Chapter 756: Miss Gothic Is in Bad Luck (Part 1)

Victor, Schiller and Anna have always been worried about vocational education in Gotham.

Victor is because he really likes teaching and educating people, Schiller wants to improve the overall education level of Gotham residents, and Anna thinks that students from vocational education schools can provide Gotham University with better students, rather than recruiting a group of desperate illiterates every year.

Due to the special geographical location of Gotham University, it is almost difficult to recruit good students from big cities. The high-quality students on the entire East Coast either enter the Ivy League or go to other universities in the metropolis. Almost no one will risk their lives to go to Gotham to study.

Those who come to Gotham to study are basically students who have no choice but to come here because they want to go to college, and local students who want to stay in Gotham.

It is difficult for these two types of people to have high talents and qualities. Out-of-town students generally come from small seaside towns like Blüdhaven. Since they can't go to universities in the surrounding big cities, they can only take the risk to come to Gotham. Students from such places have poor foundations due to the poor local education level, and it is very difficult to teach them.

Not to mention the local students in Gotham. The local students in Gotham are generally divided into two categories. One category is really good at studying, but because they don't want to leave their hometown, they didn't take the exam to go to other places.

However, these students are the most orthodox native residents of Gotham. They have all the good qualities of Gotham citizens. Therefore, although they are talented, they are very difficult to discipline. Their minds are not on studying at all. As long as they don't use their high IQ to commit crimes, it's a blessing.

Another type of local students are the descendants of gangsters who are similar to Yin Wensi. The gang leaders don't want their children to learn any knowledge from school. They just think that the title of college students is better, so they send them to gild.

There are also good students like Yin Wensi, but the number is too small, and most of their energy is focused on running the family business. They come to school just for the sake of going through the motions and it is impossible for them to study seriously.

Such a student source composition makes it difficult for Gotham University to rank among the top universities on the East Coast. To put it bluntly, it is basically at the bottom. It is only because the overall education level on the East Coast is not bad that it can barely rank in the United States.

In order to improve this situation, some Gotham University professors who do not plan to change jobs, led by Schiller, plan to start with basic education.

However, it is impossible to provide compulsory education in Gotham. There is no soil for compulsory education and universal education here. If you want more people to receive education, you can only lure them with benefits. In other words, they must learn skills and learn things that can be rewarded in a very short time before they can enter the school.

For this reason, Schiller and others have long formulated a plan for vocational education.

However, the opening of vocational education schools has encountered considerable resistance. Since they are lured by benefits, they will inevitably be trapped by benefits. Too many people want to intervene in education, want teachers and students to use them, and want schools to teach what they want to teach.

But if they really succeed, everything will return to the starting point in the end, and there is no way to achieve the goal of getting more people on the road of systematic education.

Therefore, this vocational education school must be independent of all forces, and it is not easy to do this.

However, Schiller has a ready-made point that can be used for leverage, that is, Gotham University itself.

For some reason, now this place has become his territory. All the gangs in Gotham know that no matter what happens, they cannot enter this university and disturb the students here.

If the students here do not complete their homework on time because of their reasons, something terrible will happen.

Since Schiller became a professor at Gotham University, this has become a tacit understanding among the Gotham gangs. In most cases, Gotham University is a piece of pure land in Gotham City, which can really provide a good learning atmosphere.

In this case, it is better to expand the territory of Gotham University and directly incorporate the vocational education school into the education system of Gotham University as a preparatory course for Gotham University.

In this way, more talented children can be selected from the civilian class to enter the university to study, instead of relying only on those rare geniuses and rich second-generations who want to gild.

Moreover, students of vocational education who pass the exam and enter the university will acquire a kind of learning inertia, which can well correct the rough thinking of Gotham citizens, let them think about problems with more logical thinking, and then influence their next generation.

In addition, even if they do not take the college entrance examination and only graduate from the preparatory course, they can master a skill that can make a living, which will increase the income of these people, so that they can provide better conditions for their offspring, including educational conditions.

In a series of long-term education reform plans, the first generation is actually just a test product, or a blood-making machine. In essence, it is to screen out those more rational learners and let their offspring gradually occupy the middle class of Gotham, so that it will become easier to carry out top-down reforms.

After the plan for Gotham Vocational and Technical College was finalized, Victor had been running the procedures, but because Mayor Luo Yin was in collusion with them, and the state legislature really couldn't control them, it took almost no effort, and the venue, funds, and materials were all approved.

Previously, Lex Luthor donated a new laboratory building to Gotham University. However, due to the short construction period, more than half of it has not been completed. Only one building in the first phase has been completed, and the Vocational Education College has Put it in this new building.

Gotham University is not short of funds. Therefore, the hardware and software here are good, and there is a considerable open space for practical operations. Ignoring the fact that the dormitory and classrooms are only separated by two floors, this is a perfect building. Vocational education school.

