universities have no right to interfere with their right to decide where to live.
others say that, if the school wants them to live on campus, it should try to improve living conditions there.
according to cai, a senior at beijing foreign studies university, finding a good, quiet place to study at the university is difficult. the classrooms are too noisy. the library could be a good choice, but there is limited seating.
power is another problem for students like cai. the lights go off at 11:30 pm but she wants to study later.
"i’ll move back if there’s a better environment on campus, " she said.
in fact, universities have responded in different ways to this.
southwest jiaotong university in sichuan province, for one, has declared that the students have to get back on campus.
"some accidents have happened to students living outside. they should understand that the new policy was made to guarantee their safety," said che wei, vice general manager of the school’s logistics office.
and, some administrators say they’re worried.
"some students live outside for cohabitation, which is a serious problem," said yang jirui, vice president of sichuan university.
and, yang added, living on campus provided a chance for students to develop communication skills.
meanwhile, in nanjing and guangdong, many universities haven’t gone so far as to force the students to return.
"it’s difficult to find out the truth," said a teacher at guangdong foreign studies university. "when we go to check in the dormitory, the students have different excuses to explain where their roommates are.
then, there are those teachers who say that students might benefit from living off campus.
"it may help them study more efficiently and develop their independence," said one student counselor at nanjing university.
