Many freshmen are confused about this issue and don't know which aspect to choose.

Student Union -Mind Map

(1) What is the Student Union

The Student Union is the bridge and link between the school and the students. The main areas of serving students are academic development, physical and mental health, social integration, Rights protection, etc. In layman's terms, the student union is a student organization composed of a group of students, responsible for contacting teachers and classmates. Large-scale activities in the college are usually organized by the student union. If experts from outside the school come to the school for research, visit, or work, the student union will be responsible for the reception.

It can be said that the affairs of the student union are very complicated. In order to handle numerous affairs, student unions are usually divided into several departments. Take my own school as an example. There are seven departments in the Student Union: Organization Department, Literature and Art Department, Security and Rights Protection Department, Sports Department, Study Department, Practice Department, and Office. Each department has its own responsibilities and tasks. When considering joining the student union, you can first think clearly about which department you want to join.

1. Exercise yourself

Student union discussion

First of all, joining the student union can exercise our organization The ability to move around and handle emergencies can prevent us from appearing too restrained in the eyes of the public. As a member of the Student Union, you will need to organize many large, medium and small activities, which greatly exercises one's organizational skills. If you haven’t done many things yourself, you won’t know how hard it is. The same goes for organizing activities.

In many cases, events cannot be organized as planned. We need to fully consider all aspects and make adequate preparations in advance. The holding of events is usually not smooth sailing. Sometimes we encounter some emergencies, which test our emergency handling capabilities and response speed. How to coordinate the relationship among the staff when there are internal conflicts or even disputes, how to mobilize the participants to actively participate in the activity when the atmosphere is relatively low in the early stage of the activity, but how to deal with the follow-up issues after the activity... These are all things we need to think about problem. In the process of thinking and dealing with these problems, our personal ability to organize activities and deal with emergencies has also been exercised.

2. Expand our social circle

In addition, in the process of organizing activities, we will meet many students from different colleges and grades, which greatly expands our social circle. breadth and depth. The social circle is very important to a person. Whether we are in school or entering society after graduating from college, a good social circle can make our journey smoother and more stable. Man is a social animal. We need friends, not only because friends can help each other and tide over difficulties together, but also because friends can provide a safe haven for our souls.

Social circle

As a college student, we will have a lot of troubles. When we feel depressed, if we can have a friend to accompany us, listen to our troubles, and soothe our souls , this is such a valuable thing. Moreover, when we encounter something that we cannot solve ourselves, we can also ask for help from our friends around us and gain tremendous strength. In this process, if you are lucky, you may meet the other half of your life and start a beautiful college romance. Of course, everyone has the opportunity to fall in love, but members of the student union have more opportunities because they meet more people. Compared with junior high school, high school and the period after college graduation, college is a better period for love. We have enough time and energy to invest in a simple and throbbing love. When we meet the other half that makes our heart beat, don't hesitate, don't hesitate, bravely express your feelings and be worthy of yourself.

3. Get more information

As we all know, information is a very important material in today's society. On college campuses, there is also a certain information gap, that is, there are some things that you know but others do not, and you will be able to use this information gap to do a lot of things. To give a simple example, if the college recruits three short-term staff members from all students in the college, the salary is excellent, they have country jumps, and they can add operational points (points linked to scholarship selection), first come, first served.

Communication between teachers and students

At this time, since the student union is the bridge between teachers and students, a lot of information is known to the student union members in advance, and sometimes the relevant news is even Recruitment was closed before word spread. Therefore, at this time, student union members are usually better informed and able to know certain information earlier.

Moreover, the source of information is sometimes not just teachers, but also friends around you. Due to the expansion of the social circle as mentioned above, student union members have greater space to obtain information. And in many cases, information can play a big role. When you are looking for a job in your junior or senior years, the role of information becomes even more important.

