1735: Return to Huaqing, Warm Welcome (1 More)
Also left for a year.
It is impossible for Huaqing University to have any major changes because of Xia Xiaolan's absence for a year.
But her return still makes the head of the department happy!
What can I say, the year Xia Xiaolan went to Cornell as an exchange student, her performance was not bad!
"Your transcript has already been handed over from Cornell. Xiaolan, do you know what Cornell thinks of you?"
Xia Xiaolan was stumped by the words of the department chair.
She knew that the evaluation would not be too low, but she was still embarrassed to ask her to praise herself.
"Director, just say it straight, don't tease me!"
"You, everything is fine, but you are anxious, and you should be more calm in the future."
This is not criticism, but love.
At least the head of the department was smiling the whole time when he said this.
As for young students, before they are calm and relaxed, young students should have vigor and energy, the light of the early sun!
The dean picked up several faxes, which turned out to be written by several professors at Cornell School of Architecture.
Words such as "talented" and "excellent" overlap a lot.
In particular, Professor McCarthy praised Xia Xiaolan without hesitation in the letter, and recognized the Huaqing Department of Architecture - the joy of the Dean, may not only be Xia Xiaolan's personal appearance, but Xia Xiaolan went to Cornell to exchange for a year. It has proved the teaching level of Huaqing Architecture Department to foreign universities.
Cornell University's overall ranking is not the first in the United States.
But its architecture undergraduate major is one of the best in the United States.
The head of the department also thinks that the Department of Architecture of Huaqing is very strong, but this is a closed-door self-evaluation. What level is it in the world? No one has come to do this evaluation.
Could the chair of the department be upset that a professor at Cornell School of Architecture has endorsed it so bluntly?
The head of the department was quite sighed. Professor McCarthy said in the letter that he had tried to keep Xia Xiaolan and let Xia Xiaolan complete her studies at Cornell, but Xia Xiaolan refused! McCarthy was very disappointed with Xia Xiaolan's choice, and she was afraid that she was really young and ignorant, and insisting on returning to China would delay her talent-Professor McCarthy's blunt praise, without concealing her own mentality, was nothing more than adding weight to Xia Xiaolan. code.
He hoped that the Department of Architecture of Huaqing would value Xia Xiaolan more, and not let this talented student become obsolete!
Xia Xiaolan also understood McCarthy's intentions, so she remained silent.
No matter how perverted the Great Demon King is, the mind of a professional boss has always been there.
In fact, the big devil doesn't care what skin color, nationality, or method of entering Cornell University. He only saw another outstanding seedling who chose the major of architecture. This seedling did not fall into his hands, but sooner or later would take root in the field of "architecture" and become a member of the continuous development of architecture.
In Hua Guo's words, Xia Xiaolan is a screw in the field of construction.
Tens of thousands of screws have built a mothership of a certain industry. To move forward, the mothership needs all the parts to work together!
Xia Xiaolan admired the big devil's mind and thanked him for his attention.
The head of the department is more complicated.
He was very happy that Xia Xiaolan chose to return to China decisively and was not confused by the flowery world in the United States.
He was afraid that it would really delay Xia Xiaolan's future.
If she stays in the United States, stays at Cornell University, finishes her undergraduate studies, and then studies for a master's degree, according to what the professors of the School of Architecture like for Xia Xiaolan, her studies and career will be very smooth - alas, Xiao Xia's ideological awareness is still very high of.
"You don't have to take the final exam, but I will assign you an assignment. You can write a written material for me about your feelings during your studies at Cornell, such as the differences in the specific teaching mode. Is there any problem?"
There are differences in hardware, and the Huaqing Department of Architecture is definitely not as well funded as the Cornell School of Architecture!
But in terms of software, the head of the department believes that more reference and more learning can be done.
It's not ashamed to learn from the barbarians to control barbarians.
Ouch, I'm wrong, it's mutual exchange and learning, ahem.
This is not a difficult task, Xia Xiaolan readily agreed.
After leaving the department office, several familiar figures were waiting outside.
Xia Xiaolan waved: "Comrades, I, Hu Hansan, are back!"
Waiting outside was naturally 307's roommate, Yang Yonghong, Zhou Limin, Su Jing, Chen Yiyi, Lu Yan and others.
There are eight people in a dormitory, and these five have a better relationship with Xia Xiaolan. As soon as Xia Xiaolan returned to school, they came to block people.
"Liu Liu is still the same, no one can say that he is a big bully, hahaha."
"Go, go back to the bedroom! Your bed is reserved for you."
Embracing left and right, surrounded by several young female college students, Xia Xiaolan felt like she was at the pinnacle of her life at the moment.
"Listen to you, go back to the bedroom and talk about it!"
A year apart, Xia Xiaolan also had a lot to say to her roommates, and in turn, the roommates also had a lot to ask.
Her bed was not occupied, and even the sheets were clean. Apparently, the roommates were maintaining and cleaning for her. Xia Xiaolan doesn't have to take the final exam, but she can choose to live at the school tonight and chat with her roommates at night.
Bedroom 307 was lively until the lights went out.
After all, Xia Xiaolan returned from Cornell as an exchange student, and everyone was curious about her experience in the United States.
There were also people in dormitory 305 who asked her about Ning Xue, Xia Xiaolan was very personable:
"Students are gods wherever they go. Ning Xue has been there for less than a semester, and the professors have fallen in love!"
More people still want to hear Xia Xiaolan talk about the situation in the United States.
Xia Xiaolan didn't have anything to hide, no matter if everyone had plans to study abroad, she could talk a little more, and those who wanted to go abroad should be more prepared. Studying abroad is definitely helpful for personal development, but the United States is not a paradise. Whether you can live a better life through studying abroad depends on how hard you work.
Xia Xiaolan's most impressive few international students.
Xiang Li and Li Yong are both in the same situation.
These two have been very popular for a while. They actively expanded their contacts and became the social center of the circle of Chinese students in New York.
But the two of them didn't win in the end, and they ultimately failed.
This was related to the fact that they annoyed Song Minglan, and it was also related to their own lack of confidence. Xiang Li wanted to take shortcuts, and Li Yong also wanted to take shortcuts, but he didn't focus on his studies. If Xiang Li performs well enough in school, she can rely on her own ability to find a job in the United States, and she will also be able to get an identity in the future! If Li Yong had invested heavily in his studies, he would not have been reported for falsification of the thesis... These two people are completely negative examples.
Positive examples include Xu Jing and Ma Hai.
What's the matter of living hard, they have learned something, if they don't have a real level, Xia Xiaolan will invest in the two when they are full.
A positive example is Qi Wei.
People who can only go abroad to go to a language school first, have they given up?
Did not give up!
I have completely overcome the language barrier, and now I have found a way to enter a law firm for an internship. The next step is to apply for a law school.
Xia Xiaolan took herself out of the story and used a pseudonym. She simply used these people as examples, and the audience was thoughtful.
