Topic: Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Universities should give the same amount of money to their students` sports activities as they give to their university libraries. Use specific reasons and examples to support your opinion.
The question that universities should give the same amount of money to both students` sports activities and their university libraries boils down to a simple priority matter. Some people can put budget for physical activities ahead of money for libraries, and vice versa. In my opinion, budget should be assigned on grounds of both real requirements. Spending on sports activities or libraries would raise student health status and lengthen their knowledge fields respectively. By today`s standards, Funds for libraries could be given higher priority in budget list.
First of all, These days, with the college crowd have a hard time finding jobs, they put studying hard for get better work at the top of the life lists. Figures from the Korea Teachers and Education Workers Union showed that only 19 percent of students in the class of 2008 had jobs at graduations. People in universities go out of their ways to bring their status up to higher social demanding for jobs. In other words, since most of students in college have focused on raising their knowledge to get better opportunities for professions. Spending on students` physical activities have been left in blind spot of them.
Second, university libraries take important role in making students` life more comfort. Because they are versatile enough that students can get by without separate from PC rooms, movie theaters and cafes. As they spend more and more time in libraries, these institutions made a concerted efforts to take their step to bring its systems and services to compliance with students` significant expectations, including free internet, rental DVD`s and a cup of coffee free of charge. In addition, Investment in physical activities is basically more benefit men in college than women. Because girls are hardwired to care these activities like talking with BFFs(best Friends forever), loitering at a mall and reading books. On the other hand, men prefer outdoor activities such as playing basketball, soccer to what women do in their leisure time.
In conclusion, all things considered, more funds of university for libraries than students` sports activities may make perfect sense to the college crowd.