4. Get more opportunities

Get more opportunities to be discovered

It should be noted that the identity of the student union not only means responsibility and work, And it means more opportunities. Since the members of the student union have devoted a lot of energy and time to many tasks in the college and even the college, they have effectively maintained the normal order of the school. Members of the student union have played important roles in the selection of outstanding students, the selection of advanced individuals, the fight for party membership quotas, and the evaluation of scholarships, etc. There are certain priority principles in terms of aspects. In other words, student union members will have more opportunities. The opportunities here refer not only to participation opportunities in some on-campus activities, but also to recruitment opportunities for some future jobs. In addition, having participated in the college's student union can also be included in your resume when looking for a job in the future. Under normal circumstances, serving as the president of the student union of the college and the president of the school student union can add a lot of color to the resume, among which the president of the school student union plays a more important role. Because generally the people who serve as the presidents of the school student unions are not ordinary people. They are generally students with excellent academic performance and relatively low qualifications. There is only one president of the school student union a year, which will provide us with more opportunities in our future job search.

1. Choose a department that suits you

As mentioned above, students will have different departments. Different departments have different responsibilities, so you should choose the department that suits you, which will also increase your chances of being selected. For example, students who are good at dance and music can join the art department; students who are good at sports can join the physical education class; students who are familiar with using office tools such as Word and Excel can join the office, etc. What suits you is the best.

2. Be fully prepared

Take my personal school as an example. Candidates will be asked to introduce themselves for about 1-2 minutes, and then they will be asked to stay. The senior students made inquiries. You can prepare a self-introduction script in advance. If you are not sure, you can memorize the script. It should be noted that when introducing yourself, you need to briefly introduce some personal information about yourself, and then focus on your understanding of the campaign department and the advantages of running for that department. You can try to think about what kind of people they need to recruit from the perspective of the examiner

3. On-the-spot reaction ability

Students will accept new people

On-the-spot reaction ability It is also very important. There may be many unexpected situations during the interview, and many people will forget their words due to nervousness. At this time, we need to be calm, choose and implement the prepared backup plan. When seniors ask questions that we have not prepared in advance, we also need to have better on-the-spot reaction capabilities. Of course, there is no need to be too nervous, just use your abilities normally.

(4) Notes

Student union staff are essentially ordinary members who are elected from among the members through certain procedures and provide daily services to everyone. Student union staff do not have condescending management rights, nor should they have a sense of superiority to others. Although in some matters, student union members enjoy greater authority than ordinary students, but in essence, student union members are the same as other students, and there is no distinction between superior and inferior. Therefore, they should not use their authority to seek personal gain or treat them condescendingly. other students.

Class cadres can also be called class committee members. Class committee is the abbreviation of class (student) committee, which is composed of class cadres.

Taking my personal school as an example, the class cadres include the squad leader, the league secretary, the study committee, the discipline committee, the literature and art committee, the psychology committee, and the Sutu committee. Among them, the squad leader, league secretary, study committee member, and discipline committee member have more jobs, while the literature and art committee member, psychology committee member, and Sutuo committee member have less work.

The most prominent of which is being able to achieve success with most students in the class harmonious relationship.

Due to the need to handle class affairs, the class cadres need to fully communicate with the classmates in the class, which to a certain extent can help the class cadres and classmates establish a harmonious relationship.

2. Keep in touch with teachers

Communicate with teachers

In addition, becoming a class cadre can also communicate with teachers frequently. Whether they are counselors, teachers, or classroom teachers, class cadres are relieved more than ordinary students. As a witness to students from one generation to another in the school, teachers always have a lot of insights. In the process of communicating with the teacher, if we can be reminded by the teacher, it will be of great significance to us and can provide effective guidance. Different majors have their own professional development status and future trends. These situations are difficult for most students to understand, but through the guidance of teachers, we can see a broader world. If you are a person with ambitions and ideas, you can even try to publish a paper under the recommendation of your teacher. If we can have the help of teachers, it will be less difficult for us to publish papers in newspapers and periodicals.

