Nankai University can be said to be a school hall that countless students deeply yearn for. In addition to high teaching level and strong teachers, his profound historical and cultural heritage has made this century-old institution more and more impressive. After all, since its founding a hundred years ago, he has trained too many talents and witnessed the process of our country from turmoil to glory.
In fact, Nankai University is a private university, in which Zhang Boling and Yen Hsiu played a key role. Both of them witnessed the turmoil and reform of the late Qing government, so after seeing the Meiji Restoration in Japan, they came up with the idea of strengthening the country through education.
After returning from Japan, the two started their own plans after preliminary experiments. They started primary schools, middle schools and universities one after another. One of the universities is Nankai University. The reason why it became Nankai University was mainly because it was short of money at that time, and it was impossible to build a school in a prosperous area. So a university was established in a depression in the south of Tianjin, and Nankai was named after it.
After that, Nankai's excellent teaching level was praised by many people, and it was also a generous donation after seeing the shortage of funds in Nankai. With the donation of well-intentioned people, the universities in Nankai gradually have the capital to expand their scale. But after all, it is a private school, and public universities have great influence, so Nankai University, which was founded in 18, still has only more than 400 students.
Later, when the war broke out, Nankai University was forced to move to Kunming, Yunnan, and merged with famous universities such as Beijing and Tsinghua to form a new university. You know, among so many universities, Nankai is the only private school, which shows the high teaching level of Nankai University.
It was from this time that Nankai gradually embarked on the road of public universities. It must be very difficult to support a university privately, so when the funds are tight, Nankai University will ask the government for money to solve the urgent need. But Nankai is a private school after all, and it is inevitable to ask the government for money. Eat people with short mouths and be soft on people? This feeling.
Therefore, after the victory of the foreign war, Nankai University moved to Tianjin and there was a problem. Transfer is very expensive, Nankai University has no choice but to ask the government for it. At that time, the government was also generous and happily shouldered the expenses. However, on one condition, private schools in Nankai must be converted into public schools. In the end, the then president of Nankai reluctantly agreed to the government's request.
