Refusing college students to stay in dorms, pointless formalism and unnecessary fuss

[Hughes]

Recently, some students at Guangxi University of Science and Technology Vocational College posted videos claiming that the school stipulates that even if there are no classes, students are not allowed to stay in the dormitories, forcing many students to stay on campus in the rain. The video shows several students holding umbrellas wandering outside in the rain, and some students sitting directly outdoors on stools. The poster expressed helplessness and asked, “It’s raining outside, where should we go?”

  On the morning of October 31, a student from Guangxi University of Science and Technology Vocational College told a reporter that the school rules prohibit first-year students from returning to the dormitory before 8 a.m. even if they have no classes, and second- and third-year students can only return if they have no classes. In the afternoon of the 31st, the reporter contacted the Student Affairs Office of Guangxi University of Science and Technology Vocational College, and staff members said that the school does have such regulations. “Freshmen just arrived, so the management is definitely stricter. Otherwise, if they become lazy later, there’s nothing we can do. (These rules are) to help them develop good habits,” said the staff member. He explained that first-year students need to develop the habit of waking up early, “Otherwise, if they have classes at 8:30, and they don’t go, how is that acceptable?” He also mentioned that leaving the dormitory at 8 o’clock is not considered early because classes are about to start. “This regulation applies from Monday to Friday, not on weekends. Students are required to leave the dormitory at the designated time. The regulation for second- and third-year students to leave the dormitory is to help them exercise, such as waking up at 8 a.m. to do about 40 minutes of exercise before returning.” In recent years, colleges and universities have gradually become more high school-like. They strengthen control over seemingly trivial details, such as not allowing the installation of bed curtains and setting access control times, attempting to restrict students’ relative freedom to indulge and prevent them from broadly engaging with social realities and the increasingly sharp class struggles. This also shows that the repression using Confucian methods by middle-level institutions is increasingly unsustainable; it cannot hide the truth. Capitalist society is increasingly on the brink of collapse. The more they try to suppress and enslave students with Confucian tactics, the more students will resist. With the high schoolization of universities in recent years, students who once thought university would be carefree are gradually developing dissatisfaction with society. Wherever there is oppression, there will be resistance.

The middle school system is like this: nowadays, universities are increasingly developing in the direction of high schools. If this continues, more and more students will be dissatisfied with the middle school system.

From the so-called “university without walls” over a decade ago to today, where you can’t enter without checking in, even students are being manipulated (the pandemic period indeed provided a good excuse for Zhongxiu, greatly accelerating the fascistization process), sometimes banning “Food Festival Street,” sometimes closing xx campus gates, sometimes requiring facial recognition to enter dormitories, all show that Zhongxiu has long been transforming relatively free universities (compared to high schools) into places of fascist dictatorship for various economic and political interests. The university-high schoolization has apparently become a persistent trend in Nazi China.

Middle School Education always claims to be a place where “teaching and nurturing people” and “allowing students to develop comprehensively.” But in reality, it is always a place where the bourgeois ideology is forcibly imposed on students for ideological control. When their words and actions can no longer deceive students, they simply resort to physical violence to oppress them. Bourgeois schools do not allow students to have their own thoughts, but they cannot prevent it; they can only guide students to engage in meaningless speculation. Teachers, through the so-called “power” bestowed by the ruling class, use various methods to persecute students. Sometimes, the oppression of students in schools is even more severe than the oppression of soldiers in the army. For example, in incidents of campus violence or student deaths, schools mobilize all their efforts to silence witnesses or directly collaborate with the police to suppress justice-seeking demands that hold the school accountable. I remember my friend told me about his university, a certain university in Chongqing. After a female student was raped by an external teacher, she attempted suicide, but was ultimately stopped and intimidated by the school, making her afraid to speak out. After a period of time, the girl, deeply traumatized and persecuted, ultimately took her own life. The school then forced or paid witnesses to testify falsely, claiming that the girl was assaulted by migrant workers who had come to the school to do repairs, and they could not find the person anymore. Sometimes, Middle School Education schools are no different from concentration camps.
