Chapter 956: Chapter 524: About Freshmen Changing Majors (Please Subscribe)_2

Such a beautiful girl studying civil engineering, and not even out of her own interest, is truly a waste.

"Liu Qin, choosing a university major is a serious matter, and it’s understandable that you didn’t know what to pick initially. So, let me ask you, do you have any hobbies or interests?"

Ding Yue glanced at Liu Qin and asked.

"I..."

Liu Qin hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said, "I just love reading books."

Love reading books?

Ding Yue looked at Liu Qin a few more times, feeling that this girl’s academic performance should not be bad, yet she ended up at his Mist City Arts and Science University, which was somewhat puzzling.

"Liu Qin, didn’t you say you enjoy writing novels?"

At this moment, Tang Yun suddenly spoke up.

"Right."

Liu Qin nodded.

Hearing this, Ding Yue immediately said, "Oh? So, you like writing novels, Liu Qin? If that’s the case, why didn’t you choose the Chinese Literature department?"

"My parents said that would be irresponsible."

Liu Qin shook her head helplessly, speaking in a low voice.

"How could that be irresponsible?" Ding Yue smiled immediately and continued, "Choosing a major you love and are interested in is the best thing to do. Since you enjoy writing novels, the Chinese Literature department seems suitable. The school allows students to change their major during the freshman year, and you’ll just need to submit an application to the school to change your department and major."

Naturally, Ding Yue hoped that each student at Mist City Arts and Science University could study a major they liked.

"Exactly, Liu Qin, we also think you’re more suited for the Chinese Literature department."

Xu Meijia nodded and said to Liu Qin.

Ding Yue could tell that Liu Qin was the kind of girl who didn’t have much opinion of her own, even her choice of university major was probably a haphazard decision influenced by her parents at the time.

Now that there was an opportunity, naturally, he wanted her to make her own choice again.

After all, choosing a university major is, in a sense, choosing one’s future life.

"Then, can I, can I switch to the Chinese Literature department?"

Liu Qin asked apprehensively.

"Of course, you can."

Ding Yue smiled and nodded, saying, "Our Mist City Arts and Science University is committed to letting every student study in the major they love, and we hope that students can achieve something in their chosen fields. If your current major isn’t suitable for you, then changing to one that is, of course, poses no problem, and the school fully supports students in this aspect."

With these words from Principal Ding, Liu Qin felt very warmed.

Indeed.

She needed a major that suited her.

She had no idea what to choose after the College Entrance Examination, had a strained relationship with her parents, and ended up choosing a Civil Engineering major at Mist City Arts and Science University by mistake.

Only after arriving at the university did Liu Qin realize how wrong her casual choice had been.

Liu Qin had planned to inquire about changing majors with her academic advisor after military training ended, but now that Principal Ding knew about her situation and had suggested and agreed to her changing majors in the future, she made up her mind at that moment.

Choose the Chinese Literature department.

By doing so, perhaps she could create even better novels in the future.

Seeing Liu Qin’s resolved decision, Ding Yue felt as if he had saved someone who had taken a wrong step—no, corrected—a female student who had chosen the wrong future.

Speaking of which.

Situations like choosing the wrong major probably happen at every university.

Although his Mist City Arts and Science University adhered to the principle of putting hobbies and interests first, there still might be a group of students who, unsure of what to choose, ended up haphazardly picking majors.

Therefore.

The day after the military training cultural evening had ended, Ding Yue called Director Qi Chunsheng from the Academic Affairs Office.

"Principal Ding, is there anything you’d like to instruct?"

After Director Qi Chunsheng arrived, he immediately asked.

As the head of the Academic Affairs Office, he was very busy, especially now in September when Mist City Arts and Science University had just started its academic year. Many issues concerning new students needed to be managed and handled by his office.

However, since Principal Ding had summoned him, there must be some important matter related to teaching that needed to be addressed.

"Director Qi, in past years, how many of our school’s freshmen applied for a change of major?"

Ding Yue looked at Director Qi Chunsheng and inquired.

"Regarding the matter of changing majors after admission, our Academic Affairs Office generally permits it. After all, Principal Ding, when you founded Mist City Arts and Science University, it was to provide a campus for students with professional interests and hobbies to learn."

Director Qi Chunsheng responded, "In the first year, there were basically none. Last year, some students did feel that they had made the wrong choice after enrollment and subsequently changed their majors. However, I think there must also be some students who don’t know which major they should study and therefore just muddle along."

"In such cases, we need to guide the students to change."

Ding Yue, upon hearing this, said thoughtfully, "This year we have enrolled over fifty thousand students, and I hope every one of them can study a major they are interested in and passionate about. That is the only way for them to better acquire knowledge."

This was, after all, one of the "original intentions" of Ding Yue when he founded Mist City Arts and Science University.

Mist City Arts and Science University is currently without thresholds, isn’t it also to give students who were momentarily disheartened by the College Entrance Examination a chance to study at a university and fulfill their college dreams?

If knowledge was merely choosing any major and coming to Mist City Arts and Science University to kill time, then it would truly be, as Director Qi Chunsheng said, just muddling along.

"Indeed, it is."

Director Qi Chunsheng nodded eagerly and proposed, "Then, Principal Ding, shall we issue an announcement about freshmen voluntarily changing their majors?"

"That’s possible."

Ding Yue agreed with Director Qi Chunsheng’s suggestion.

Among the fifty thousand plus new students of Mist City Arts and Science University, there must be more than one student like Liu Qin.

Therefore, this issue must be guided properly by the school. Otherwise, it could easily "ruin" a college student.

As the principal of Mist City Arts and Science University, Ding Yue naturally hoped that every graduate from his university would be able to start a new life based on their professional knowledge after graduation.

"Then, Principal Ding, I’ll go handle it now."

After finishing, Director Qi Chunsheng asked, "Is there anything else, Principal Ding?"

"How is the expansion of our Mist City Arts and Science University’s teaching team going?" Ding Yue suddenly asked.

This issue had been underway since the summer.

Because this year the enrollment had exceeded fifty thousand, which was a bit beyond expectations, if the number of students increases but the teachers’ team doesn’t expand correspondingly, the teaching workload for the teachers would increase significantly.

That wouldn’t do.

With over eighty thousand students, Mist City Arts and Science University must have the teaching resources that eighty thousand students should be equipped with.

In the future, Mist City Arts and Science University might have a hundred and fifty or two hundred thousand students, so the university’s teaching strength must continuously expand.

"Our Academic Affairs Office and the administration department have always attached great importance to this matter. Everything is progressing in an orderly fashion. Moreover, due to the continuous improvement of our Mist City Arts and Science University’s reputation in the past two years, recruiting teachers has been quite smooth," Qi Chunsheng replied. "After the military training in September,we should be able to alleviate the pressure from lack of teaching staff."

"That’s good."

Ding Yue nodded in satisfaction.

And just at that moment, Ding Yue’s mobile phone suddenly rang.

"Then, Principal Ding, I will take my leave first," Director Qi Chunsheng said, ready to leave and tend to the tasks Principal Ding had assigned.

"All right."

After saying that, Ding Yue looked at his phone, which showed an incoming call from Director Xiao Wenxing of the Mist City Education Department.

Director Xiao calling him, could it be that there was a new development regarding Mist City Arts and Science University’s nomination for the National Science Award?

"Hello, Director Xiao."

"Principal Ding, great news, great news!" came Director Xiao Wenxing’s excited voice over the phone.
