It is undeniable that the celebration of the university has been staged in various ways for many years, but it is still well-behaved, so it has not attracted great attention from public opinion. This year, Zhejiang University coincides with the celebration of 120. Different from the past, it received donations from alumni as high as 1 1 billion, which instantly ignited public opinion. Just as everyone was waiting for the celebration ceremony of Zhejiang University120th anniversary, they were slapped by an old alumnus in the 1980s. In fact, this view is not uncommon in the real society, but relatively few people can publicly express their views.
For university management, there is no need to hold a celebration, but the main purpose of the celebration is to carry forward and inherit, not money and fraud. However, under the current political system, colleges and universities have become a tool for economic and social transactions, and both the scale of running schools and the quality of teaching will become a ladder for school leaders to rise. In order to let the superior leaders see that they are well managed, university administrators will certainly try their best to carry out all kinds of hype and gather celebrities to celebrate the school's birthday.
Fund-raising, speculation and interest transfer may be more acceptable if they occur in a complex shopping mall environment, but the university campus that trains senior talents has also become a trading tool for money and rights, which is unacceptable and intolerable. Alumni of Zhejiang University also sounded the alarm for the world and declared war on utilitarian celebration activities. However, in order to curb the continuous spread of similar phenomena, more people need to stand up before universities can be established.
