Discussion on monasteries
1632 in the cold winter, representatives of Amsterdam citizens are listening to the speeches of two learned people-Burroughs and Voss. The investment of the two scholars in the establishment of Dutch higher education institutions was fully reflected in their speeches, which also touched everyone present, because the Netherlands was in great need of a complete higher education institution at that time. Building a country through education? This has become the firm belief of every Dutchman who has experienced war and victory.
After giving a speech at the monastery, a man named. The statue of Athena? A quasi-university was born, which was not a real university in the Netherlands at that time, because the school was not qualified to award doctoral degrees. Even so, the Dutch treat it peacefully, and even have good expectations for its future, which can be seen from its name, because the name itself implies? Bright school? . At the beginning of the school, many students had to attend classes at the professor's house because of the imperfect school buildings, and the auditorium of the monastery was used as a place for school speeches and public activities. Athenaeum Illustre, the predecessor of the University of Amsterdam, led the Netherlands into the benign track of modern higher education in this slightly humble and cramped space.
Students, always smart notes.
Despite the strong support of Dutch citizens, the process of the University of Amsterdam becoming an orthodox national university is full of twists and turns. /kloc-At the beginning of the 9th century, Athenaeum Illustre was officially recognized as a real higher education institution, and the name of Amsterdam actually appeared in the 1970s. As the school changed its name to GemeentelijkeUniversitet van Amsterdam, the school really began to form a free professional academic atmosphere. The appointment of professors must be approved by the city Council, and the mayor personally manages the school? However, due to the open-minded attitude of Amsterdam City Council, the school is still developing steadily. One hundred years later, 196 1, the property management right of the school was owned by the state, and the school officially appeared as a national university, thus establishing the name of the University of Amsterdam. From quasi-universities to municipal universities and then to national universities, the Dutch have gone through more than 300 years, which is also a historical portrayal of the development of many Dutch universities.
No matter which development period, the University of Amsterdam regards students as the most valuable resource, even with? Smart notes? Proportionally, perhaps the difficulty of starting school makes the school cherish the value of students more than anyone else, and pay more attention to the importance of openness than anyone else, as long as you are right? Faith in knowledge? Right? The pursuit of science? You can find your place at the University of Amsterdam. The most attractive thing about this school is not its well-preserved historical buildings, nor how many well-stocked libraries it has, nor how many advantageous majors it has, but a feature, that is, when you really integrate into this school, you will find your existence attractive to others, which every university does not have. This is the highest level of Maslow's personal needs: to realize self-worth because of your personality, quality, ability and study.
Standing still will only make a university depend on it? Magnificence of the magnificent palace? Walk in? The decline of mean streets? Thanks to Amsterdam's natural geographical advantages as an international aviation and navigation hub, the University of Amsterdam is also a collision and aggregation of multi-cultures, and the university is constantly updating its own ideas and deepening its research fields to every corner of the world. Is Asian social studies a bright spot? Sailing star? . The opening of the course is also based on the realistic consideration of the rise of emerging Asian powers represented by China, making this region a global political and economic hotspot. Luton himself is an expert in the field of Asian studies, which makes the courses of Amsterdam University more authoritative and professional. Professor Luton is the busiest when new students enter school every year. He is not busy preparing to teach freshman, but runs among Asian students, especially China students. The information they brought about about Asia, especially China, is the source of Professor Luton's research inspiration. ? What we do is to make our school as international as possible. . The headmaster's words are like a fresh wind, which makes this famous Dutch school with a history of more than 300 years last forever.
The ancient monastery where two professors gave shocking speeches has now become a memorial and museum showing the history of Dutch education. Although it has lost its enthusiasm and noise, it still looks like a serene and determined old man, gazing at the slowly flowing Amster River with deep eyes and watching Amsterdam University dance in Tulip Country? Thought elves? Every day.
