▶ Your Answer :
From the point of view of schools, it would be advantageous to invest more money in promoting sports activities since, as many of us know, various kinds of sports teams such as soccer, baseball, and hocky
at schools play a significant role in publicizing the name of school. However, I, as an average student's position, think that universities should invest more amount of money in their libraries to enhance
their students' academic achievements. The specific reasons for my perspective are as follows.
First of all, schools must not be a profit-oriented enterprise, but an educational institution.
Universities hereby need to make sure that they will work more for providing a high quality of knowledge and fostering potential intellectuals. In order to achieve the education ideals, it is more important to
invest their funds in improving libraries and securing professional instructors rather than spending
on inducing athletes or promoting sports activities.
Another reason that universities should spend more money on their libraries is that there alreay exist
several sports-related schools specializing in training athletes and focucing on sports activities. In the case of South Korea, YONGIN university located in the suburbs of Seoul would be the most representive example of it. The university spend most of its funds on providing the students'sports activities and sports curriculums. The university's sports teams including Taekwondo are highly reputed all over the country. Therefore, a number of regular universities should need to hand over their desire for promoting sports activities to these sports-specializing colleges.
In a nutshell, universities, as educational institution, should focus their money and attention on improving academic facilities and environment including libraries to cultivate the best members of future society
,not training atheltes.
