I understand the need for a university to want to attract a lot of good students, however, it should not come at the price of education. Funding a lot of social activities is definitely a great way of attracting good students and a good reputation, but just like anything in life we have to look at the pros and cons. (必背句子1)
To start off, what is a good student? Are we talking about someone who is a genius at math, a potential star quarterback or a future valedictorian? If the school is looking for the coming years ‘mathlete’ lineup(lineup阵容) they should fund an event mathletes would be interested in, and the same goes for the other kinds of activities. Needless to say, different social groups are interested in different activities.(必背句子2)
I believe that there are two kinds of students, extremely motivated ones who have a well thought-out career plan and the ones who attend university because it is the norm.(必背句子3) Even though social events might be interesting for both parties, from personal experience I know for a fact that the second group of students would be a lot more impressed by them compared to the first group. For people not interested in becoming a doctor, lawyer or any other profession needing straight A’s, those events are what university are all about.
On the other hand, the average good student does not choose to attend a university because of the social activities they can participate in at that university, but rather how the university will help them to achieve their dreams.(必背句子4) Hosting events is a great way to keep up school spirit, but not the ideal way to attract good students. Instead of spending a lot of money on events they could invest more money into good teachers, making the educational institute more attractive to motivated students.(必背句子5) After all, there is plenty of time to party and mingle(mingle聊天，与人交往), but if you don’t reach the grade that you needed you are going to have to pay for it later.(必背句子6)
In short, spending the majority of the money on improving the quality of education would lead to higher average grades and more interested applicants.(必背句子7) As in any business, marketing is not something that can be thrown aside, so funding events is also key to attracting students and future funding. For this reason I feel that it is important to find the proper balance between quality of education and social events. (必背句子8)School spirit is one of the major motivators for a big share of the students and should therefore not be taken lightly. (be taken lightly被随意对待。)(517words)
