Chinese Universities and American Universities

Chinese universities and American universities are different in many ways. First, Chinese students enroll in fewer courses each term than American students do. Second, unlike American students, Chinese students seldom live outside the campus. Instead, they live on the campus of the university. Third, most courses in Chinese universities are given by professors who lecture to their classes. In contrast, American professors often ask their students questions or allow them to form discussion groups. Fourth, Chinese professors ask students to write fewer papers than American professors do. Finally, a Chinese university is mainly a place to study. But at most American universities, social activities take up a large part of the students’ time.

Higher education is given in colleges and universities. The average course is four years. Students choose their "major" and a number of "electives". Typically, an undergraduate student has to earn a number of "credits", about 120, to receive the Bachelor’s degree at the end of four years’ study. One credit usually equals one hour of class per week in a single course which lasts 10 to 16 weeks-the length of a "semester". About half of the students are awarded the Bachelor’s degree when they leave university. Then the students may go on to graduate school and with a year or two of further study get a master’s degree. After another year or two of study and research, they may get a still higher degree as doctor of philosophy. Higher education trains people to become teachers, nurses, engineers, dentists or do other professional work. Lawyers and doctors must go to school longer than four years.

Since 2003 the small, elite liberal arts school in Brunswick, Maine, has boosted the proportion of so-called under-represented minority students in entering freshman classes from 8% to 13%. “It is our responsibility to reach out and attract students to come to our kinds of places,”he told a NEWSWEEK reporter. But Bowdion has not done quite as well when it comes to actually graduating minorities. While 9 out of 10 black students routinely get their diplomas within six years, only 7 out of 10 black students made it to graduation day in several recent classes. “If you look at who enters college, it now looks like America,” says Hilary Pennington, director of postsecondary programs for the Bill&Melinda Gates Foundation, which has closely studied enroll
