In modern society, studying and receive knowledge is considered the most valuable time. Playing sports is, thus, regarded waste of time and energy. Although some people say that universities should invest more on libraries due to its value, it should be thought otherwise. Sports activites should be funded equal to libraries because it has several benefits. These include helping students stay fit and improving one's quality.
To start with, college students can maintain healthy body by playing sports, which brings to necessity of enough funding. By developing libraries, students will easily access to diverse fields of books. However, if they are sick and unable to read for long time due to unhealthy body, it is no use. For example, my brother was one of the top students in his university thanks to his endless studying. Although he was proud that he spends so much time on learning, as time goes, he could feel him weakening. He became obese and had too much stress to concentrate properly. Hence, he sustained balance between studying and playing sport to raise the efficiency of working. He succeeded and got rid of his disease.
Moreover, participating in sports activities can improve one's personality. Students can get along with others more easily and raise their companionship, reponsibility and competitiveness. To illustrate, when I was in school baseball team, I learned priceless knowledege that cannot be gained from written texts. By being a member of a group, I felt sense of belongins and determined to work as best as I can. THis growed my responsibliy because I was aware of my role as a player. Also, competing with other schools, I was motivated to train harder and run faster to achieve our goal.
In brief, considering its advantage, sports department in college should be funded as much as libraries. These are raising students' physical state and enhancing thieir properties. All of us should participate in university sports club to achieve these benefits.
