The leisurely life of rebirth

Chapter 540 Planning for a Doctoral Degree

Professor Wang thought for a long time.

To be honest, I have no experience.

Not only was he inexperienced, most of the teachers and school executives were inexperienced.

It’s not one of those top ten prestigious schools with a lot of alumni giving back to the school.

Luzhou University is just a very ordinary 211 university. It is good enough for everyone to have a job after graduation.

Besides, as a comprehensive university, there are not many entrepreneurs.

Everyone is barely making ends meet, and even those who work in the workplace cannot come up with cash donations.

"Or should we follow the library's standards?"

Zhou You shook his head: "No, there is still some difference. The support standard is slightly lowered, and only individuals are supported, not families."

"Well, this is fine. Otherwise, the coverage is too large and it will be difficult to manage." Professor Wang considered it more comprehensively.

It is a good thing for students to enjoy subsidies.

However, for some school staff, they don’t care so much. This is equivalent to increasing their workload.

Even if you don't say it, you will feel resentful in your heart.

Human nature is what it is.

"Have you figured out how to run the business? Hand it over to the school?"

Zhou You smiled and said, "Teacher, those people in the administration are all big shots. Sometimes I feel like they are even more powerful than our teachers. I don't know who spoiled them!"

"Not to mention who is better, at least they are all about the same. How dare you block the teacher?"

Professor Wang couldn't help laughing: "Someone is blocking you? Who dares to block you?"

"It didn't stop me, a young guy who just joined the job, and he messed around with Wang Yunyue and said shamelessly that school teachers are supposed to be in charge. He really thought they were junior high school and high school teachers." Zhou You was a little angry.

University teachers and professors are all responsible for teaching and educating people, and they are required to specialize in professional knowledge. Of course, this does not include people like Zhou You.

Who knew that I would be teased by others?

Efficient administration is supposed to only provide support and logistical services to university teachers.

but,

I don't know when it started, but the taste gradually changed.

Some administrative staff in colleges and universities have gradually become arrogant and started to abuse their power in various aspects such as course arrangements, daily activities, and expense reimbursement.

Professor Wang doesn't care. As a veteran, young people don't dare to stop him.

Also, the school wanted him to be the dean of the School of Management, but he declined.
Library science has not been separated out as a separate major, but is considered a major in the School of Management. Generally speaking, the dean is usually the director of a large department, and library science has never been the dean.

Even though they all have Bachelor of Management degrees, their value is different.

"Haha, guess why?" Professor Wang said mischievously.

Zhou You smiled and said, "Teacher, I know that these administrative staff have backgrounds. I'm not stupid."

"Yes, originally they were all working. Teachers did research and administrators provided support. But who would have thought that everything changed later." Professor Wang was a little sad. Times have really changed.

In the past, when teachers did research, they didn’t need anyone to urge them. They did it on their own initiative. They studied topics that interested them and had a sense of mission.

The same goes for administrative staff, they should do their jobs well and ensure the normal operation of the campus.

But I didn't know that everything changed later.

For teachers, research has become just a formality, and administrative positions have become a stepping stone!

Universities have high levels and few administrative staff. After working here for a few years, you can be promoted quickly and then transferred to local areas. It is definitely a quick and easy path.

There are also many people who seek the ease and high status of university life, as well as the winter and summer vacations. A large number of people are also arranged to come here since there are no exams anyway.

They all have connections and backgrounds, how can they be the same as the original people?

You have to bear it if it doesn't work. Go and ask the principal to help you!
However, those people are not stupid and they know who they can and cannot mess with.

Others have channels to find out, unlike newcomers who are completely in the dark and know nothing, and may accidentally offend someone.

Everyone knows what's going on when traveling around, so naturally no one would be so blind as to offend him.

But it’s hard to say for those young counselors. Counselors sound funny, but they are basically at the lowest end of the university ecological chain.

There are upward channels, but they are very narrow. There is no need for some other logistics channels that have not been raised. Just do your job well.

This is a very embarrassing situation. There is no hope at all. Fortunately, there is a glimmer of hope, like a carrot falling in front of you. Will you do it or not?

It arouses all your human desires at once.

Just like Wang Yunyue, who found an opportunity last time to talk to Zhou You about her future path.

There aren't many ways actually.

