Chapter 956: Self-awarded degree, self-awarded diploma

"Dean Zhu, what do you think we should do next?"

Starting an academy from scratch requires a long process.

Today's Dream College only has a piece of land, and even the office building is only a temporary lease.

It's hard to get started, and there's no way around it.

At this time, Zhang Ning and Zhu Qingshi met again and discussed the specific measures of the Future Dream Academy.

"In terms of the construction of the teaching building and the teaching hardware, the preliminary project will take about a year. At present, I have found first-class university designers at home and abroad to plan our school. ”

After Zhu Qingshi was invited by Zhang Ning, he was appointed by Zhang Ning as the vice president of Dream College.

Dean, naturally, is Zhang Ning.

In addition, Zhu Qingshi also relied on his connections and connections in the education industry to find many backbones to help.

At this moment, there were already more than a dozen people in the conference room.

"I'm not talking about this, I'm talking about the reform of our school education. It is not feasible to enroll students independently, and the masses of self-taught degrees are not accepted. Self-issued diplomas, will there be any leaks? I have some worries that if we reform like this, the students will not accept it, and the masses will feel that it will not work. Don't wait until the school is built, but there are no students to sign up. ”

"There's one more problem. I believe you are also aware that the state has adopted a policy of neither supporting nor suppressing our Dream College. Well done, we can continue to do it. If you can't do it, it's not so easy to talk. ”

"It's really a problem."

Zhu Qingshi frowned, "He has a great desire for education reform, although he thinks that with the current plan, it is feasible." However, if it doesn't work, what if it doesn't work? ”

"Dean, what do you mean?"

Because it was in school, Zhu Qingshi also unified his title and called Zhang Ning the dean.

"I mean, first reveal some news to the media and see how the masses react."

"I'll see it."

Zhu Qingshi nodded, "In our education reform, the first thing we face is the masses. If the masses do not approve of it, there is no need for our colleges and universities to continue. And our self-taught academic qualifications and self-issued diplomas have no meaning. ”

Media publicity has always been Zhang Ning's forte.

It is not enough to just bury one's head in hard work for educational reform, and it is also necessary to do some appropriate publicity.

After Zhang Ning and Zhu Qingshi had a meeting, in the afternoon of the same day, the media suddenly broke out a heavy news.

Penguin has entered the education industry and will establish the highest private university in China.

This news came from a secret revelation from a certain source.

The person claimed that Penguin had decided to enter the education industry and would create a private higher education institution.

At present, the site of this private higher education school has been completed and will be set up in Shencheng City in the south.

As soon as this news was released, it immediately attracted the attention of countless people.

Damn, Zhang Ning, I said that I have disappeared these days, and I actually went to found a school.

Yes, the hundred pulpits are no longer speaking, the drama is no longer acting, and the professors are no longer appropriate, are you ready to be the dean?

Anyway, always support Zhang Ning.

It's really fake, I hope it's true, and I hope that Zhang Ning can really create a high-standard college.

It's like Penguin's spec status in the country.

Yes, some domestic colleges and universities will only cultivate ordinary talents, and it has always been difficult to cultivate outstanding talents.

I am optimistic that Zhang Ning will establish a university, and if I am now a senior in high school, I will definitely apply for the exam.

I'm in my third year of high school now, may I ask, what is the name of this university, what is the application code, and can I apply for it this year?

Qian Xuesen's question has not yet dissipated, and the news of Zhang Ning's founding of the university has made a comeback.

When many people saw this news, they were all talking about it.

I look forward to Zhang Ning creating a zào miracle again and answering Qian Xuesen's question.

Some also said that private schools have no drama in China, and it is estimated that Zhang Ning will not focus on this area.

But for more people, Zhang Ning's establishment of colleges and universities is undoubtedly a booster.

But that's just the beginning of the hype.

After the media broke the news that Penguin Company had founded colleges and universities, the media once again exposed heavy content.

