Regarding vocational education in Gotham, Victor, Schiller, and Anna have always been worried about it.

Victor is because he really likes to teach and educate people, Schiller wants to improve the overall education level of Gotham residents, and Anna, she thinks that the students who come out of the vocational education school can provide a better source of quality students for Gotham University, instead of recruiting a group of desperate illiterate people every year.

Due to the special geographical location of Gotham University, it is almost impossible to recruit good students from big cities, and high-quality students from the entire East Coast will either enter Ivy League schools or go to other universities in the metropolis, and almost no one will risk their lives to go to Gotham to go to school.

Most of the people who come to Gotham to go to school are students who have no choice but to come here for college, and there are also local students who want to stay in Gotham.

It is difficult for these two kinds of people to have high talent and quality, and students from other places are generally from a small seaside town like Brughhaven, and because they can't go to the universities in the surrounding big cities, they can only venture to Gotham to try, and students from such places have a poor foundation due to the poor level of local education, and it is very difficult to teach.

Not to mention the local students in Gotham, the local students in Gotham are generally divided into two categories, one is really good at studying, because they don't want to leave their hometown, so they don't get into the field.

But these students are the most orthodox indigenous people of Gotham, and they have all the good qualities of the citizens of Gotham, so they are gifted, but they are very difficult to discipline, and their minds are not focused on learning at all, as long as they don't use their high intelligence to commit crimes, that's thank goodness.

The other type of local students are the descendants of gangsters who are more similar to Evans, and the gang leaders don't want their children to learn anything from school, but just think that college students have better names and send them to be gilded.

There are many good students like Evans, but the number is too small, and most of their energy is focused on running the family business.

Such a composition of students makes it difficult for Gotham University to rank among the top of East Coast university education, to put it mildly, it is basically the bottom, but because the overall education level of the East Coast is not bad, it can barely be ranked in the United States.

In order to improve the situation, some Gotham University professors, led by Schiller, who do not plan to change jobs, plan to start with basic education.

However, it is impossible to carry out compulsory education in Gotham, there is no soil for compulsory education and education for all, and if you want more people to receive education, you can only induce them to take advantage of it, that is, you must let them learn the craft, learn something that will be rewarded in a very short time, so that they can enter the school.

For this reason, Schiller and others have long drawn up plans for vocational education.

However, the opening of vocational education schools in the past has met with a lot of resistance, since it is tempted by profits, it will inevitably be trapped by profits, too many people want to meddle in education, want teachers and students to use for them, want schools to teach what they want to teach.

But if they are allowed to succeed, then everything will return to square one in the end, and there will be no way to achieve the goal of getting more people into the path of systematic education.

Therefore, this vocational education school must be independent of all forces, and it is not easy to achieve this.

However, Schiller has a ready-made point that can be leveraged, and that is Gotham University itself.

For some reason, now, this is his territory, and all the gangsters in Gotham know that no matter what happens, they can't enter this university and disturb the students here.

If the students here don't finish their homework on time because of them, it's going to be a horrible thing to happen.

Ever since Schiller became a professor at Gotham University, this has become a silent tacit understanding among the Gotham gangsters, and in most cases, Gotham University is a pure land in Gotham City, which really provides a good learning atmosphere.

In this case, it is better to make the territory of Gotham University a little larger, and directly integrate the vocational education school into the education system of Gotham University as the preparatory department of Gotham University.

In this way, more gifted children can be screened out from the civilian class to study in universities, instead of relying only on those rare geniuses and rich second generations who want to be gilded.

And

Vocational education students pass exams to enter universities, which will allow them to gain a kind of learning inertia, which can well correct the rough way of thinking of Gotham citizens, so that they can think about problems with more logical thinking, and then influence their next generation.

In addition, even if you do not go to university and only graduate from a preparatory department, you can master a skill that will enable you to make a living, which will increase the income of these people, so that they can provide better conditions for their children, including education.

In a series of long-term education reform programs, the first generation is really just an experiment, or a hematopoietic machine, in essence, to screen out those more rational scholars, so that their descendants can gradually occupy the middle class of Gotham, so that it will be easier to carry out top-down reforms.

After the plan for Gotham Vocational and Technical College was decided, Victor had been running the formalities, but because Mayor Roy was in cahoots with them, and the state legislature really couldn't control them, it took almost no effort to approve the venue, funds, and materials.

Previously, Lex Luthor donated a new laboratory building to Gotham University, but due to the short construction period, more than half of it has not been completed, and only one building in the first phase has been completed, and the College of Vocational Education is placed in this new building.

