The activeness of Chinese Universities to reduce the mental stress of International Students during Pandemic
Gazi Tawfiq Ezaz (张子涛): COVID-19 is imposing a threat to physical and mental health since its outbreak. The Pandemic attack is panning out; the psychological issues have rapidly intensified its public health burden. For university students, increased psychological distress may pose negative academic consequences. Due to social distancing measures to avoid Coronavirus infection, education institutions have initiated an online learning format. It is reasonable to assume that students are experiencing less motivation in their studies. A timely call to action from Chinese universities can create a positive impact on students' mental health.

Although
university, school, or other educational institutes are avoiding course works
at the campus, they keep conducting their course work online. WeChat or QQ is a
top-rated social platform in China, with the aid of these social platforms;
students can continue their study or research by staying at home. Besides, Chinese
Universities organized various cultural and sports events to remove students'
mental stress at the campus.
Hohai
Univesity (HHU) is a famous university located in Nanjing, Jiangsu, China. HHU is
renowned for its friendly attitudes towards International students. From the
beginning of the pandemic, Hohai is supporting international students living
both on and off-campus. Due to extended quarantine, students may feel
depressed, so the International School office (ISO) of HHU plans a series of
outdoor and indoor activities for international students. Recently, ISO
announced organizing the "Hohai Impression" Contest, including
drawing and photographic contest to enrich international students' cultural
life. Further, the International School will host the "ANNUAL
INTERNATIONAL CULTURAL FESTIVAL, 2020" of Hohai University in the upcoming
month. Sports events like Badminton and Soccer tournament at the campus will
also be held in the forthcoming months.
International students are eagerly waiting to attend
these cultural and sports events. They also expressed their gratitude and
support to the International School of Hohai University.
