Chapter 1460: Chapter 774: Full Load of Mist City Arts and Science University (Please Subscribe)

Since late August, Mist City Arts and Science University has been busy with the enrollment of new students and the initiation of freshmen.

Although Ding Yue doesn’t have to deal directly with these matters, he is still quite concerned about the new student affairs of his Mist City Arts and Science University, so these days he has been on campus, watching Mist City Arts and Science University welcome batch after batch of new students.

Especially for the students of key departments such as mechanical engineering, computer science, and the medical school, Ding Yue pays particular attention.

Why?

Naturally, because these students are not like those from previous years who were all underachievers.

Among them, there are indeed some top students.

After all, these are students who were admitted based on the standards of the minimum scores required by top universities. Ding Yue is determined to focus on nurturing these talents so that they will keep striving at Mist City Arts and Science University, and once they graduate, Ding Yue believes they will surely make a mark.

Of course, once these students graduate, Ding Yue’s Feiyue Group will definitely recruit them first-hand and make use of them for the company.

If the excellent talents trained by himself were to benefit others at a bargain, wouldn’t that be a great loss for him?

Ding Yue definitely wouldn’t carry out such a loss-making business.

The consecutive days of freshman registration have ended in the blink of an eye.

Mist City Arts and Science University successfully completed this year’s recruitment, and over the past few days, the registration scene has been extremely crowded. Ultimately, after statistics from the Academic Affairs Office of Mist City Arts and Science University, a total of 110,964 students completed their registration.

One hundred and ten thousand freshmen, which is much more than what Ding Yue expected last year. If we continue at this scale, the long-term in-school student population of Mist City Arts and Science University might exceed 300,000 to 400,000. With such a large number of students, Ding Yue couldn’t help but face a difficult problem.

The current campus size of Mist City Arts and Science University is vast, but it can only accommodate up to two hundred and some thousand people. However, this year alone, over a hundred thousand new students were admitted, and the current number of enrolled students in Mist City Arts and Science University is close to 200,000.

That is to say, in one or two years’ time, after more admissions, the campus might no longer be sufficient.

Whether it’s academic buildings, dormitories, canteens, libraries, or sports facilities, they all can hardly keep up with the pace of the enrollment numbers.

The expansion was initially planned for an institution of around two hundred thousand students, but now it seems to be somewhat inadequate.

"Director Qi, does that mean that we now roughly have a student population nearing two hundred thousand across the four academic years?"

Ding Yue asked Director Qi Chunsheng while looking at the data on the work report.

"Yes, Principal Ding, it is indeed too crowded, but we are a private university, and the number of students we want to recruit is our own decision," Director Qi Chunsheng nodded as he spoke, then added, "Principal Ding, if we keep expanding at this rate, I fear that..."

"Director Qi, are you trying to say that our campus might not be enough?"

Ding Yue asked calmly.

"Yes, Principal Ding, this year’s recruitment has already exceeded one hundred thousand. I believe that each year’s recruitment will surpass one hundred thousand, so the in-school student population of Mist City Arts and Science University will at least be around four hundred thousand, not to mention the number of graduate students."

Director Qi Chunsheng analyzed.

"Hmm, right."

Ding Yue stroked his chin and muttered, "It seems that the plan to build another campus needs to be brought up on the agenda."

Director Qi Chunsheng, obviously hearing Principal Ding’s muttering, immediately said, "Principal Ding, we really do need to consider building another campus. Universities with large student populations actually all have more than one campus. For example, Mist City University has two campuses in the local urban area of Mist City, and even has another campus in the lower district counties. However, Mist City University doesn’t have as many students as ours."

"I’m aware of that."

Ding Yue nodded slightly and then said, "In that case, let’s have a meeting to discuss the matters related to constructing another campus or expanding the existing campus."

"Hmm, alright."

Director Qi Chunsheng nodded in agreement.

"Secretary Wen."

Ding Yue immediately called for his secretary Wen Ruohan and instructed, "Notify all senior leaders of the university as well as heads of various departments to come to the Administration Building for a meeting immediately."

"Okay, Principal Ding."

Wen Ruohan promptly took out her phone and began to contact all the relevant leaders of Mist City Arts and Science University.

Ding Yue was not idle either; he directly sent a Whatsapp message to Xu Bin and Huang Youjie, calling them to attend the meeting. After all, they were two very important leaders of departments at Mist City Arts and Science University and were also considered Ding Yue’s right-hand men.

"I was just saying, ever since the end of the freshman registration this year, wherever you go on campus, it’s a bustling scene, with students everywhere. It turns out it’s because the school’s capacity is nearing its limit."

Ding Yue couldn’t help but reflect.

Over the past two years, he had been busily focused on the scientific research of Mist City Arts and Science University and the commercialization of technology at Feiyue Group, neglecting the main construction issues of Mist City Arts and Science University.
