There is no such thing as a free breakfast?Early risers have

It's someone else's school again. According to **, every morning from December 1 to 31, Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics launched 700 "penny love energy breakfasts" in ten canteens on three campuses. Coincidentally, Nanjing University of Finance and Economics has recently launched a "free breakfast", from November 22 to the end of the semester, 200 copies will be distributed to students every day, and students will start at 6:30 to the designated window to swipe the campus card, campus card*** or swipe their face to receive.

This kind of "free breakfast" mainly serves students who get up early, as for why students get up early, I believe many people will give the same answer at the first time - these people must be good students who work hard to Xi. Colleges and universities have launched "free breakfast", to put it mildly, to give students a special reward;In general, it is to cultivate a style of study, so as to guide students to focus on their Xi.

However, such measures by the two universities appear to be short-term policies, with Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics ending at the end of December, while Nanjing University of Finance and Economics has a similar policy until the end of the semester. Why is there such a setup?From the perspective of the practicability of the policy, it may be that the severe winter is approaching, the temperature drops, and the enthusiasm of students to get up early will inevitably be affected, so the value of the "free breakfast" incentive at this node will be greater.

Of course, there is also a possibility that this is just a temporary idea, and colleges and universities are unsure whether the policy can accurately serve the students they want to motivate, and if they cannot achieve the expected goals, they may completely terminate such an attempt. If you think about it, it's not impossible. For example, some students from difficult families will have a greater incentive to enjoy the "free breakfast", if this is the case, will it deviate from the original intention of the university?This is not to say that this part of the students should not be supported, but only that perhaps in the imagination of universities, "free breakfast" is an incentive rather than a subsidized action - the object of accepting "free breakfast" is first of all a group of students who can get up early and love to Xi, and colleges do not want students to just want to receive such a breakfast for free, especially not to accept to continue to sleep in the dormitory after eating.

Another reality of this exploration, perhaps in the eyes of the outside world, is that "free breakfast" needs to be supported by a corresponding cost. University canteens are generally market-oriented, and colleges and universities can certainly make "free breakfast" through subsidies, but after all, it involves money, and whether colleges and universities have the will and ability to do such a thing, I'm afraid there is a question mark. It is difficult for us to give a clear answer to whether it is feasible to take out a little money to make a "free breakfast", if we simply calculate the accounts, even if we do it all year round, the cost will not be too large, and the school budget will be moved, and it must be easy to solve the problem of money. Of course, the situation may be more complicated, and this analysis may be wishful thinking, after all, if it were that simple, there might have been similar attempts by universities long ago.

The "free breakfast" policy of the two universities has given me some other implications, that is, outside donations to universities may be explored in this practical direction. In the past, we have seen a lot of alumni donations to the school, and everyone is mainly concerned about the amount of donations, and as for how the money is spent, the attention is much lower. Imagine, if alumni donate to set up a "free breakfast", it must also be a good attempt, although the amount of donation is not too large, but the effect is visible, and the benefits that the younger students get can be seen.

Whether it is to reward students who love to learn and Xi, or to subsidize students with financial difficulties, it is very necessary, and I personally feel that the "free breakfast" to motivate whom, this question is actually irrelevant, there is no need to look at the problem too carefully. What's more, if incentives are strengthened to cultivate the style of study in colleges and universities, some new policies can also be set. For example, Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics, the school's "free breakfast" stipulates that if a student's GPA is 4 this semester, they can also receive the "exclusive benefits for top students" of customized insulated lunch boxes or thermos cups. It seems that the reward is a little smaller, but this is indeed a direction, and if you follow this line of thought, set the "exclusive benefits for top students" as a big meal, I believe it will be more meaningful.
