Clarify management functions and streamline redundant staff? Famous universities abroad have at most one president and three or four vice presidents. Although we have realistic national conditions, too many deputy posts can only lead to overlapping functions of the party and government, and the division of leadership is extremely detailed, which will inevitably lead to the situation that "the principal does the work of the director and the director does the work of the section chief", and will also make educational institutions that should belong to the nature of running schools become administrative departments with strong official atmosphere, and even tend to be "bureaucratic". We can learn from the experience of local party Committee reform. Conditional schools, as far as possible part-time party secretary, principal, part-time deputy secretary and vice president.
This can not only effectively streamline cadres, but also help to overcome the contradiction between the party secretary and the principal, and can also change the current situation that the appointed party secretary does not attach importance to the education and management experience of the appointee. ? Colleges and universities should further merge and streamline institutions, including the management institutions of school departments and departments. The principle of setting up institutions in colleges and universities should not correspond to the institutions of higher education administrative departments or other government departments one by one, but should set up posts scientifically according to the needs of running schools. Promote the transformation of administrative functions from administrative control to serving teachers and students.
Implement and professionalize the selection system for university presidents? The selection system of university presidents is an integral part of modern university system. Under the existing legal framework, we can still reform the traditional mode of selecting party and government cadres to produce university presidents and advocate educators to run schools. We should strengthen the selection procedure and establish the selection system for university presidents. A selection committee composed of deputies to the National People's Congress, government officials, social leaders, well-known alumni and school professors. We should establish the post of principal, set the standards for principals, and openly recruit for the society. After the candidate is determined, it shall be appointed by the Council or reported to the Ministry of Education.
This process must have a greater degree of social participation and cannot be handled by government departments behind closed doors. Only in this way can we reduce the arbitrariness of the appointment of principals, enhance the public opinion base and authority of principals, and make principals pay more attention to education and academic laws in running schools.
