College student volunteers: We serve them, they infect us, who is helping whom?

College students are the main force of volunteers for the Beijing Paralympic Games. For example, there are933College student volunteers serve in the gymnasium of China Agricultural University298711_8746

Volunteers work really hard. For example, volunteers in the transportation service position every morning5Get up at around 0:00 to get ready for work; some volunteers were so tired that they had to sneak under the table and take a nap. But while they are providing services, they are also receiving spiritual baptism.

A female volunteer saw for the first time that a disabled athlete who was walking normally just a few minutes ago suddenly had his prosthesis removed, and she was so "scared" that she started crying. Many college students in the "ivory tower" are still unfamiliar with people with disabilities.

However, after having close contact with disabled sports at the Paralympics, the volunteers’ concepts were completely changed. Tao Hong from the w88 casino said that once the Iraqi team members came for training, they all took off their prosthetics in the locker room and shouted loudly with excitement. Before the volunteers could push the wheelchairs, several athletes with complete lower limb amputations had already eagerly supported half of their bodies with their hands and "jumped" into the field! "I was deeply shocked by their confidence, tenacity and healthy mentality." Tao Hong said.
