Dormitory bans students from sleeping on mattresses, sparks controversy

VnExpressVnExpress25/11/2023


The dormitory of Ho Chi Minh City University of Education banned the use of mattresses due to bed bugs and insects, but many students found it inconvenient.

On November 24, the Ho Chi Minh City University of Education Dormitory issued a notice requiring students not to sleep on mattresses (mattresses, pads), only on mats, and not to wear slippers in the room.

In addition, students are only allowed to put books on the bookshelf, a box that can be used as a shelf to store items such as cosmetics, medicine, etc. The corner of the bed is only required to hold backpacks, no items are allowed under the bed.

Some other regulations include students taking out the trash from 9pm to 11pm every day; not playing games or watching movies continuously as this affects the quality of study and general living in the room.

This information has caused controversy on student forums. Many opinions say that the regulations are too strict, especially the ban on mattresses, which is inconvenient for students. Others say that it must be temporarily accepted because bed bugs appear in the dormitories.

Ha Thanh, a first-year student at the dormitory of Ho Chi Minh City University of Education, said that if students are not used to sleeping on a mat, they will have back pain.

"Students go to school for 11 periods a day, not to mention physical education and national defense. When I go back to my room to rest, I want to lie down comfortably," Thanh said. The female student believes that if there are unsanitary rooms, the management board should work directly to resolve the issue, instead of banning all students from using mattresses.

The rule that bookshelves can only be used for books and no things can be stored under the bed is unreasonable because Pedagogy students need to use many models and teaching aids. If we ban them all, students will not know where to put them.

Ho Quan, a second-year student, was not surprised because last year the administration had reminded students, although not officially.

"I got used to sleeping on a mat after a while. The dormitory is old, the environment is hot and humid, if the mattress is left smelly, dirty, and has bed bugs, it will also affect other people," Quan said.

The male student said he saw many students leaving their belongings in disarray, dirty clothes piled up, or trash piled up in their rooms, which was very unsanitary. Therefore, the new regulations help students live more neatly and tidily.

Responding to VnExpress on the morning of November 25, Mr. Nguyen Anh Dai, dormitory director of Ho Chi Minh City University of Education, said that there was a situation where students used mattresses on their beds but did not clean them properly, creating bedbugs, attracting insects, affecting the health and general life of the dormitory.

He said there was a time when the entire dormitory was attacked by bedbugs, and the management had to hire an industrial pest control company to clean it, but after a while, the problem recurred. Recently, the company had to replace all the bed boards in two student rooms because of the large number of bedbugs. On the other hand, every time students graduate, they leave behind hundreds of old mattresses in the dormitory, which is very expensive to deal with.

"We don't want to make things difficult or inconvenient for students, but this situation happens many times and is very difficult," said Mr. Dai.

Explaining the regulations on arranging personal belongings, Mr. Dai said that the dormitory was built more than 30 years ago, although it has been repaired many times, it is old, surrounded by many trees, hot and humid weather is easy to generate mosquitoes and insects. The management board requires students to hang clothes and arrange their belongings neatly to create an aesthetic living room and healthy living habits for students.

Currently, the dormitory of Ho Chi Minh City University of Education has 200 rooms with about 1,600 students staying, the dormitory fee is 300,000 VND per month/student.
