Chapter 338： herd mentality
The fourth update today, please recommend, please subscribe!
On September 15th, the hustle and bustle of the start of school finally came to an end, and the excitement of the homecoming dance was still spreading in the air of Cambridge Town.
With TOEFL's presence at Harvard and MIT, the town of Cambridge is always buzzing every September. College freshmen fill every corner of this small town, bringing a whole new vibe to the university. And other college students with senior qualifications will always look at all this with a joke or a dull look, because they know that Harvard University and MIT are not easy universities, and entering the university does not mean happiness, but means heavy schoolwork and endless hard study. The vigor of the freshman will always be worn out a little bit in the future college life.
For this, psychology students see more thoroughly. It is always easy for people to equate the new environment with the new life, but people always ignore that the new environment is also associated with changes and challenges. Therefore, students in the Department of Psychology always like to see the emotional changes of freshmen when they find the gap between ideal and reality, and always feel a sense of accomplishment, and even observe freshmen as a research topic. Others say that psychology students are a bit abnormal, and Evan Bell thinks it makes sense.
This time, as Jason Mraz was preparing for his new album, he asked Evan Bell to be the producer of his album, but Evan Bell declined. Evan Bell is well aware that he can make his own album mainly because he knows himself well. In the real position of producer, he is still too young, and there are still many things to learn. So Evan Bell recommended Jason Mraz himself as the producer of the album, and he just assisted. As a music wizard, Jason Majes's talent and ability cannot be ignored, and he is definitely the most suitable candidate to produce his own album.
Since returning from the backpacking trip, Evan Bell has not had any leisure time, until after the end of the half-month publicity, he finally completed things temporarily and returned to campus life with Teddy Bell. In fact, Evan Bell will return at the end of August, also because school is about to start. His university diploma has not been received yet, and the life of a master's student has begun.
After arriving at the school, in addition to the crowd of freshmen, the biggest change for Evan Bell is that all three roommates have changed. Eden Hudson directly "occupied the dove's nest" and moved into No. 11 Princes Street. When the Bell brothers were not at home, he shouldered the responsibility of the patron saint of No.11 Princes Street.
Back in the unfamiliar and familiar dormitory, the other three roommates have not yet moved in. I don't know if they are freshmen or old students who have changed dormitory. However, Evan Bell did not have time to worry about his new roommate, because he had to devote himself to the preparation of basic psychology lessons. For Evan Bell, graduate schoolwork couldn't be easier, but he had to take the big A basic psychology course is something that must be taken seriously. Teachers, the role of teaching and educating people, is not a good thing to misunderstand children, not to mention basic psychology is a compulsory basic course for all students of the psychology department, all students!
In graduate school, Evan Bell is indeed very relaxed. Wendy let Evan Bell devote himself to the design of the drawings for the reconstruction of the World Trade Center. He was not assigned any tasks this semester; Evan-Bell was given the task of a dissertation, and the topic was picked by Evan-Bell himself, but it must be in the field of applied psychology-Evan-Bell is studying for a master's degree in applied psychology. Mueller-Lance was very vocal, demanding that the quality of the paper be no less than his graduation thesis. Fortunately, Muller-Lance knew Evan Bell's self-consciousness and did not set a completion time.
So, as soon as he got back to school, Evan Bell devoted all his energy to the preparation of basic psychology lessons.
In fact, the Department of Psychology can be divided into three second-level disciplines: Basic Psychology, Developmental and Educational Psychology, and Applied Psychology, but no matter which research field it is, the basic psychology in the freshman year is a compulsory subject. It can be said to be the introductory basis of psychology.
The William James Teaching Building is the main teaching building of the Department of Psychology. This teaching building, named after William James, one of the founders of the American Psychological Association, has a history of nearly a hundred years. It is not only the location of the undergraduate and graduate offices of the Department of Psychology, but also has many classrooms, including several super-large lecture halls that can accommodate 300 people. Most of the compulsory public courses for freshmen and sophomores are taught here.
Sitting in the first amphitheatre on the first floor, you can see the pine forest and the low shrubbery outside through the window, and the ancient buildings behind are looming through the gaps between the trees. On the campus, there is indeed a feeling of scenery everywhere, which makes it easy for people to calm down and enter the world of learning.
