Recently, there has been a heated discussion on the Internet, the source of which is the remarks of Zhang Xuefeng, a famous teacher for the Internet celebrity postgraduate examination: "All liberal arts are called service industries, and they can be summed up as 'licking'." This sentence immediately aroused widespread attention and heated discussions.
On December 9, Zhang Xuefeng responded on Weibo: "Did I say the wrong thing again, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'll give everyone a laugh!."What am I doing, I'm licking too. But I don't think there's anything wrong with that!This self-defeating statement makes people want to know more about what his point of view is.
Zhang Xuefeng further said in the comment area that there is nothing wrong with doing the service industry, but some people can't get over the psychological hurdle. He believes that people who can accept this reality can work in the service industry, otherwise they are not suitable. This remark caused some controversy, and some people thought that he was reminding those who think that certain professions are superior to look at their own essence rationally, especially in the early days of their careers.
In order to express his apology, Zhang Xuefeng also posted a ** wearing a white T-shirt on his personal Weibo, with "I was wrong, I apologize" printed on the front of the clothes. This move was ridiculed by many netizens: "Mr. Zhang, if you turn around, is it written on the back 'dare next time'", and next time it is printed 'I am wrong again'".
In this regard, Ma Liang, a professor at the School of Public Administration of Renmin University of Chinese and a researcher at the National Academy of Development and Strategy, issued a ** response, believing that liberal arts are not "parallel imports".
Ma Liang pointed out: "Mr. Zhang's criticism of liberal arts and self-black liberal arts is more dissatisfied with the liberal arts education and training system. The saying that the liberal arts curriculum is very watery is actually in the hope that this status quo will be changed through the construction of new liberal arts, so that the liberal arts can be strengthened and hardened. ”
He emphasized that there are differences between disciplines, but each discipline has its own value and strengths.
The lack of talent in the liberal arts in the past cannot be a stereotype and a reason to be tinted. He called for a new understanding of the liberal arts, and at the same time, the new liberal arts also need to be strengthened.
Do you think liberal arts are really a "service industry"?The value of liberal arts is in **?Feel free to leave a comment to share your thoughts!
