Kong Xianduo, former vice president of University of Maryland and vice president of Hong Kong University of Science and Technology. As a native of Linyi, he has been promoting the establishment of Linyi University. At present, the Ministry of Education has approved Linyi Teachers College to be renamed Linyi University. Let us remember this hero who founded Linyi University, and also remember so many central, provincial and municipal leaders who supported and participated in the establishment of Linyi University. Professor Kong Xianduo, 1935, a native of Tancheng County, Linyi, Shandong Province, is a famous social activist, educator and expert in plant biology and biotechnology. Bachelor from Zhongxing University in Taiwan Province Province, Ph.D. from University of Toronto, and postdoctoral fellow from University of California, USA. He used to be the Acting Vice President of the University of Maryland, and now he is an honorary professor or visiting professor in Peking University, Fudan University and Shandong University. He is the initiator and promoter of the University of Maryland, Biotechnology Branch, Hong Kong University of Science and Technology and Shandong Linyi University. Professor Kong Xianduo is one of the participants and founders of the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, and is the author of My Ten Years of HKUST. As the first university 100% founded by returned overseas Chinese in the history of education in China, HKUST has made remarkable achievements in just ten years, which is a miracle in the history of education at home and abroad! As Linyi people, we should remember him! Even if you are not from Linyi, remember him when you enter this school! -Mr. Kong Xianduo, former vice-president of the University of Maryland and the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, who founded Linyi University. . . 199 1, Mr. Kong went home from America to visit relatives. One sentence in his speech was "I must build a university in Linyi in my lifetime". The following is a famous article "Why should I run Linyi University" published by Professor Kong Xianduo in Ming Pao. The words revealed the desire for the establishment of Linyi University, and also touched governments at all levels. Finally, Linyi University was established on the basis of Linyi Normal University. "Why should I run Linyi University?" Someone asked me why I was so enthusiastic about promoting the establishment of a university in Linyi. Quite simply, Linyi needs a university. Linyi City governs 1 1 counties and cities with a population of nearly100000. There is only one normal college and one medical college. Young students in Linyi have no chance to study in local universities, so they have to go to Jinan or Beijing, the provincial capital. However, Jinan or Beijing did not give Linyi students a "fair" admission qualification. For example, in Tsinghua University, Beijing 1997 enrolled 2,276 students nationwide, including 439 in Beijing and 98 in Shandong. Every 20,000 people born in Beijing have the opportunity to enter Tsinghua, while every 6,543,800 people born in Shandong including Linyi have the opportunity to enter Tsinghua. The probability of Linyi people entering Tsinghua is 1/40 that of Beijingers. What's more, candidates from Beijing can get more than 78% of the total score, so they can enter Tsinghua, while those from Shandong need to get more than 93%. Oh, my God, the score difference is 15 percentage points, which is unfair and fair competition. Why have these words never been said? According to the statistics of July 1999, students living in Beijing can go to science college as long as they get 466 points. As long as you can get 460 points, you can go to the school of science. Students in Hunan and Hubei must take 556,556,537,566 exams. The score difference is as high as 100, which is really unsatisfactory. Similarly, candidates in Beijing can enter the college of arts and sciences as long as they get 420 points, and they can enter the college of science as long as they get 382 points. But Hunan candidates must score 514,480. Students who can't even attend Hunan College can attend undergraduate courses in Beijing. It's really the best use of people and the best use of land. Even in the poorest Guizhou province (per capita income 1.998, which is only 1.3% of Beijing's), the scores of candidates there are 480 in science and engineering and 5 in liberal arts1.4, which is much higher than those of Beijing candidates. From 65438 to 0999, the admission rate of candidates in Beijing was 75%, Shanghai was 66%, Hunan was 50%, Shandong was far below 50%, and Yantai was only about 30%. How unfair! If it's not fair, it will sound! In addition, Beijing has a population of120,000, and there are 67 universities. Linyi has a population of100000, and there is no university. Children born or living in Beijing, and children born or living in Shandong, have very different opportunities to go to college. You may think that people born in Linyi are all hicks with low IQ, not college material. If you really make such an inference, you are all wet. Do you know that?/You know what? Do you know that?/You know what? Zhuge Liang and Wang Xizhi are both from Linyi, so are Yan Zhenqing and Wang Xiang. Even Liu Hong and Xun Kuang, representatives of Legalism who contributed to the formation of abacus, are Linyi people. Confucius, a generation model, and Ding Zhaozhong, a Nobel Prize winner, are both from Linyi City near Qufu and Rizhao. Linyi has been full of talented people since ancient times. Linyi people are not stupid, but they have no chance to receive a complete education.

Hurry up and adopt it, hehe
