Seeing the architectural pictures of this university, if I didn't know it was a university, I would have walked into the film and television city. It is said that these antique buildings are only the first phase of the project, and the whole project cost reaches 1 100 million yuan. It will be built into an antique campus. I don't agree with this practice in colleges and universities.
First of all, what attracts students in a university is not the magnificent external architecture, but the teaching and scientific research ability of the university. For a university, which national first-class laboratories, which national first-class disciplines and which excellent teaching and research resources are the soul of a university will make this university a first-class university.
Secondly, the responsibilities of universities should be personnel training, scientific research and cultural inheritance and innovation. The investment in education given by the state should be more used in these areas, rather than building a palace campus, thinking that it is to promote traditional culture, which is putting the cart before the horse. Only by cultivating high-quality talents can we better serve the society and carry forward China's excellent traditional culture.
In a word, I don't agree that colleges and universities should make great efforts and spend a lot of money to build such flashy buildings, but should use limited funds for talent training and scientific research.
