Chapter 789: The Headmaster's Bitter Meat Scheme
It's not just about the basketball court, it's about other issues as well. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
For example, there are long queues in the cafeteria every time you eat, and there are not enough public facilities such as libraries and stadiums.
In the past, Brown University had a small number of students, and it was barely manageable.
Since the Rhode Island Department of Education began to reduce its financial investment in Brown University last year, President Gregorian decided to take matters into his own hands and increase this year's enrollment, leaving a portion of the tuition that should have been handed over to the Department of Education to solve Brown's financial problems.
Originally two students lived in one dormitory, but now it has become a three-person dormitory, and the number of classes in the classroom has increased, while the number of professors and teaching assistants has remained the same, and students are worried that the quality of teaching will deteriorate.
They were outraged that an open and liberal Brown University, under the management of President Gregorian, could have done something "so bad."
Holding high photos of Founding President George Washington, Black Leader Martin Luther King, Jr., and others, calling for improved learning environments and hardware facilities.
When Han Xuan arrived, more than 600 students were gathering in front of the administration building, shouting for Principal Gregorian to come out to negotiate.
This black-and-white photo looks a little too scary, and most of the American celebrities around him who have been dead for a long time are particularly conspicuous when they put their own photos in it.
Later, when I saw the black-and-white photo of Principal Gregoryan, I was a little more balanced, at least they didn't put a candle on it.
When the students in the back saw him, they all gave way to Han Xuan.
Han Xuan seemed to smell a familiar conspiracy from it, this felt so wrong, they marched on the first day they went back to school?
And this demeanor is not at all as excited as the first few times I saw, but it seems to be a little lazy.
Enter the Administration Building and go upstairs up the familiar staircase to Principal Gregoryan's office.
Principal Gregorian, standing by the window and waving to the students downstairs, continued to drink his coffee, turned to face Han Xuan, and said with a smile: "I always thought that they were looking for an excuse not to go to class, which is why they organized so many parades.
I don't know when I will get rid of this bad problem. ”
Han Xuan listened to him with a smile, sat on the chair that originally belonged to the principal, raised his legs and crossed the desk, and said, "Those students downstairs were invited by you to act, are you right to show me?"
But my eyes have already seen through everything.
Say, how much money do you want to extort from me this time, it's really rare to be the headmaster like you. ”
Principal Gregorian was embarrassed, "What's the matter, do you think I'm like that?"
They all came voluntarily......"
"That's right, you are! The countless experiences that have happened to me before can prove it. ”
Han Xuan's words blocked Principal Gregorian, and he didn't know how to answer, so he said hesitantly: "I didn't find them.
But I knew you were coming back, so I didn't appease them to leave.
That's not the point, look at your alumni, they're suffering.
As one of Brown's most successful alumni since its founding, don't you have any ideas?
For example, donate some money or something, I want to use it to expand the school, and the land can be allocated directly to us by the state government, but it takes money to build it!
I have just finished issuing this year's grants and scholarships, and my account has been emptied, and the school is really out of money anyway.
I'm going to build a small garden and an open-air stadium, and it won't cost much, and I promise, this is the last time I'll ask you for donations!"
"That's what you said last time, stop fooling me with the excuses of Alzheimer's or amnesia.
Isn't it ashamed to ask a school student for money all day long, think about it, how much money I have donated since I entered the school, plus the donation from my old man, I am almost able to buy the Empire State Building.
There's only one school in Rhode Island that is famous, Brown, and I don't know where the Department of Education's money is going. ”
"If I hadn't introduced you to my friend's Gambo Sea Ranch, would you have found such a large treasure?
If it weren't for the hard work of your school teachers to educate you, would you have been where you are in business?
So that's what you owe Brown, and I don't feel guilty. ”
Seeing that he didn't succeed, President Gregorian changed his routine and played sensational, and sighed: "Alas, I'm an old man who is about to retire, what else do I have to be cheeky, now Brown University is all I have, I hope it can get better."
I've pulled down my face to talk to you like this, a little sympathetic, okay?"
"No, I'm too young to know what compassion is.
Several companies are bottomless pits that can't be fed, and they take money out of my account every day, so don't you cheat me, okay, every time it's like this, so that I don't dare to go back to school.
By the way, President Gregoryan, how about I plan to finish my college course this year, apply for graduation, and continue my master's degree at Brown University?"
"We're too young to fit you, so I think it's better to go somewhere else for your future.
I recommend Cambridge, Harvard, and Oxford, which are indeed the best in terms of overall strength.
Feel the different learning atmospheres, which are beneficial to your growth. ”
Don't look at Principal Gregorian who is usually cheap, he always asks himself for money when he has nothing to do, but he is indeed a good principal, Han Xuan understands this, which is one of the reasons why he likes Brown.
"If you want me to pay for the expansion of the school, it's okay, but I have a request. Han Xuan said with a wicked smile.
Seeing his expression, Gregorian had a bad premonition, and his tone was guarded: "You say what you want first, and then I will decide if I want your money." ”
"First, in the future, the talents trained by the school, my Snow Mountain Investment Company and its subsidiaries, can be selected in advance, and if the students agree to work for me, the school cannot stop them.
Second, I have the right of first refusal to use and purchase the research institute that I have funded and established, and I have at least 70 percent of the patent rights.
Of course, I will also bear part of the research expenses, but I will only pay for the projects I am interested in, and the school cannot force it.
Third, my grandfather donated a snow-capped university in Shanghai, China, where there was a shortage of capable teachers, and Brown had to send a group of professors to help teach every year.
And there are no schools where students can go abroad for exchange studies, so I think it's nice to have them come to Brown.
If you want to cultivate talents, it is too difficult, it is not enough to have material conditions, teaching experience and teachers are the most important, I hope you can help,
Fourth, this semester is the same as last semester, whether you want to go to class, when to take class, and what class to take is up to me, and you can't control it.
In addition, I would like to add a few more courses, as long as I pass the graduation defense and hand in an excellent dissertation, you have to give me a degree certificate, as many as you want......"
"Stop!
I don't want your money anymore, get out of here now!"
In Principal Gregory's opinion, except for the last one, he can decide for himself, the other three are a bit difficult, and there are too many interests involved.
muttered in his heart, Han Xuan, the little fox, is becoming more and more like his grandfather's old fox.
It's good to let Han Xuan spend money, but in the real calculation, he didn't suffer at all, but made a lot of money...... (To be continued.) )
