University athletic departments should receive the same amount of funding as university libraries. |
In this age of diversity, it is generally said that physical education is important as much as theoretical studies. Many people might agree with this statement in terms of a valanced education and a healthy smart student. However, I disagree that giving the same amount of weigh on physical education and invest the same amount of money as libraries because school should cover more students' needs and studying out weighs playing sports.
To begin with, school should meet almost every students' needs. University has various students whose major, interests, ability and environment are different each other. To put it again, money should be spent to help most students. To illustrate this, there are good examples as follows. A friend of mine, who have to pay for his tuition fees himself, received a scholarship last semester. Thanks to the scholarship, he can concentrate on studying better. On top of that, this year , university had funded its library more than last year so that library have increased the number of books they have and have replaced old facilities with new ones. As a result, more students like school ever before.
In addition, studying is more important than physical activities such as playing sports. This is because university have established not for leasure or entertainments but for academic activities. If money were focused on academics, students could learn more effectively. According to Korean Administration of Education said that a school spent most money on sport activities recorded low test scores in the country. Conversely, a school more focused on academics showed the best scores in the country. To illustrate my cousin's case, she had studied the school mentioned above, and won a prize at a world contest. If she had not studied there, she might not have done so.
To summarize what I have said until now, I strongly believe that it is desirable to invest more money in academics than physical training. Therefore, university athletic departments should not receive the same amount of funding as libraries. The reasons behind this are that university have to focus on more students and studying is more valuable than sports activities. All things considered, there is no doubt in my thought that no one can deny the importance the benefits mentioned above by funding more in academics. |