Can a counselor continue to work for a lifetime?
Either you study for a PhD part-time and see if you can become a teacher in the future, or you go into administration.

So Wang Yunyue now works part-time in administration.

Yes, it is a part-time job. I have to work as a counselor and as an administrator!
I'm really exhausted lately.

If it weren't for library science, I wouldn't have to worry about this. I would have arranged for students to do the work, and I wouldn't have the energy to do administrative work part-time.

Just think about how miserable the other counselors are!
"Teacher, I was thinking that Wang Yunyue is also working in administration now. It turns out that she has also done this in our major. Now we should continue to give her some responsibilities and let her coordinate the whole school. Anyway, she is familiar with counselors from other majors." Zhou You said with a smile.

This is a good thing, of course it is a good thing!

This is something that many people cannot get no matter how hard they try. This is the political achievement, and everyone involved will enjoy some invisible benefits.

Professor Wang did not speak. He thought for a moment and said, "Yunyue is now in charge of our college. If she is in charge of the whole school, it may be a bit difficult. But can you do this? First, let her be in charge of our college, and then roll her out to the whole school next year."

"There is an advantage to this. When the time comes, we can let Wang Yunyue continue to be in charge of this matter. She can also be transferred to the school office platform, which is also a good thing for young people!"

Zhou You gave Professor Wang a thumbs up and said, "Teacher, you are the one who thinks things through. I am not like that. I am still too naive."

I have to flatter someone in such an explicit way, otherwise how would others know that I am flattering them?

It's a great honor for you to have a billionaire flatter you, right?
Professor Wang stepped forward and gave Zhou You a light slap. He was reluctant to really hit him because he was his favorite disciple after all.
"You, the teacher has to take the blame for you every day, but your actions are getting bigger and bigger, and the teacher can't bear it anymore."

"If you can't carry it, who can? The name of this fund is called Library Science Fund." Zhou You laughed.

People want their children to be successful. Does this count as pushing the teacher to improve himself?
"Also, teacher, if you can't do it, just take over this position as the dean. This will make it easier for you to get along in school in the future!"

Zhou You is really pushing this!

Professor Wang looked at Zhou You speechlessly.

This kid is really capable of causing trouble.

This is to work yourself to death. Now as a professor and the head of library science, don't be too comfortable.

My qualifications are enough, even if I am the dean of the college, there are too many troubles.

It’s so annoying to have meetings all the time.

Zhou You knew his teacher's character and couldn't help but urged, "Teacher, don't be afraid of trouble. When the time comes, you will be the dean. If you don't want to hold a meeting, don't hold it. It's up to you!"

"As for the meetings in school, there are not many. In case you are not free, you can find someone to attend on your behalf." Zhou You kept fooling around.

Everyone else was rushing to do it, but when it came to my teacher, he became more and more Buddhist.

Professor Wang said helplessly: "You can be the dean if you want to. Last time, he just said so. What if it was just a polite remark?"

After that, he paused for a few seconds and said in a low voice:
"The teacher is old. If I were younger, I would have taken the initiative to find the principal if he had come to me. It's really because of my age that I have lost many of my ambitions."

After saying this, he seemed to be lost in memories.

When you are young, who doesn’t want to do something successful? But bad luck just comes.

It is a niche major and is not taken seriously by the school. It is enough as long as it does not hold us back. There is no need to think about anything else.

Zhou You understood that, in the eyes of outsiders, being a university professor was already very impressive, but that also depended on specialties.

He was also very clear about the situation of his major, otherwise he would not have chosen to work in sales. It was because he saw his mentor's performance and realized that he might not be as good as his mentor in the future.

I want to go out and give it a try.

"Teacher, you are still young and you will work for at least 10 years. In the coming years, I have a wish, which is to get a doctoral degree in our major." Zhou You continued to make promises to the teacher.

In fact, this is also one of Zhou You’s wishes.

Since I'm working here, I still hope that everything will be more complete, which will be beneficial to both teachers and students.

When Professor Wang heard this, he immediately became alert.

If you talk about this person, I always have some thoughts about him.

Professor Wang just wants to set up a doctoral program. Otherwise, it would be great if his own students could study for their own doctorates, so there would be no need to hire someone.

"That's possible. I was just thinking of taking some time to talk to you. Actually, if we try hard, it's not impossible."