Penguin's establishment of higher education institutions was initiated by Zhang Ning, with Zhang Ning as the dean, and invited Zhu Qingshi, the former president of CUHK, to serve as the vice president. The location was chosen in Shencheng, and at this time the campus had already begun to break ground. In addition, the name of the university has also been established, and it is named Dream College. At the same time, Penguin's financial report shows that the first batch of investment of 10 billion yuan in Dream College has arrived. In the future, we will continue to invest, with the goal of 10 billion yuan a year, and invest 10 years in turn, with a total of 100 billion yuan.

This piece of news is more informative than the first one.

He not only exposed the specific person in charge of the academy, but also exposed the name of the academy and the start-up capital.

In particular, the sentence of 10 billion a year, 10 years of investment in turn, and a total of 100 billion funds, simply shocked the eyes of countless people.

100 billion, what is this number?

At one time, they felt that only the state could afford such an investment.

Even if there are private individuals with a wealth of more than 100 billion yuan, they are not willing to take it out.

After all, the 100 billion is too big.

But Zhang Ning didn't frown and took out 100 billion.

How much courage and vision is required.

Countless people, spectators are not calm at all.

"Zhang Ning, this is the rhythm of building a first-class college in the country."

"What is the first class in the country, it is the top in the country."

"No, you're all wrong, it's not the top in the country, it's the world's first, it's the world's best."

"Yes, I guessed that Zhang Ning was going to play a big ticket a long time ago, and sure enough, here it is again."

"Dream Academy, I'm going to apply, I'm going to apply, I'm going to apply."

"I'm going to drop out, I'm going back to school right now, and then I'm going to apply for Dream Academy."

With Zhang Ning's popularity and terrifying investment, he dreamed of the college and became famous overnight.

However, Zhang Ning didn't want this.

There are so many innovations in Dream Academy that it is difficult for him not to be famous.

Zhang Ning needs to be people's recognition of the Dream Academy.

For example, the reform of Dream Academy's independent enrollment.

Of course, independent enrollment is better to say, it is the 21st century, and independent enrollment has been generally accepted.

However, innovations such as self-awarded degrees and self-awarded diplomas are not recognized by ordinary people.

However, Zhang Ning would not be stupid, and directly said at the beginning that the Dream Academy would award its own degree.

Isn't that questionable?

No matter how good the penguin company is, it can't be better than the country.

The country's academic qualifications are recognized by the whole society and abroad.

What does it mean to be self-taught and what does it mean to be self-awarded?

Will your academic qualifications be recognized in the future, and will self-issued diplomas be useful?

Everyone has a word, I'm afraid that saliva can drown you.

For this reason, Zhang Ning is ready to say it differently.

He began not to mention the self-taught degree of Dream College, but began to talk about the college entrance examination.

opened Weibo, Zhang Ning wrote a paragraph on his Weibo.

Is the college entrance examination the only way out?

Can the college entrance examination really test talents?

Can the college entrance examination cultivate talents compared with the masters of the Republic of China?

I have to say that Zhang Ning is very good at attracting people's attention and creating questions.

At present, there are still two months before the college entrance examination, and the college entrance examination has become more and more a hot topic in the current society.

It's just that the college entrance examination has been taken for decades, and countless people have been disappointed in the college entrance examination.

Perhaps, in this, there is a famous Sun Mountain.

But more, it is the parents of those students who take the college entrance examination.

Is it reasonable to decide the fate of a person's life just by taking a college entrance examination?

Just pass the college entrance examination, and select talents, and whether there are any drawbacks.

Whether our education needs to be reformed.

Does our college entrance examination need to change?

Should our education system be more up-to-date?

A few words on Zhang Ning's Weibo once again caused the whole people to discuss the college entrance examination.

And that's just one of them.

Second, Zhang Ning once again borrowed Qian Xuesen's question and raised the question of college degrees and diplomas.

Whether a degree represents knowledge.

What is a diploma used for?

Is the degree important, or is the knowledge important?

Is it the diploma that matters, or the culture that matters?

I think the business company will sue you.