(3) Things to note

Election PPT

Running for class cadres requires a character that is eager to help others and the patience to explain in detail. The work of class cadres is tedious and meticulous, especially in the first semester of freshman year, there will be a lot of work to do. In the process of handling the work, there will also be many students who do not understand the requirements. Class cadres are required to have a helpful character and answer questions and explanations for students who do not understand. This process requires a lot of patience. In real life, many students are unable to adapt to the work of class cadres because they cannot handle problems patiently. This phenomenon is normal. When encountering this situation, we need to actively adjust our state, recall the promises we made when we ran for class cadres, and find our original intentions. No matter where we arrive, we must never forget where we started from in the first place or the reason why we set out in the first place.

3. Various clubs

Student clubs refer to Various mass cultural, artistic, and academic groups formed by students on a voluntary basis. Regardless of grade, department or even school boundaries, students are composed of students with similar interests and hobbies. Various activities are carried out on the premise of ensuring that students complete their learning tasks and do not affect the normal teaching order of the school. There are many types of clubs in universities, such as environmental protection clubs, photography clubs, dance clubs, calligraphy clubs, Go clubs, etc. Usually one person can join multiple clubs, which adds a lot to our university life. We will meet many things and many people in club activities, and we will continue to grow up in club activities.

University clubs are the main place for college students to develop their personal interests and hobbies, and they are also an important way for us to expand our extracurricular activities. The club provides us with a platform to develop ourselves. Students who have the time and energy to participate in club activities will be able to understand the meaning of the club. Take my personal experience as an example. When I was a freshman, I joined a chess and card club because I liked playing chess. Later, by participating in some chess and card competitions organized by the club, my chess and card skills became better and better.

2. Make some like-minded friends

Under normal circumstances, members within the club gather together because of love. For example, students in the environmental protection club are all students who love environmental protection and are interested in environmental protection. So we can make many like-minded friends. This is very valuable, and the association provides us with this opportunity. In addition, participating in community activities is also a process of understanding yourself and society. In the process of going out for practice, it is a very happy thing to understand the development and changes of society, listen to the joys and sorrows of nature, and be with a few friends. In the future, when we look back on our college years, we will still feel happy when we think about participating in club activities.

3. Enrich your college life

College life is colorful, and the club is to provide us with a variety of college life. A part of the beautiful color.

In a society, staying on means taking charge of the development and innovation of the society in the next year, which requires us to have a full understanding of relevant departmental matters. What we need to know includes the culture of the society, the characteristics of the society, the composition of the society, the management system of the society, etc. These aspects are related to the future development of the society.

2. Highlight your own advantages

Among the many people running to stay in office, how to highlight your own advantages is an issue we need to consider. We can highlight what we have done for the club this year and our feelings about the departmental events we have held. If you have better suggestions for the future development of the society, you can also put them forward. The competition for retention is fierce, and if you just want to win the position, you will often not succeed in retaining it.

3. Lead the development of the society

Before choosing to stay in the society, you need to be aware of leading the development of the society in the future. The role of the person in charge of the association is significant. We need to have certain leadership skills and the ability to organize activities. If we are successfully retained, we should be responsible for the society and the members in the next year.

(4) Notes

Club Discussion

The activities of student clubs are based on the premise of ensuring the completion of students' learning tasks and not affecting the normal teaching order of the school; It is a principle that is beneficial to the healthy growth of students and beneficial to the progress of various work in the school. The purpose of student club organizations and activities is to activate the learning atmosphere of the school, improve students' independent management capabilities, and enrich students' extracurricular life. Student associations can use students' spare time to carry out various activities according to the different conditions of the school to exchange ideas, compare skills, inspire each other and enhance friendship. In college, we need to correctly handle the relationship between club activities and the learning process, not only learning our own professional knowledge, but also not neglecting club activities.

Conclusion:

Participating in student unions, class cadres, and various societies has many benefits, and these benefits are multifaceted. We will become more confident and mature. But everything has its pros and cons, and we need to make decisions carefully and carefully consider many influencing factors. After making up your mind, move forward firmly and you will be a better self at the end of the road. "No matter how far the road is, you can always reach it if you keep moving forward." At the same time, it should be noted that as college students, our main job is still to study. No matter what position we hold, we must not forget our original intention and mission of learning. There is no conflict between position and study. We can handle the relationship between the two.