“It’s mainly about the faculty and the results.”

"We have no shortage of money in our profession, but we lack project results. Do you want to produce more results and publish a few papers?"

After saying this, Professor Wang looked at his students expectantly.

All the other teachers have become incompetent, and only his beloved disciple can hold on.

Zhou You was so scared that he stood up immediately, his face changed: "Teacher, I can pay you, but forget about doing research, my brain can't keep up."

Just kidding, research is that easy to do.

It is also difficult to achieve results in liberal arts.

Professor Wang knew this was the case, otherwise why would he lie down? It was all because of this traitor who started it.

"But, teacher, I can give a little more money. According to the requirements for applying for a doctoral program, we will give money to those who produce results. In addition, we will fully support the project without letting the teachers spend a penny."

"Besides, it would be a waste if we didn't use all these graduate students."

The wandering little devil pops up and spends money.

Good universities are also built by spending money. Although liberal arts don’t cost much, you still need to invest.

Professor Wang was tickled by Zhou You's words.
"Okay, I'll go find the principal later and tell him about your donation. This is also his political achievement. How much is it?"

Zhou You shook his head: "I don't know either. How about donating 10 million at a time and then we can figure it out after we use it up?"

"Well, that's it. Don't donate too much at once. Donate slowly and steadily."

"This way, even if the principal changes in the future, it won't be a one-time deal," said Professor Wang.

Zhou You curled his lips and smiled, the teacher was really cunning.

Now the principal has left because he was too full, and the next principal won’t be able to eat, so he also has complaints.

Every time someone comes along, they want to come up with something new.

As time goes by, there really is no innovation. This is also the reason why many people in the system, including the big guys, are getting more and more tired.

All the work is about dealing with innovation.

"Okay, I'll listen to you, teacher." Zhou You had no objection at all. He was only responsible for paying the money.

Professor Wang thought for a moment and continued, "What if, what if, I become the dean? Who would you choose as the most suitable person to be in charge of this department?"

Travel around
"Teacher, it's inappropriate for you to tell me about such a big thing. Anyway, just don't look for me."

"Forget it. You don't know whether it's a blessing or a curse. I'll hold an internal meeting. If you're free, attend. It's okay if you don't want to attend. I'll tell you the incentive policy and see how much money is appropriate. Get the doctoral degree first."

Professor Wang was full of energy and determination when he said this. He hadn't been so motivated in many years.

By then, all the teachers in the library will benefit, and their professional title evaluations will be more favorable.

It will also make you more prestigious when you go out.

When introducing yourself, just say: doctoral supervisor!
This is not much better than being a graduate student supervisor.

"By the way, teacher, I plan to invite Li Hong to give a speech in our library. I met him in Wuzhen last time. He is also from our major." Zhou You thought about it and decided that since he had decided to build momentum for the teacher, this one might not make a difference.

Professor Wang stopped talking and looked at his students.

When he was in school, I didn't notice it at all. I thought he was an honest kid and wanted to help him.

But I would have thought that after graduation, I would be doing better and better.

These Internet tycoons used to give speeches at schools, but that was in the past.

And most of them went to top prestigious universities, but I have never been to my school.

Whether or not people recognize a major depends on the other person, otherwise, there would be so many library science graduates but not a single one would be invited.

“Will it be the scale of the entire school or our major?” Professor Wang was a little unsure.

"It's up to you. You can talk to the principal. There won't be any problems. I'll invite the people." Zhou You laughed.

It’s okay if you are not famous, as long as the people you attract become famous.

"Okay, kid, I'll go talk to you, don't show up." Professor Wang said happily. How could he not be happy? He said he didn't want to do it.

It’s because I’m afraid of causing trouble to my students.

This is called contentment!

Who would have thought that this kid would actually spend a doctor's money to buy himself a cake. He really wants to eat it.

I believe the principal also wants to eat it, not to mention donating money.

Such a large-scale donation is rare in the school's history.

Zhou You went back home leisurely. In a few years, he would be a professor, and maybe he would be able to supervise doctoral students by then.

Get a job as a doctoral supervisor.

Yes, that’s right. I will go back and give the two graduate students the responsibility of working on the research projects.

There is still time, I will study for a doctorate as a teacher in the future! (End of this chapter)