In many cases, state-run units require candidates to have a variety of academic qualifications, degrees, and some also require a diploma from a major university. But for many private companies, the degree is not important, and the diploma can be ignored either. However, the premise of this qiē is that you are capable of doing the job. As long as you can do this job well, degrees and diplomas really don't matter.

Moreover, Zhang Ning also took Penguin as an example.

He recruited the most geniuses.

They don't have a degree, like Mark Mark, the CEO of Facebook.

They also don't have any diplomas, Li Xingping of hao123.

Of course, it also includes Zhang Ning himself, Zhang Ning himself is a guy who has no degree or diploma.

If you want to talk about a diploma, Zhang Ning can only take out a high school diploma. As for the university diploma, because Zhang Ning has not attended classes for many years and has not taken enough credits, he naturally cannot obtain it.

Zhang Ning's Weibo has been approved and forwarded by many people, and it has also triggered another discussion among the whole people about education reform.

In fact, the discussion of education reform has begun since Qian Xuesen's question.

At that time, quite a few scholars, experts, and even the Ministry of Education were involved.

However, the discussion ended with a pilot project launched by the Ministry of Education for basic subjects.

As for what exactly is the project of this basic discipline pilot and what role it has, people do not know.

However, under the guidance of Zhang Ning's Weibo, people seem to see a breakthrough in education reform.

College Entrance Examination.

Degree.

Diploma.

It seems that these are the breakthrough points of education reform.

If the current college entrance examination is not reformed, the current education system will continue.

Because people are educated for the college entrance examination.

If we do not reform the current degree and diploma, we will still not be able to produce excellent people.

Because the facts have proved that Qian Xuesen's question has pointed out the failure of education in China today.

Under Zhang Ning's arrangement, public opinion has done very well.

Chinese people are also looking forward to the dream college more and more.

At this time, Zhang Ning decided to launch the innovative reform of Dream College to the public.

1: Try first.

Education reform is a big one, and it is basically impossible to put one in place. Dream Academy is willing to try first.

2: Independent enrollment

The college will not take the college entrance examination as the standard, and will use independent examination and interview to recruit students independently.

3: Self-taught degree.

4: Self-awarded diploma.

The third and fourth points actually boil down to one point, because it is a private institution, and the degree and diploma will be transferred from the school, and it has nothing to do with the national diploma degree.

This is what Zhang Ning and Zhu Qingshi revealed in an interview with CCTV.

The first two, first try, independent enrollment, do not have too much to discuss.

However, the third and fourth points, self-awarding degrees and self-awarding diplomas, once exposed, have attracted heated discussions.

Some people think that self-taught degrees are too innovative, and that there should be such innovations.

Some people also commented that self-taught degrees are common abroad, and Harvard's degrees are self-taught.

It's just that there are quite a few opponents here.

Although self-taught degrees are feasible, what should I do if the self-taught degree is not recognized by society?

What should I do if the state does not recognize a self-taught diploma?

This is the most important point.

Now I am studying in college, whether I am good or bad, for a diploma and a diploma. Moreover, these diplomas are recognized by the state, and they are very useful after graduation, looking for a job or something, although the diploma is not omnipotent, but without a diploma it is absolutely impossible. Many government agencies don't have a diploma, and you don't even have the qualifications to sign up for an interview, let alone be admitted.

Of course, there are opponents, and naturally there are those who are in favor......

Why can't a self-taught degree, a self-taught degree can just create a degree certificate full of gold, and avoid graduating from colleges and universities now, no matter how well you study. Although some of them couldn't graduate, it was too bad for the teacher to stand it, so he didn't let him graduate. In fact, as long as you are casual and serious, you can be admitted to these universities, and you can definitely graduate. With a graduation rate of more than 99% in Chinese universities, it seems that it is also an irony that there are students who cannot graduate.

Yes, Harvard University can teach its own degree, and everyone agrees with it. In my opinion, it is not that self-taught degrees are not good, but that self-taught degrees have no gold content. As long as such a degree is valuable, why not self-taught degrees?

