"the counselors we recruit are the ones who are required by the ministry of education to do student ideological and political work, not dormitory managers as netizens understand. it's just that the current counselors in our school have to do some student management work such as night shifts in the dormitory, and they take turns on duty. they are not dormitory managers, but college counselors, this is certain."

the staff member also said: "for positions like (counselors), we provide resettlement allowances. will the school provide resettlement allowances to dormitory managers? of course not, right? they are phds introduced by the school. it's just that some phds are engaged in teaching assistance, some are engaged in teaching and scientific research, and they are engaged in counselors."
