Who proposed that "the functions of universities should be increased from three to four?"
Universities have four functions: talent cultivation, scientific research, social service and cultural inheritance and innovation.

2011On April 24th, General Secretary Hu delivered an important speech at the celebration meeting of Tsinghua University's founding100th anniversary, proposing that cultural inheritance and innovation should be regarded as a new function of higher education, which is juxtaposed with the three functions of higher education, which have been recognized for a long time, such as personnel training, scientific research and serving the society. So far, it can be said that the fourth function of universities-cultural inheritance and innovation, which many scholars are emphasizing, has been recognized.
