How to arrange campus culture

Is campus culture arranged?

A colleague complained to me: "I have to work overtime again today! Campus culture needs to be arranged again!"

What is "arrangement" Campus culture”? Can culture be arranged? ——This kind of question is probably only asked by laymen. In many schools, this is already commonplace.

The so-called arrangement of campus culture means that the leaders hold a meeting with the grade leaders and ask each grade group to draw up a layout plan for their own corridor. In order to reflect the urgency of the task, some schools usually hold a meeting on Friday evening to inform the matter, and then require each grade group to use the weekend to formulate a plan, prepare materials, and upload the plan on Monday.

This plan has two results: "pass" and "fail and needs rectification". If the plan does not pass, it must be "rectified" until it is passed. For the grade groups that passed the plan, under the leadership of the serious and responsible grade group leaders, the head teachers began to get busy. Some are looking for various pictures on the Internet and printing them, some are printing various large and small characters as required and cutting them, and some are buying various decorative materials after bargaining with sellers on Taobao... Everything is ready, everyone can show off their talents after get off work. . Cutting and pasting; climbing and lowering; coloring and drawing flowers... It is common to work overtime until seven or eight o'clock in the evening, sometimes even ten o'clock in the evening. You may also receive an "unqualified" comment from the leader the next day and require "rectification" instructions. Then I would work overtime again with trepidation.

The campus culture is arranged in this cycle, with themes ranging from "The new semester has begun" to "Celebrating National Day", "Campus Sports Festival", "Merry Christmas", "Celebrating the New Year", "Campus Reading" Festival", and finally came to "Celebrate Children's Day"... On the ceilings, walls, pillars, and student storage cabinet doors of each corridor, colorful colored papers were pasted and peeled off. If you are interested, when you visit some schools, you might as well pay attention to their corridors. There are mottled traces of transparent tape and double-sided tape everywhere, which is ugly.

In fact, in these schools that love to decorate campus culture, all the walls and corridors of the campus are already colorful, and various slogans, color pictures, etc. produced by professional cultural companies are usually posted and hung. Slogans and photos of leaders. The walls in the classroom were filled up by the class teachers according to the leadership's requirements, leaving no empty wall.

The natural landscape of many schools is actually very good now, and you can see red flowers and green willows everywhere in spring. However, for campus cultural arrangements such as "Spring is coming", some schools ask teachers to cut countless paper flowers from colored paper and paste them on the corridor pillars. They buy bunches of plastic flowers from Taobao and insert them at the entrances of each classroom and on the ceilings of the corridors. There are also strips of willow silk on the top, and I asked the art teacher to draw a few big swallows and paste them on the window glass of each class... Can the children really feel spring in this Taobao grocery exhibition every day?

There are many kinds of beauty in the world: the beauty of simplicity, the beauty of simplicity, the beauty of grandeur, the beauty of elegance... Even if all the corridors, aisle walls, and pillars are empty on campus, there is another kind of solemn beauty and solemnity. Beauty, blank beauty. And blank space can actually extend children's feelings, imagination and exploration of beauty to a deeper realm.

Campus culture must be equal to an exhibition of cut-and-paste handmade and cheap Taobao groceries?

Spare the children! Don't let them see such vulgar and overflowing colors all day long, let their pure eyes see the true beauty.

Spare the teachers! Don't let their limited energy and physical strength be invested in such meaningless things, and they may even have to sacrifice their weekends and even New Year's Day holidays to come to school to work overtime to decorate the so-called campus culture.

Culture is a social phenomenon and the product of people’s long-term creation. It is also a historical phenomenon and the accumulation of social history. To be precise, culture is the history, geography, customs, traditional customs, lifestyle, literature and art, behavioral norms, ways of thinking, and values ??of a country or nation that are condensed in matter but free from matter. Concepts, etc., are universally recognized ideologies that can be passed down through communication between humans.

By analogy, "campus culture" should be a school's behavior that has been passed down from generation to generation of teachers and students over several years, decades, or even hundreds of years. It is specific to the school, is different from other schools, and is generally followed by the teachers and students of the school. Etiquette, universal ways of thinking, and universally recognized values.
