Author: When Liu Hongbo agreed to write this column, I also decided to concentrate on Wuhan. This is now "city observation". I know it's hard to write about your city. People pay more attention to things around them and prefer to talk about what is happening around them, but news or comments are often more likely to show special interest in foreign affairs. Recently, a number of media said that the examination paper of a subject in the doctoral entrance examination of Wuhan University was accompanied by an answer. Huang, vice president of Wuhan University and dean of the graduate school, said that he was at the scene when the incident occurred. That was not the answer, but the main point of the score. "This move is within the permitted scope." However, the media comments seem to disagree with the explanation of Dean Huang. Guangming Daily's heavy commentary on "Guangming Watch" on the Internet not only directly refuted the statement that "this move is within the allowable range", but also said that "there is reason to doubt how such a university lacking law and morality, fairness and justice can cultivate students with high moral character and excellent academic performance". Education is Wuhan's business card, and Wu Da is my alma mater. No matter from the point of view of Wuhan people or from the point of view of caring for his alma mater, I hope that nothing bad will happen to Wuhan University. As the saying goes, good things don't go out, and bad things spread thousands of miles. In recent years, Wuhan University has been caught in the controversy of professor plagiarism several times. In the 2008 ranking of Chinese Academy of Management Sciences, the total score of the whole school was deducted 10% because "the plagiarist didn't resign and the school didn't quit". The enrollment of doctoral students in Wuhan University newspaper is also accompanied by the answer. I don't know how much reputation a university can bear to be damaged again and again. What happened in the recruitment of Dr. Wu Da, was it a mistake? If there is an error, is it "within the allowable range" or outside the allowable range? A responsible school should not avoid these problems. The media questioned Wu Da everywhere. Whether it is responsible for the public or the reputation of Wu Da, the school should face the media calmly, make no mistakes and explain clearly. If there are any mistakes, we should deal with them seriously. Previous papers have been decrypted, and it will be clear whether the questioned exam is accompanied by answers or "score points", whether it is within the allowable range or outside the allowable range. For Wuhan University, it is of course an image crisis that the doctoral entrance examination is reported with the answer. Whether this crisis is big or small depends on what you think. In the worst case, people will doubt the level of degree education in China; At the very least, it will make people feel that school exams are not rigorous. How do you want people to know about this? In any case, people will think that such a thing may be normal, and judge the general situation of doctoral education in Wuhan University and even in China. If we take it seriously and give the public a credible explanation, the reputation of the school will be saved. In short, the more serious the school is about this matter, the more positive people's impression of the school will be; The less the school thinks, the more disgusted people are with the evaluation of the school. Even if things are really within the "allowable range", at least people have questions and you need to explain them, not turn a deaf ear.