All the fuss, self-taught degrees are actually already a trend. Only you, China, are still talking about national degrees and national diplomas every day. In fact, Europe and the United States have not only long implemented self-taught degrees. Even, there are many prestigious schools that do not even have degree certificates. Entering that school is purely to teach you knowledge and will not give you any proof.

Of course, Zhang Ning also gave a detailed answer to this on Weibo.

The voice of the masses is too important, and he doesn't want to let everyone disapprove of it because of a little innovation.

He didn't want to end up stillborn because of the overly innovative reform of the Dream Academy.

Zhang Ning explained on Weibo.

In my opinion, the most important thing for colleges and universities is to cultivate talents, not to issue certificates.

Degrees and diplomas can represent a person's strengths. But degrees and diplomas are not the most important thing, as long as you can learn in school and be able to apply what you have learned. I think that not to mention self-taught degrees, even if you don't have a degree, there are people rushing to ask for them wherever you go.

On the contrary, it is those friends who have diplomas but no knowledge, who have degrees, but do not know anything, who are the most headaches for the country.

In addition, in addition to explaining, Zhang Ning also explained the concept of education reform of Dream College.

Self-taught degrees are only one of the points, and at the same time, in order to ensure the gold content of the degree, but also to allow students to learn more knowledge in the institution. Dream College unanimously decided to make every effort to create a de-"administrative" teaching system. In the school, there will be no administrative rank, and there will be no director, president, and a qiē will focus on teaching.

A series of explanations, exposures, and media promotion, Dream College's innovative education reform was finally implemented without much protest.

"Dean, such an innovation that subverts the domestic education reform has been smoothed out by you, you are really a genius."

"What a genius, it's not just me, it's everyone's credit. And, it's not just our efforts. In fact, the public has become very urgent about education reform. While self-taught degrees do have some innovations, they are also very much appreciated to see such innovations. ”

Judging from the reaction of the people these days, Zhang Ning also sees people's desire for education reform.

It's just that for decades, although the state has said reform and reform, it has not changed.

Now, when Dream College became the first person to innovate and reform, people were looking forward to it.

Whether this kind of education reform is good or not, try it first.

And, it seems, such an educational reform, although innovative, is not unreasonable.

It's like the idea of de-administration proposed by Dream Academy.

Many people think that why domestic universities have not been well-known and why domestic universities have not cultivated many outstanding talents. I'm afraid it has a lot to do with this administrativeness.

Students go to school to learn knowledge, not to engage in administration.

These administrative systems are placed there, and even some geniuses have to be stumped by such administrative systems.

"Everything is difficult at the beginning, we have a smooth beginning, and it seems that our education reform is half the success."

Zhu Qingshi said with a smile.

"That's right, but there's so much to do at the beginning."

"By the way, we should also hold an information session for the people. In addition to introducing our Dream Academy, the conference also focused on giving all the people in the country an opportunity to explain and communicate. ”

Zhang Ningti said.

"This meeting is going to be held, Dean, I will arrange this part."

"Okay. Also, how is the recent collaboration with HKUST? ”

"一qiē顺lì. The three professors of HKUST, Li Xiaoyuan, Li Zexiang and Li Jianshu, the three of them are the signboards of HKUST, and as early as more than ten years ago, they were very concerned about the domestic education reform. When I proposed to work with HKUST, the three professors personally brought a team to our school. ”

"How did I hear that you guys seem to be arguing about something?"

"There are some quarrels, everyone is engaged in academics, and it is inevitable that there will be collisions. None of this is a problem, though. ”

"Well, HKUST has been a signboard of Xiangjiang Private University in recent years, and it has a great reputation at home and abroad, which can be said to have given us a reference path, and cooperating with them has been of great help to our dream university."

After the meeting, Zhang Ning did not return to his residence, but stayed in the office building rented by Xiangjiang College.

During this period of time, Zhang Ning was very busy, and he had to live in the Dream Academy on the front line.

It's just that he was just about to rest, but at this time, the three professors of the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology mentioned earlier came to Zhang Ning's room separately.
