What are the discounts for word-of-mouth college students?

The status of college students is quite special in itself. While exploring life at low cost on campus, they also enjoy preferential treatment from society.

On the other hand, as the main force of future consumption, many businesses have also introduced many preferential policies for college students, albeit with the purpose of cultivating their consumption habits.

As a junior student who just participated in the graduation ceremony last week, it is very heartbreaking to write this article. After all, when I discovered these discounts, my college years had quietly come to an end.

But it doesn’t matter. The teachers, brothers and sisters tearfully summarized the experiences of college students, covering many aspects of food, clothing, housing, transportation and fun. I hope it will be helpful to the brothers and sisters who are still in college.

P.s: The writing is incomplete, welcome to add! !

Library & Campus Network

When I was a freshman or sophomore, I often thought about a question: where did our college tuition go? A teacher told us in a class :Library system.

The library itself is a palace of knowledge. In addition to the paper books placed on the bookshelves, there are also e-book resources, and the most precious thing is the existence of the campus network.
