on september 2, a student from yancheng normal university posted a video saying that the school outsourced the air conditioner outdoor unit, and the price of the old air conditioner that had been used for five or six years increased from less than 400 yuan per year to 420 yuan per year, and the forced rental period was three years. in addition, the outsourced staff had a poor service attitude, which caused dissatisfaction among many students. (global times, september 3)
after reviewing the reports, we can find that the price increase is due to the replacement of new air conditioners, but not all of them have been replaced yet, resulting in the situation of "old air conditioners at new prices"; in response to the poor attitude of the service staff, the school said that it has contacted the company to increase the number of maintenance workers and improve maintenance efficiency. however, in addition to this, the problem also focuses on the school outsourcing dormitory air conditioning, requiring students to pay for air conditioning use, forcing students to rent until graduation, and protecting students' right to know and right to choose.
regarding the issue of outsourcing air conditioners, a staff member of the school's bidding management office admitted that the cost of installing air conditioners is a great pressure for the school, so in recent years, the school has been outsourcing the rental service of air conditioners in student dormitories so that students can use air conditioners. if the above statement is true, the school's outsourcing of air conditioners is a measure to facilitate students; it is also logical for the outsourcing unit to charge rental fees.
in people's minds, business is about "willing to buy and willing to sell" and "payment and delivery". in the above case, students are forced to rent until graduation and pay several years' rent at one time, which is unacceptable. not to mention that such "unfair terms" will increase the financial burden on students; charging fees in advance also has the suspicion of making students pay in advance for services that they have not yet enjoyed in the future.
although the school emphasizes that "there should be a certain refund mechanism" for senior year internships that do not require the use of air conditioners, the necessity and rationality of charging a one-time rental fee are questionable. if there is a dispute or other unforeseen circumstances in the future due to the rental of air conditioners, wouldn't the students who paid the money be in a passive position?
most college students are adults, and they have their own independent thinking and judgment when they encounter problems. the above-mentioned air conditioner rental problem was caused by insufficient communication beforehand. as a school that teaches and educates people, facing the vital interests of students, it might as well put itself in their shoes, be more understanding, and communicate more, and don't let unintentional events become "troublesome matters."
