我看東海大學的校園環境之過去、現在、與未來 (草草)

Hanching Chung (新生歲月) - 7 小時前
我與陳兄長談,知道他對東海校園還有熱情,所以就想到開個討論會。 美國的徐錚學長 (1973級),很快就有下述的回音。 徐學長在去年11月的台北慶祝晚會上,當著董事長、董事、校友面,建議校方應花大錢,請世界級任的公司,規劃整個校園。 我想這信或許供我們的大目標之參考 (我們第一步都還未踏出呢,不過也不可低估我們的"潛力")。 徐學長的信: Cheng Hsu7:34 PM (1 hour ago) to me 2:59 PM (6 hours ago) This makes sense. I like the theme of this symposium, which touches a chore in my heart. However, if you would spend time on this topic, you might as well take on a substantial target to go beyond. I would encourage you to treat it as a first step toward planning a grand vision/design for the whole campus, focusing on the development of the second campus ... 更多 »




hans 載我們才知道昭人的悶怒: 我說他們



由於忘記帶電話,向偉強求助,而他是在德國回信 ---據老師說他們家暑假到北德,寒價南德。2位小孩已經都是衛道中學的高材生---此校已遷地,原處蓋衛道新世界等,。

謝 老師請全國大飯店自助餐,1000/人。之後逛草悟道,我送的酒和2本書等寄放勤美,免費。老師和師母的服飾 (窄褲)和鞋 (軍鞋?) 帽 (英國Kangoloo)都是刻意準備的。相較之下我隨便多了。再到春水堂*秋山堂去, 他們善用老年補助3500元/月,每月千元交通補助,公車8公理免費等等,去許多地方, 包括基隆的黃色小鴉。談美麗島和民進黨等, 他又發作.....。
hans解釋今年起日本年金的小修正每人少.....



回到台中,人們說IKEA很大,必須從一端逛到另一端才有洗手間。
又說是室內設計,家具等,準備給你全搬回去。......世人多不知道這家全球企業的老闆如何節稅。
管理學新生: IKEA Shoppers Surprised by Beethoven Flash Mob /IKEA道歉/ 是促销还是不良竞争?

老郭
全家新春快樂!
您們短期內不來,那我要想辦法去香港 (我的護照過期,竟然懶得去更新) ,或讓您們來台北/台中。
你同意我在東海或Essex 大學, 以令尊的名義設獎學金嗎?
(請你考慮一下再回答)
再次敬祝
闔家平安

阿擘
建議你把東海路54號搞成類似胡小姐般的友情中心吧!
房子的擺設先只弄絕對必須的,其它可邊住邊隨需要/喜好兒補充---這是重要的原則。


中國司機的激情演出,我幾年前在廣東中山也領教過,我判斷這些話是發洩, 聽聽就好,因為內容有假設,人數"微不足道".....


晚上 blogging等等


校長的錯字並不稀奇。以前臺大也出過錯.....這條是要看過那天會改正(since 2013.11月)
今年10月起,我很榮幸從汪群從董事長的禮讓中,接下了TEFA董事長的職務。未來母校的募款工作將不會再是多頭馬車。就友室(sic)承接校友聯繫與固定募款之責,

"THE CONSECRATED EMINENCE" :The Story of the Campus and Buildings 
of Amherst College By STANLEY KING, I951 這是麻州名校 AMHERST COLLEGE 一百多年的學校建築物及人物的故事。我最驚訝的卻是: 它引 Ecclesiasticus Chapter 38 德訓篇38的, 跟現在讀"思高聖經本"的內容和感覺,差別很大----它贊揚那些蓋校舍的匠人...... 多"正面思考"而非一味推崇經師.....
There are approximately 20,000 living alumni, of which about 60% make a gift to Amherst each year—one of the highest alumni participation rates of any college in the country.[66]
