On the eve of the New Year holiday, Tsinghua University, following Peking University, also released news to consider opening the campus on weekdays and gradually achieve a normalized opening.
Peking University and Tsinghua University have successively announced the promotion of the orderly opening of their campuses.
On December 29, 2023, according to the public WeChat account of “Tsinghua University”, the New Year and winter holidays are coming soon, and Tsinghua University’s series of new measures to expand campus opening will also be “debuted”. Starting from the New Year holiday, Tsinghua University will continue to promote the orderly opening of the campus to better meet the public’s reservation needs for campus visits. It will also take a series of service measures based on the actual situation on campus to strengthen the exchange of cultural resources and improve the public’s visiting experience. .
“Adhering to the principle of responding to social expectations as much as possible, we will do a good job in service guarantee work at different levels and in different categories.” The official in charge of Tsinghua University Office said that the school will actively assume social responsibility , further expand the scope of campus opening to society, simplify admission procedures, and strengthen the aura of high-quality educational resources of Tsinghua University.
According to the school’s latest announcement, Tsinghua University will explore the potential of campus visits while ensuring the normal flow of teaching and research. Based on the upper limit of the campus’s carrying capacity, the number of public campus visits can be reserved. On weekends and holidays, the number of people per day will increase to over 12,000, an increase of about 50% compared to before. At the same time, we will explore options to open the campus on weekdays and gradually realize that the campus will remain open regularly.
Tsinghua University will also improve the admission service platform and integrate and optimize various admission registration systems to make admission reservations easier and faster for all types of personnel; In response to social needs, the appointment period for each open day is adjusted to 8: 00-11:00, 13:00-16:00, the time for receiving tourists to enter the school will be in the morning and every day in the afternoon moved forward by one hour; the method of vehicle access to the school will be optimized, and the management of the school gate area will be strengthened to reduce traffic jams and long queues. In the future, the school will continue to measure and analyze the overall situation of campus personnel mobility, comprehensively consider factors such as on-campus activities and the carrying capacity of the campus, dynamically and scientifically adjust relevant policies, and continuously improve the size and quality of campus opening.
Previously, on December 21, 2023, The Paper learned from Peking University that Peking University continues to promote the orderly opening of the campus and explore the introduction of nationwide study tours that embody the characteristics of the capital and the spirit of Peking University. In order to strengthen the service guarantee of study tours and improve the visiting experience of tourists, Peking University will extend the time for reservations to visit the campus. The time for accepting tourists to campus will be one hour earlier in the morning and afternoon every day, and the departure time will be postponed by one hour in the morning and afternoon every day to maximize the number of visitors. Meet the needs of social staff when entering the school.
Especially when entering the school, Peking University will optimize the entry and exit channels. These include: optimizing the dedicated entrance to the school at the east side gate, establishing a “preliminary screening post” at the far end of the school for active pre-inspection, separating reserved staff and counselors, using chain columns to establish a “queuing area” and “manual screening area.” “; Revival of white space in school. Establish security control areas in the area to improve traffic efficiency. Groups entering the school apply the principle of “vehicle release, school inspection, random staff inspection and special reception”; the east side gate parking lot is set up as a drop-off verification area to achieve the effect of an “entrance in the same direction and exit immediately after drop-off”, and at the same time introduce full volume control to prevent traffic jams at the school gate.
At the same time, Peking University will extend the tour time. In early July, Peking University released an announcement that Peking University would resume reservation access to campus on July 8, 2023. Under normal circumstances, campus visits are open during winter and summer breaks, public holidays and weekends. The daily reservation time slots are: 9:00 a.m. – 11:00 a.m. and 2:00 p.m. – 4:00 p.m. Students must leave school before 7:00 p.m. on the same day. This time, Beijing University explained that in order to improve the tourist experience, the entry time for tourists will be advanced by one hour in the morning and afternoon every day, and the deadline for leaving the campus will be advanced by one hour every day in the morning and afternoon.
An associate professor at Peking University “hurdles” up and down the school, sparking heated discussions about the openness of the campus
Recently, the question of whether university campuses should be open to the public has once again become a hot topic in public opinion. As the article by Li Zhi, associate professor of the Faculty of Engineering, Peking University, about entering and leaving Peking University is widely shared on social media, public opinion also expects more universities to open their doors .
According to an article published by Li Zhi on Zhihu, Peking University now requires facial recognition scanning when entering and exiting the school. However, he has not allowed the school to use his facial recognition information, so his face cannot be scanned. The security guard must check the work ID before entering and leaving the school. Since checking the work ID often takes more than ten seconds, he often climbs directly over the gate barrier and goes in. Most guards know him and usually don’t intercept him.
But when he entered school one day recently, the security guard followed him around campus for a long time. After failing to catch up while running, he rode his bike to catch up. It ended with Li Zhi showing his work ID to the security guard. As he was leaving the school, the security guard stopped him and asked him to scan his face otherwise he would not be able to leave the school. He ended up jumping over hurdles to get out of school.
According to Li Zhi’s article, since 2008 it has been mandatory to check IDs when entering and leaving the Peking University campus. Previously, Peking University could come and go at will. He believes in the article: “Peking University’s security management system has caused great inconvenience to teachers and students. During rush hours, there are often long queues to enter the East Gate of Peking University. The security guards on duty at the gate are very diligent, but this strict defense model does not apply to universities. What we really want to see is that security guards should pay more attention to public places on campus instead of standing at the door. Especially if they go out, it’s unnecessary.
Reporters from The Paper found that since July this year, Peking University, Tsinghua University, Nanjing University, Wuhan University, Huazhong University of Science and Technology and many other universities have successively opened their doors and closed Channels for campus visits have been restored for the first time in nearly four years. Among them, universities such as Peking University do not clearly specify the deadline for opening to the outside world, while universities such as Tsinghua University have set fixed periods for opening the campus to the outside world.
However, it should be noted that the “opening of the school gates” of Peking University and other universities here mainly refers to the opening of visitor channels.
For example, according to a previous announcement from Peking University, starting July 8, 2023, Peking University will resume campus tours by appointment. Under normal circumstances, campus visits are open during winter and summer breaks, public holidays and weekends. The daily reservation time slots are: 9:00 a.m. – 11:00 a.m. and 2:00 p.m. – 4:00 p.m. Students must leave school before 7:00 p.m. on the same day. Both individual and group reservations are subject to quota management. To visit the campus, you can make a real-name reservation through the WeChat applet “Visit Peking University” or scan the WeChat applet code seven days in advance. Groups such as primary and secondary schools and education administration departments that reserve entry to the school can contact the Beijing University Admissions Office, departments or security department ([email protected]) in advance and follow the procedures.
In this regard, The Paper previously called the Tsinghua Security Office and the Security Department of Peking University and learned that Tsinghua opens 4,000 reservations every day and the reservations are full. Peking University’s security department did not provide details on the number of reservations available each day, but only said that the reservation platform will assign numbers every day. Subject to expiry date.
Accompanying these measures, reservation tickets for Tsinghua University and Peking University sold out within seconds and were sold by scalpers. “China Science News” published an article in July this year pointing out that behind these phenomena is a commonly discussed topic: should universities build walls and how can universities be better opened?