Gotham University is not short of money, so the hardware and software are good, and there is a considerable amount of open space for practical operations, ignoring the fact that the dormitories and classrooms are only two stories apart, it is a perfect vocational school.

After the school opened, the next step was to recruit students, and Victor originally wanted to do without those who were forced into it by the gangsters, but Schiller refuted his opinion.

Schiller believes that this time, the gangsters will not cram their own children into this vocational school.

The vast majority of gang leaders are short-sighted, they only feel that they have earned enough money in this life, why should their children work so hard, and lie on the gold mountain of their own family to eat, drink and have fun?

The composition of the student majors at Gotham University also illustrates this point.

The vast majority of gangster children choose majors with better names, art majors are the most popular majors, and among art, fine arts, art criticism, etc., sound very high-grade majors, and are more popular.

Most of the gangsters who will be sent to vocational education schools to study are middle-level personnel with flexible brains in the gang, who do not need to patrol and maintain the gang's territory every day like the low-level personnel, have enough free time, and at the same time, have the highest technical requirements.

In an area, the management of tap water, the arrangement of electricity, the operation of cold storage, and the sequence of freight logistics all need to be arranged and managed by this group of people, and it is precisely because they do not have such ability that the gangs are more eager to send them to school and let them study hard.

After reaching an agreement on this issue, Victor also agreed to send students to the gang, but the dispatch is also conditional, and it is essential to pay for tuition, and at the same time, as long as the gangs send the students in, they must ensure the safety of the school's school bus trucks, and at the same time provide the most basic material support for the vocational education school.

This process is actually the most time-consuming, because it involves all kinds of gangsters, involving their own territory and interests, no one is willing to let go, and after a long negotiation, the admission list is still decided.

When looking at this list, both Victor Schiller and Anna discovered that it had a special name on it - Tracy Goth.

"What's going on? Didn't the Gothic family own the shipyard? Gotham is also a family with a head and a face, how could Mrs. Goethe send his daughter to a vocational school? Anna obviously knew a lot about the situation in Gotham, she frowned, put her finger to her chin and said, "Such a delicate lady, either learning musical instruments or art, how could Madame Goethe let her learn to repair cars?" ”

Victor shook his head, looking a little puzzled, and Schiller didn't know what Madame Goethe was going to do.

He speculated for a moment, and then said, "Some time ago, I saw their mother and daughter in the theater, and at that time, Detective Gordon told me that the Goethe family and the Werther family were discussing an engagement. ”

"If that's the case, then Miss Goethe probably won't finish college and remarry, but

After graduating from church high school, he got married. ”

"Now it seems that there may be some problems in the marriage contract, and the Gothic family may not want to be engaged to the Werther family, but there needs a reason to regret the marriage, as long as you send your daughter to college, then little Werther can't wait for Miss Goethe to finish college before marrying her, right? In this way, you can justifiably escape the marriage contract. ”

"It makes sense." Anna and Victor nodded, and she continued, "This also explains why Madame Goethe did not wait for the official opening of the university in September, and sent Miss Goethe in a hurry now, because if she waited until September, I am afraid that the wedding would be completed." ”

"And, I suppose, Miss Goethe must have broken ties with that kid from the Werther family." Victor's imagination is even richer, he said: "It is not good for mothers to forcibly break up, so they can only send their daughters to school, and as long as they are separated, they may forget in a few months." ”

All three nodded, feeling that their speculation was reasonable.

But at this time, Victor was a little difficult, he said: "A young lady from a rich family, but went to class 3 to teach car repair technology, not to mention whether she can learn the technology, just those truck tires, she shouldn't be able to move, right?" ”

Schiller snorted coldly and said: "If you can't move, you have to move, learning is to overcome all difficulties, if the tires can't be moved, if you can't remove the screws, you won't unload, if you can't memorize the back of the book, then what do you need the teacher to do?" ”

"That's right, I know these ladies too well, don't look at them on the surface, they can't pick their shoulders or hands, and they will fall down when a gust of wind blows, but if they are allowed to go shopping, they can walk for more than ten hours without stopping." Anna pouted.

"I don't care what she's here for." Schiller knocked on the table and said: "As long as you enter the school, you have to study hard, you must learn something to graduate, everyone is the same, Wayne can not be an exception, does Goth think that she is better than Wayne?" ”

Anna and Victor glanced at each other, and both of them showed a gloating smile, apparently, they had heard the news that Bruce Wayne had almost been postponed by Schiller because of lack of credits.

Schiller picked up his cane, stood up and said: "Tomorrow, it is the first day of the vocational education school, I will listen to the whole class, and if anyone dares not study hard, I will personally go and talk to his boss." ”

Looking at Schiller's sneer, Victor and Anna shivered in unison.
