教育经费与民国时期私立大学的命运

Education Funding and the Fate of Private Universities in the Republic Period of China

民国时期,办学成绩突出的同济大学、厦门大学、复旦大学和南开大学等私立大学,由于战乱等原因致使办学经费短缺而被迫改为公立;另有一些私立大学由于办学者动机不纯、政府管理不严等原因,办学质量低下且经费竭蹶,被迫停办或并入他校。可见,教育经费对大学的生存与发展有决定性作用。

During the republic period of China,some prominent private universities,such as Tongji University,Xiamen University,Fudan University and Nankai University,were forced to become public universities due to the lack of funding as the results of war and other reasons. Some private universities were forced to suspend or incorporate into other universities due to organizers＇ impure motivation,lax government management etc. resulting in low education quality and funding shortage. Therefore,education funding plays a decisive role in the survival and development of universities.
