First, the rating system will widen the gap between schools.
The purpose of the school is to cultivate talents. Once the rating system is activated, it is equivalent to setting a goal for the school. Only by reaching a certain standard can we get some support. Then the school will continue to expand talent enrollment and campus construction for the sake of upgrading, but it has not really put its mind on teaching. Over time, the quality of education in our school itself will be ignored, which will do great harm to the whole school and even the whole education sector.
Second, the rating system will aggravate the contradiction between schools.
Although on the surface, the rating system is to promote the better development of various schools, in fact, the rating system has many shortcomings. For example, in terms of government funding and talent selection, excellent schools will naturally have more funding, thus retaining more outstanding talents; Relatively poor schools will get less funds, leading to serious brain drain. In the long run, it will only aggravate the contradiction between schools and is not conducive to the development of education.
Third, the traditional American educational atmosphere.
American traditional education pays more attention to academic freedom and spiritual independence. Once the rating system appears, school teachers may be required to teach according to the standards of the rating system. Over time, there will be a phenomenon of teaching for grading, and academic freedom will not be realized. In addition, American universities are typical market-oriented universities. They want free competition and development among universities, and they don't want government intervention.
