COMMENTS:
1.
(SOURCE COMMENTS)
THE STATE EDUCATION
COMMISSION HAS LAUNCHED A
10 YEAR "PROJECT 211" PROGRAM
WHICH IT CLAIMS
IS DESIGNED TO GIVE CHINA'S TOP
100
UNIVERSITIES "INTERNATIONAL STANDING"
(PARA 3A)
.
THE
STATE
IS APPARENTLY WILLING TO INVEST A CONSIDERABLE
AMOUNT OF ITS SCARCE EDUCATION FUNDS
IN THE PROJECT,
WHICH SEEMS TO HAVE SOMEWHAT EPHEMERAL GOALS.
IT
IS
LIKELY THAT CHINA’S ELDERLY XENOPHOBIC LEADERS ARE
HUMILIATED BY THE FACT THAT THE COUNTRY MUST SEND
THOUSANDS OF
ITS BRIGHTEST YOUNG PEOPLE TO JAPAN AND
THE WEST TO BE EDUCATED
IN ADVANCED
S AND T;
AND TH
AT
MANY OF THESE STUDENTS REFUSE TO RETURN TO THE
MOTHERLAND AFTER THEY HAVE EXPERIENCED REAL FREEDOM OF
THOUGHT.
"PROGRAM 211"
IS PROBABLY INTENDED TO
ESTABLISH THE STATURE OF CHINA'S TOP UNIVERSITIES ON A
PAR WITH LEADING WORLD INSTITUTIONS
SO THAT CHINA'S
YOUTH CAN STAY HOME AND GET A USEFUL EDUCATION.
THIS
WILL REQUIRE LARGE NUMBERS OF FOREIGN PROFESSORS TO PAY
EXCHANGE TEACHING VISITS TO CHINESE UNIVERSITIES TO
RAISE THE SCHOOLS'
UNIVERSAL QUALIFICATIONS.
THIS
WILL ALSO BE ANOTHER WAY THAT CHINA CAN OBTAIN ACCESS
TO ADVANCED WESTERN
S AND
T.
