Chapter 1707: Chapter 897: Which departments or majors are relocated to the South Campus?_2

In these two or three years, the Pharaoh Kingdom can afford to wait, as this is the timeframe they have planned.

Therefore.

In these two or three years, Feiyue Construction Company focused most of its efforts on the new Cairo City in the Pharaoh Kingdom. Once they "win" this battle in the new Cairo City, Feiyue Construction Company can once again achieve a smooth development.

At this stage, Feiyue Construction Company is working on two main projects: one is the new Cairo City in the Pharaoh Kingdom, and the other is the mostly completed Mist City Arts and Science University’s South Campus.

As for the Mist City Arts and Science University’s South Campus, ever since the construction began, Ding Yue hasn’t paid much attention, only occasionally getting updates from Director Chen Ping on the construction progress.

Now, with the construction of Mist City Arts and Science University’s South Campus nearly complete, by the time the new batch of students arrives next September, better student distribution can certainly be achieved.

In fact.

When Ding Yue learned that the construction of Mist City Arts and Science University’s South Campus was nearing completion, to ensure better campus planning and not resort to last-minute solutions, Ding Yue decided to hold a meeting to discuss which departments and majors should move from the existing campus to the South Campus for teaching.

To be honest, Mist City Arts and Science University’s campus currently has over 200,000 students, making it somewhat "crowded." Ding Yue believes that accommodating tens of thousands of students on this campus would be ideal, ensuring the campus neither feels overcrowded nor deserted, with basic infrastructure achieving a perfect balance.

Continuing at this pace, the total number of students, including undergraduates, postgraduates, and doctoral candidates, at Mist City Arts and Science University will exceed 300,000. At that point, the infrastructure may likely become overloaded.

Take the library for example.

Although Mist City Arts and Science University’s current campus has three libraries—one old library and two new large libraries—this still poses a tremendous burden for 300,000 students.

The South Campus is also building two large libraries. Thus, transferring some students to the South Campus will effectively alleviate the load on these basic educational facilities.

So three days later.

Ding Yue officially convened Mist City Arts and Science University’s educational leaders, department directors, and deans from various schools in the No. 1 meeting room of the Administration Building to discuss the matter.

"Hello, Principal Ding."

Upon seeing Principal Ding, the department directors and deans greeted him.

They are aware of the meeting’s agenda.

When Ding Yue instructed Secretary Wen Ruohan to notify them, he had Wen Ruohan inform them.

"Please sit, everyone, please be seated."

Ding Yue glanced around the meeting room, seeing that all the necessary attendees, including his well-known partners Huang Youjie and Xu Bin, were present, as they are the Director of Administration and the Director of Logistics, respectively.

"Everyone is here, so before we start the meeting, let me first briefly outline the situation."

Seated at his principal meeting position, Ding Yue began, "Director Chen Ping is not here; you all know that he’s leading the team constructing the new Cairo City in the Pharaoh Kingdom, so I’ll personally brief you on some matters. Our Mist City Arts and Science University has been increasing enrollment each year, leading to a growing student population. Over a year ago, the university leadership began planning and constructing the South Campus to consider the campus’s capacity. Now, after over a year, the South Campus construction is mostly complete, with some remaining work to be finished in the first half of this year. By the second half, after the new admissions in September, or rather before that, we need to decide which departments and majors will relocate to the South Campus for daily teaching work."

After Ding Yue’s remarks, the deans in the meeting room began discussing.

After all, this matter concerns each of them.

Over the years, everyone has grown accustomed to this campus; who would willingly leave the current teaching environment for an entirely new teaching area?

Even though the South Campus is not far from the current campus, just below University Town, people hesitate to leave their comfort zone once accustomed to it.

"So today, let’s have a democratic discussion on the current teaching situation and future teaching planning, and let’s have a comprehensive discussion,"

Ding Yue said to the deans, "What are your opinions, everyone?"

"Principal Ding, I suggest that with our current campus, where teaching is quite established, we could consider keeping the traditional departments and majors here while relocating the emerging departments and majors to the new campus. This would also provide emerging departments and majors with more expansive teaching space."

At this moment, one dean suggested.

Evidently, this dean oversees a traditional department.