After the school was opened, the next step was to recruit students. Victor originally wanted to exclude those people who were forced into the school by gangsters, but Schiller refuted his point of view.

This time, Schiller thinks, the gangs won't be stuffing their own children into this vocational education school.

The vast majority of gang leaders are short-sighted. They only think that they have made enough money in this life, so why do their children have to work so hard? Isn't it good to just lie on the golden mountain of their own home, eat, drink and have fun?

The composition of student majors at Gotham University also illustrates this point.

The vast majority of gangster children choose majors with nice-sounding names. Art is the most popular major. Among arts, majors such as fine arts and art criticism, which sound high-end, are even more popular.

Gangs will send students to vocational education schools. Most of them are middle-level people with more flexible minds in the gang. They do not need to patrol and maintain the gang's territory every day like the bottom members. They have enough free time. At the same time, they also have the highest technical requirements. of.

In an area, the management of tap water, the arrangement of electricity, the operation method of cold storage, and the sequence of freight logistics all require this group of people to arrange and manage. And precisely because they do not have such abilities, the gangs are more eager to send them away. Go to school and let them study hard.

After reaching an agreement on this issue, Victor also agreed to the gangs sending students. However, the dispatch was conditional. Paying tuition was essential. At the same time, as long as the gangs sending students in, they must ensure that the school's school buses and trucks are available. safety, and at the same time provide the most basic material guarantee for vocational education schools.

This process is actually the most time-consuming, because you have to deal with various gangs, and no one is willing to let go when it comes to their own territory and interests. After a long negotiation, the admission list was finalized.

When seeing this list, both Victor Schiller and Anna discovered that there was a special name on it - Tracey Gold.

"What's going on? Doesn't the Goth family own a shipyard? It's also a reputable family in Gotham. Why did Mrs. Goth send his daughter to a vocational education school?" Anna obviously knew the situation in Gotham very well, she frowned She raised her eyebrows and put her finger on her chin and said: "Such a charming lady, she either learns musical instruments or art. Why would Mrs. Goethe let her learn to repair cars?"

Victor also shook his head, looking a little confused, and Schiller didn't know what Mrs. Goethe was going to do.

He speculated for a while, and then said: "I met their mother and daughter in the theater some time ago. At that time, Detective Gordon told me that the Goethe family and the Witte family were discussing an engagement."

"If that's the case, then Miss Goethe probably won't get married after finishing college, but will get married directly after graduating from a church middle school."

"Now it seems that there may be some problems with the engagement. The Goethe family may not want to be engaged to the Werther family. However, they need a reason to regret the marriage. As long as they send their daughter to college, it is impossible for little Werther to wait for Goethe. Can you marry her after you finish college? That way you can legitimately escape from the engagement."

"That makes sense." Anna and Victor nodded, and she continued: "This can also explain why Mrs. Goethe cannot wait until the official start of the university in September, and now she has to rush to send Miss Goethe up. Because if we wait until September, I’m afraid all the weddings will be finished.”

"Besides, I guess that Miss Goethe must be closely related to that boy from the Werther family." Victor's imagination was even richer. He said: "It's not good for a mother to break up her daughter by force. She can only send her daughter to school. As long as she lets her If they separate, they may forget about it in a few months.”

The three of them all nodded, feeling that their speculation was reasonable.

But at this time, Victor was in a bit of trouble. He said: "A girl from a wealthy family went to Class 3, which teaches car repair skills. Let's not talk about whether she can learn the skills. Just those truck tires. , She shouldn’t be able to move it, right?”

Schiller snorted coldly and said: "You have to move even if you can't move it. Learning is about overcoming all difficulties. If you can't move the tires, you won't move them. If you can't remove the screws, you won't remove them. If you don't know how to memorize the book backs, you still need a teacher. What to do?”

"Yes, I know these ladies very well. Despite their appearance, they can't carry their shoulders or lift their hands, and they will fall over if a gust of wind blows. But if they are allowed to go shopping, they can walk for more than ten hours without stopping. "Anna curled her lips and said.

"I don't care what the purpose of her coming here is." Schiller knocked on the table and said: "As long as you enter school, you have to study hard and succeed in your studies before you can graduate. It's the same for everyone, and Wayne can't Except, does Goethe think she is better than Wayne?"

Anna and Victor looked at each other, and both of them showed a gloating smile. Obviously, they had heard that Bruce Wayne was almost delayed by Schiller because of insufficient credits.

Schiller picked up his cane, stood up and said: "Tomorrow is the first day of the vocational education school. I will attend the whole class. If anyone dares not study hard, I will go and talk to his boss in person."

Looking at Schiller's sneer, Victor and Anna shuddered.
