Huang Youjie spoke in an orderly manner.
"That’s good. Facing such a situation, it’s our duty to stand up. Moreover, Liu Ping is an outstanding student in our law major, isn’t he?"
Obviously, Ding Yue couldn’t ignore Liu Ping’s father’s situation. Once the Mist City Arts and Science University’s legal aid team helps Liu Ping’s father regain justice, it would also enhance the reputation of the law school in the Mist City Arts and Science University.
It’s absolutely beneficial.
"Principal Ding, you guys are outstanding! I suppose I have to give you a thumbs up!" Xu Dongcheng praised Ding Yue while giving him a thumbs-up.
Looking at the approach taken by Ding Yue towards the grooming of students, if a student’s parent is wronged, the school will support the student unconditionally. This encapsulates Principal Ding’s philosophy of putting "student at the center" of the education process.
This philosophy has deeply penetrated Xu Dongcheng’s mind and heart.
Once Xu Dongcheng returns, he is determined to implement a series of reforms, aiming to turn Westlight University into a student-centered institution like Mist City Arts and Science University. He doesn’t plan to treat students as cash cows like other private universities do.
If students are treated as money-making tools, they will eventually forsake the institution.
Westlight University seems to be heading in this direction already, hence the admission rate is not promising every year. If this situation continues, Westlight University will eventually decay.
After learning from Principal Ding’s new educational philosophy, Xu Dongcheng feels that it’s worth trying. He deeply understands how important students are to a university, especially for private universities. As Principal Ding said, students are the foundation of a university!
"This is what we ought to do. As for this student, Liu Ping, you might not know Principal Xu. He’s a very humble and dedicated child. When he first enrolled at our school, he came a day early, and I met him on campus."
Ding Yue felt a sense of gratification while talking about Liu Ping.
Ding has been told many times by Huang about Liu Ping’s dedication since he enrolled in the law major. Although he was aided by his study enhancer, it’s certain that his determination is not merely due to the enhancer.
Perhaps it’s more of a testament to Liu Ping’s own conviction?
"Principal Xu, it’s getting late. Why don’t you go back and rest? Tomorrow I will show you around our Mist City Arts and Science University more thoroughly?"
Noticing the late hour, Ding Yue suggested the plan to Principal Xu Dongcheng.
"That sounds good," Xu Dongcheng agreed.
Therefore, Ding Yue asked Huang to lead them out of the Book Ship Library and head towards the Elegant Garden Apartment, located to the north of the library.
Huang Youjie, following Ding’s instructions, arranged apartment rooms for Principal Xu Dongcheng and his assistants and secretaries.
After sending Principal Xu Dongcheng to his apartment, Ding Yue asked his secretary, Wen Ruohan, to rest early.
Himself and Huang lived in the Elegant Garden Apartment, so they both went back to rest.
This day was quite rewarding for both Ding Yue and Mist City Arts and Science University.
Ding Yue was excited for his upcoming task: to complete the "Provincial Key Major Level" assignment. Upon completion, he would receive another advanced laboratory and a Level 3 University Treasure Chest.
Both are valuable, of course.
An advanced lab is self-explanatory. It would save Ding Yue a significant amount of money, and it might even be more advanced than some world-class specialized labs.
The Level 3 University Treasure Chest is also significant. Based on the last time Ding Yue opened one, he concluded that if it produces a technological item, it will undoubtedly be advanced compared to current world standards.
The contents of a Level 2 University Treasure Chest may be comparable to current world standards, but of course, it also depends on your luck.
Ding Yue still remembers getting a fountain pen from a university treasure chest; he initially thought it held some kind of magical power,
Something like the brush of Magic Pen Ma Liang that could make any drawing come true.
In reality, Ding Yue was overthinking.
That pen was a rip-off!
It was just an ordinary fountain pen, maybe slightly higher quality. Now, Ding Yue uses it frequently for signatures.
But, it’s undeniable that a Level 3 University Treasure Chest can produce technology or items that are ahead of the world’s scientific level.
With an aspiration for the reward of the new task, Ding Yue fell asleep unknowingly.
When he woke up, the sun had already risen from the east.
Under normal circumstances, Ding Yue would sleep until he woke up naturally, unless there was something important to take care of the next day. In that case, Ding Yue would have his secretary Wen Ruohan to wake him up on time.
There was nothing particularly important today; the main event was to have Liu Ping come over in the morning and go into detail about his father’s case.
The rest of Ding Yue’s day would be spent showing Principal Xu Dongcheng of Westlight University around Mist City Arts and Science University, hoping that he could learn something in the process.
In fact, Xu Dongcheng has already learned the most important thing from Ding Yue, which is the philosophy of education.