Beginning at 1:30 in the afternoon on Monday, people in the first amphitheatre entered the classroom one after another, and began to occupy the powerful terrain in the front row. In a large classroom, if you want to listen to the class seriously, the front row position is very popular. At two o'clock today, the first basic psychology class of the new semester will start. Everyone hopes to leave a good impression on the professor.
Before two o'clock, the entire amphitheatre was almost full. In addition to the students from the Department of Psychology, there were also auditors from other departments. The amphitheatre that could accommodate 300 people would soon run out of seats. But after two o'clock, there were still students trotting into the classroom and found that the professor hadn't arrived yet. Treat yourself late.
At 2:15, even the aisle stairs were almost full, but the professor still didn't show up, which made everyone confused. It is not unusual for a professor to be late, but it is strange that there is still no teaching assistant to explain the situation after 15 minutes late.
In the amphitheatre of more than 300 people, everyone began to discuss each other. At this moment, a girl with a ponytail walked into the classroom with a stack of folders. She looked around and asked, "Has the professor arrived yet?" It looked like a teaching assistant. The noise in the classroom was slightly reduced, and some lively and daring returned, "Yes."
The girl walked to the podium, put down the lecture notes, took out her mobile phone and made a call, then put it on her right ear and walked out of the classroom. Echoes can be heard intermittently in the corridor, "When will you arrive? Oh, is that so? Then I'll check with the Academic Affairs Office, ok. Okay."
Immediately afterwards, the girl's voice seemed to drift further away. She should have been walking out of the corridor, but only a faint sound could be heard, "Why didn't you inform us in advance... Wasn't the arrangement already made..."
Everyone in the classroom started buzzing again.
A boy in blue sitting in the first row couldn't help discussing with his classmates, "Could it be that there was a mistake in the arrangement of the classroom?"
The classmate next to him returned, "Probably not. There are only a few lecture halls in the William James teaching building, so the arrangement of classes shouldn't be chaotic, and it's still basic psychology."
Someone later interjected and asked, "Could it be that the arrangement of the teaching building is wrong?"
There were also many people around to join the discussion, and the topic began to spread in the classroom immediately. Some people think it's impossible, some people think it's very new, some people think it's a disaster, and some people don't care at all and are still immersed in their busyness.
However, the noise in the classroom did not last long. The ponytail girl just hung up the phone, walked into the classroom again, and tidied up the folders on the podium, "Sorry, there are some problems with the arrangements of the Academic Affairs Office. , now the classroom has been changed to the fifth amphitheatre, and the professor is already waiting there. There is another class at three o'clock here. Everyone hurry up and move to the fifth amphitheatre." After speaking, the ponytail girl turned around. just left.
Everyone in the classroom looked at each other, what was going on? Although everyone discussed this possibility with great interest just now, but after hearing the conclusion of the ponytail girl, everyone still couldn't believe that the Academic Affairs Office could have made such a big mistake! After all, everyone had not received any notice, and it was suddenly said that the classroom was going to be changed. It was really hard to believe that the Academic Affairs Office would make such an outrageous mistake. Everyone started talking in a low voice, and the whole classroom became extremely noisy for a while.
However, after hesitating, some people started to stand up and pack their things one after another. The group of people in the first row of blue-clothed boys left first, followed by two other groups. At first everyone was a little suspicious, but seeing that someone had already left, a large number of people followed to the fifth amphitheatre.
Only ten minutes before and after There were only less than 100 people left in the first lecture hall. Some of these people are sorting things slowly, some are talking to each other about such a ridiculous situation, and some are talking on the phone about the strange situation... There are very few people, still with suspicious eyes. Thinking, I also opened my own notebook to inquire about the classroom arrangement of the course on the official website of Harvard University.
At about 2:30, there were less than fifty people left in the classroom. Only they themselves knew why these people did not leave.
At this moment, someone came in at the door. Seeing the sparse crowd, he couldn't help knocking on the wooden door, "Excuse me, isn't this a classroom for basic psychology?"
Hearing this question, the remaining fifty people looked at each other, not knowing how to answer. They didn't leave here to go to the fifth classroom, which itself shows that they still have doubts about changing classrooms, or they simply don't want to take this class. Therefore, there was a two-second silence in the classroom for a while.
The silence was broken with a surprised scream, "Evan Bell!"
The 13,000 outbreak is over, ask for a guarantee, ask for a subscription! ! .
