Some groups, such as poor people and people from rural areas, think universities should make it especially easy for them to get access to university education. To what extent do you agree or disagree？

When it comes to the disadvantaged groups in the society, people always believe that they should be given special concern in various fields including higher education. As far as I am concerned, the disprivilagd students, such as those who live in poverty, should be cared for, but not given privileges in terms of entry to universities.

Some people, with a compassionate attitude toward students from poor families and rural areas, attempt to justify the educational privilege offered by universities to them, reasoning that it will help to compensate for the deficiency of their previous education. It is beyond dispute that educational diaparities do exist in different social groups. To illustrate, the less developed regions may not have been provided with sufficient facilities for education, i.e. schools and classrooms, and high tuition fees have denied poor students’ access to some renowned learning institutes. However, both those problems should be fixed by the government in the primary and secondary phases of their education. It is simply not reasonable to leave this responsibility to universities, which, as is known to all, are the place for scientific research and higher education.

Further, there would be problems if certain social groups were granted with exceptional advantages in college education. For one thing, it is a violation of the priciple of fair competition; for another, students admitted to a university without adequate knowledge and skills will be likely to feel inferior to the other students, which will consequently result in some psychological problems.

To draw a conclusion, sympathy to the less privileged groups is understandable, but the proper approach to solve their educational problems is to invest more in the teaching and learning facilities available to them, so as to equip them with equal eligibility for being admitted to universities.
