You are always accepted.

What is the meaning of education? Why should we start a university? Why is the GPA extracurricular activity leadership as the condition for entering the university? What can universities do for us?

Although the main part of this film is a comedy, it brings us more than just laughable jokes. On the second day of SHIT’s establishment, groups of high school graduates crowded at the school gate. Like Babbitt, they have their own dreams, and they also dream of college life. However, the strict systems and judgment standards have stopped them from the door of "regular" universities. The resentment, grievance, and even the unwillingness not to disappoint their parents, let them join SHIT, a virtual "university" that anyone can enter. What can "regular" universities do for us? Courses, facilities, and professors are nominally the three indispensable elements of a regular university. But what can be brought is only the future career needs and the foundation of survival. However, it is really not all what we are longing for.

Youth is for experience. The meaning is different for everyone. You can say that you like this kind of education model, and you like to go through four years of boring university academics just to have a good income job in the future, and you will have to make a lot of money and live a luxurious life in the future. You can also say that you don't like that. Even if you haven't been admitted to a regular university, you can still raise your arrogant head, do what you really love to do, and realize your dreams. This is just like SHIT's school philosophy, there is nothing impossible. I think nothing can stop you from becoming what you want to be and living the life you want. There is no definition of happiness in the world, and no one has drawn any boundaries for success or failure. Every person created by God is an individual, and they are all different. We don't have any right to criticize, to belittle anyone's thoughts and what they want to do, even most people think it is absurd.

When I saw the boy raising his hand from the crowd, I wanted to get Babbitt’s attention many times to let him speak. All I wanted to say was that this was the first time my parents said that I was proud of me. I really shed tears. This is also the first time SHIT makes me feel that it not only gives students a place to realize their dreams, but also gives them spiritual comfort and hope in despair. Seeing that Babbitt went to the real Harmon Academy to take lessons to learn about the school experience and education model for the sake of helping the students. He also set up a big whiteboard for the students to write down what they really want to learn. Really Very touched. Passion, creativity, and imagination are too precious and precious in this age.

Although SHIT is indeed a farce in theory, what it brings is everyone's reflection on university education and a new understanding of the real needs of students. Let us let go and chase our own youth. There is nothing to be afraid of. Remember that you are always accepted by yourself. When you find that your life is still there after your youth is gone, man, you should be proud of yourself.

    It is a pity that there is no further thought and thinking, so it can only be a naive entertainment film, so that the large monologues in the hearing scene can only be played by children without any weight. Also I'm really annoyed with the way Justin Long looks and acts, minus one more star. Of course, maybe the director and the screenwriter are just looking for a piece of music just like the audience, but this level of music is just average.

    If you can't go to college, you can start your own school. It's super creative!
