“选择学生”与“学生选择”:民国时期金陵大学的招生政策与学生群体研究

Selection of Students and Students Choice:Nanking University s Enrolment Policy and Origin of Student in the Republic of China

金陵大学是清末民初西人创办的教会大学。本文以民国时期金大的招生政策与生源结构作为研究对象,从学校和学生两种视角出发,对学校的教会性质与学生的宗教信仰、学杂费与学生家庭经济、招生考试地与学生地理来源之间的关系进行分析。研究发现,建校前期金大主要为教会培养专门人才,20世纪20年代以后逐渐淡化了对报考生的宗教信仰要求,在课程设置、培养方案等方面向中国政府靠拢;同时,该校“精英化”培养模式对学生家庭经济要求甚高,且生源主要集中在南京本地及其周围县市。抗战时期学校西迁,校内生源结构体现出更大的包容性与多样性,内地中学教育也因此得到发展。

The present paper analyzes the origin of students and enrolment policy of Nanking University,a missionary-school-turned-college,pointing out that it at first devoted itself to training people in the service of the Christian church and then since the 1920s it tried to weaken its religious stand and finally became more inclusive and diverse in the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression.
