Discipline construction is the core task of the construction of "double first-class universities". How to carry out discipline construction? The author believes that this is really an important issue worthy of discussion. Because the current way of discipline construction is basically carried out under a unified baton. This baton is that relevant departments formulate various evaluation index systems according to the content of discipline construction. The discipline construction of colleges and universities is basically based on this index system to develop their strengths and make up for their weaknesses. Its advantages are strong operability and convenient execution. The discipline can score itself according to its own strength. Its disadvantage is that the baton shows the role of unified action, and it is difficult to distinguish between characteristics and personality. Moreover, the discipline construction of schools at all levels under the command of the baton often needs to deal with various assessments and reports, and grass-roots teachers are frequently and tired of coping. Sometimes it's hard to say. Therefore, how to carry out discipline construction is still a specific problem worthy of great attention in the construction of "double first-class universities".

As a front-line ordinary teacher, the author talks about his preliminary views on this. It is considered that atmosphere construction is the soul of middle school discipline construction in the construction of "double first-class universities".

"Atmosphere construction" includes many levels and aspects. According to the content of the existing discipline construction, "atmosphere construction" has two aspects: soft and hard. The soft aspects include the cultural atmosphere, the atmosphere of academic freedom, the atmosphere of historical inheritance, the atmosphere of loving posts and dedication, the atmosphere of respecting teachers and students, the atmosphere of fairness and justice, etc; Hard aspects include working atmosphere, scientific research atmosphere, teaching atmosphere, cooperation atmosphere, research atmosphere, inheritance and guidance atmosphere and many other aspects. The reason why the southwest United University can cultivate a large number of pillars for the country under such difficult environmental conditions is because there are all kinds of good atmosphere.

"Atmosphere" is often formed naturally. For example, the atmosphere of academic freedom, the atmosphere of respecting teachers and students, the atmosphere of supporting rookies and other atmosphere indicators with soft characteristics are mostly the result of historical accumulation in the process of discipline development and a naturally formed atmosphere. These naturally formed atmospheres have the characteristics of long history and fragrance. If a discipline member or scientific research team does not pay attention to consolidating and carrying forward the fine tradition of academic freedom, the discipline and / or team will have bad phenomena such as academic hegemony, academic corruption and academic misconduct; If the atmosphere of team support for rookies is gradually eclipsed, young people will not see hope. Therefore, the task of discipline construction is to carry forward such a soft atmosphere.

But many "atmospheres" need to be built. For example, the atmosphere indicators with some hard characteristics, such as the atmosphere of doing things, the atmosphere of scientific research, the atmosphere of cooperation and the atmosphere of tackling key problems, need to be vigorously constructed and developed. For example, many colleges and universities put new recruits into corresponding research teams and research groups when they enter the job, which is actually a kind of design and construction of scientific research atmosphere. If a team lacks a good working atmosphere, always pays attention to price and effectiveness, and has little dedication and collective sense of honor, it is difficult to smoothly promote the daily teaching and scientific research work, and it is impossible to talk about the construction of scientific research atmosphere, cooperation atmosphere and key research atmosphere. In the past, the atmosphere of hero, success or failure of projects and Kung Fu in SCI papers highlighted the importance of individual efforts, weakened the importance of teams, and deviated from the international environment in which scientific research needs cooperation and cooperation. Although this trend is being curbed and reversed, looking around, the task of breaking the "four only" is still very arduous. Therefore, atmosphere construction is the focus and soul of discipline construction in many colleges and universities in China.

Emphasizing the importance of "atmosphere construction" in discipline construction is to let China's university discipline evaluation get out of the shadow of the baton. Dilute the simple and complicated quantitative index evaluation and the boundless and endless mid-term evaluation of annual assessment. Let the discipline construction return to the normal ecological system, and let the discipline evaluation return to the rational, objective and pragmatic reality.
