Xueba's Sea of ​​Stars

Chapter 227 Private University
After chatting with Xu Hanshan for a meal, Wu Bin found a very serious problem.

That was Gu Ningshan's willingness to fight, and he was in vain!
This little girl probably spent the whole summer vacation obsessed with processing data, and she remembered her commission just before returning to China, so she just found a senior to inquire about American universities.

But it missed the point at all!
The teacher-student ratio described by Gu Ningshan does not need to grab classes at all, and the local tyrant operation that the school will invite you to teach the class you want does exist, but it only exists in private universities.

The concept of private university was quite unfamiliar to him before he heard Xu Hanshan's introduction, or the domestic students should be very unfamiliar with this concept.

However, Harvard, Yale, Columbia, Princeton, etc., the eight Ivy League schools are all private universities, without exception!

Then a few people talked about the latest QS university rankings, and found that except for the United States, other countries have the strongest public universities, which means that the United States is the only one to play universities like this.

And Xu Hanshan, as a top student of Wharton Business School, also explained the difference between public universities and private universities in great detail.

First of all, the first point is that the founders of private universities must be awesome. Let’s not talk about the founders of the University of Pennsylvania. They are all printed on the $[-] dollar knife, so I ask you whether you accept it?
Afterwards, Xu Hanshan gave Wu Bin and the others an example of Drexel University, which is listed as one of the "Three Famous Universities in Philadelphia" in Philadelphia and Penn University. Their business school and public health institute have also been ranked quite high in the rankings. .

The senior of this university is called Anthony J. Dressel. Xu Hanshan doesn't know what kind of hidden predator he is, but she knows that this boss has a particularly awesome godson named JP Morgan, who is the world's top The name of the bank **** the bank, the absolute big chaebol.

"I heard from gossip that when Wall Street was first established, it seemed to have the support of President Dressel to some extent."

Xu Hanshan's whispered words made the other three people on the table get goosebumps, Wall Street!That's the financial center of the world!Big guy big guy.

Secondly, you have to be rich, the rich kind of rich.

The establishment of universities, the recruitment of teachers, the absorption of excellent students, the acquisition of various copyrights and the purchase of teaching materials are all money.

Take Penn University as an example. They spend tens of millions of dollars every year on professional search software and e-books to enhance their various soft powers.

After achieving these two points, you have to train many top social elites to become your live advertisements.

Because you are a private university, you have to rely on your own profit, and the profit model of a private university is much rougher than Wu Bin imagined, that is, tuition fees are very expensive.

For example, at Harvard, the annual tuition fee is about 43000 US dollars, which is nearly 30 US dollars in RMB!And it's just the tuition fee. In addition, insurance, activity fees, accommodation fees, etc., are not cheap, and they add up to about 2 dollars.

This is really an unbearable expense for ordinary families, so if there is no scholarship to protect the body, some students will be deterred by the high tuition fees even if they can be admitted to Harvard.

What should I do if I really have no money and want to go to a private school?As for the loan, Xu Hanshan said that she knew that a professor in her school finally paid off the college loan at the age of 38, and even ate two extra hamburgers.

And this high tuition fee is the reason why private universities must cultivate a large number of top social elites to advertise for you. Otherwise, if your employment rate is the same as that of some good public universities, why should others come to you and spend so much money?
That's why in private universities, Gu Ningshan said that if you want to learn Danish, the school will directly hire a teacher to teach him alone.

Because for private universities, students are customers, and what is a customer?Customer is god!

In addition, in order to attract these "customers", private universities must have better teachers, and better teachers represent high salaries.

The learning environment must also be good. The dormitories are all single rooms, and even the toilets are equipped with air conditioners. In addition, the software equipment must be updated in time. For example, you must have all kinds of genuine programming software.

Therefore, under these premise, the teaching staff of these top private universities are really full of geniuses.

What is the former CEO of IBM, executives of well-known local companies, most of the national economics textbooks are written by him, and successful people who have appeared in Fortune Magazine (Fortune Magazine).

Of course, Penn University also has gods and men. For example, Xu Hanshan admires a teacher in their college very much. How awesome is this buddy? On average, a company is established in three years, with hundreds of thousands of investments, and tens of millions of them are sold after three years. That kind of success.

And still made 6 in a row!At the same time, they still come to class every day, like a heifer flying by plane.

There are also those who go out to answer the phone in the middle of the class, come back and say to the classmates, "Students, bless me, I have won the Nobel Prize, okay, let's continue the class."

Xu Hanshan looked at the expressions of the other three when she finished talking about these celebrity anecdotes, and found that Jiasheng and Zheng Wenhan were stupefied, but Wu Bin seemed to be thinking about something.

"What are you thinking about?" Xu Hanshan asked, patting Wu Bin gently.

Wu Bin was stunned for a moment, then reacted and replied: "I was thinking... If this kind of private university is to appear in China, there must be a huge chaebol willing to invest in a very long-term investment in the university, right?"

"Hmm~" Xu Hanshan nodded in satisfaction, "The summary is in place, but what about private universities, they are more than 100 years earlier than the founding of the United States, they can be said to be a standard product of the times, and it is difficult to imitate, but In fact, I personally think that there is no need to deliberately imitate, after all, there is always more than one road to success.”

After hearing this, Wu Bin nodded in agreement, feeling that the top female student in front of him seemed to have something to say.

……

The next day, the International College Physics Competition officially began. The opening ceremony was similar to that of IPhO, with various oaths and speeches. However, it seemed that because it was the first invitational competition, several heavyweights in the physics community were also invited. Wu Bin has read each of their papers.

What Wu Bin didn't know was that when he listened carefully to the speeches of several professors, the mentality of a big American brother beside him suddenly collapsed.

After spouting an F-word, Aiden turned around and whispered to his Asian teammates: "I thought that rubbery steak yesterday would be the worst thing that happened to me in this game."

"Why, do you hate the speeches of these professors?" Aiden's Asian teammate Leonard raised his glasses and asked strangely.

Aiden shook his head: "No...it's because I saw a person who is already qualified to speak on stage now, but now he is standing in the same team as us."
