The Rise of Australia

September 23, 1900, Sydney.

At a time when the wave of revelry and gratitude across Australia had not yet ended, Arthur pursued his victory and opened Australia's first university, the Australian National University, in Sydney.

This is a large university jointly invested and built by the Australian government and the royal family. The government invested one million and one pounds, the royal family invested one million pounds, and the joint venture exceeded two million pounds.

Although it has just been built, the Australian National University covers a large area, covering more than two square kilometers and a campus of more than 3,000 acres.

Although the school does not actually use such a huge area, after all, Australia is vast and sparsely populated, and there is really no shortage of land area.

Therefore, these extra areas were planned into green areas and artificial lakes, which can not only improve the natural environment of the campus, but also make good use of these extra areas.

As the only cradle in Australia that can independently cultivate high-quality talents in a short period of time, Arthur also attaches great importance to the Australian National University. He came to the site in person as soon as it was completed and met with the Minister of Education, Richard Noble Cha Pullman will be attending the first meeting of Australian universities together.

Thanks to the low requirements for campus environment in this era, most campuses of Australian National University are just simple rough buildings. Only some of the more sophisticated laboratories are decorated with fine decoration, and the cost is generally that of ordinary buildings. Several times or even dozens of times.

Australian National University.

"Mr. Principal, will His Highness and the Minister really come to our meeting?" a lecturer from the language department who came from Europe asked slightly in surprise.

In Europe, even as a senior language lecturer in a university, the highest-status people he has ever met are officials from the Ministry of Education in various countries.

But I didn’t expect that just after arriving in Australia for a few days, I would be able to meet the Australian monarch and the Minister of Education, and attend a meeting with them in person. This is simply crazy.

Hearing this question from a colleague, other teachers hired from Europe or other places also pricked up their ears, for fear of missing any word coming out of the principal's mouth.

"Of course, Lecturer James. Is what His Highness said true? Besides, the meeting will start in a while, won't you know about it later?" Wilfrid Freeman Way Enberg said with a smile.

Hearing Wilfrid Freeman Weinberg say this, the other lecturers stopped asking questions and nodded naturally.

Although most of them have only come to Australia in recent months, most of them are aware of what Arthur has done in Australia.

For such a monarch who said it all and did it all, it is really rare to see him break his promise.

Indeed, as Wilfrid Freeman Weinberg said, in less than a few minutes, Arthur entered the campus with Richard, the Minister of Education. Under the presence of several guards and lecturers, Arthur Under the guidance, we came to the meeting area where everyone was.

The area where teachers and school leaders are located is one of the few places in the school that is still decorated. A flat layer of cement has been plastered on the walls, and then a layer of lime has been added, making it look quite clean and tidy.

"Your Highness!"

Seeing Arthur walking in, everyone stood up and saluted.

Arthur nodded, sat unceremoniously at the top of the conference table, and then ordered: "Okay, let's not talk more, let's start the meeting!"

"Yes, Your Highness." President Wilfrid Freeman Weinberg stood up and responded respectfully first, and then continued: "Your Highness, ministers, and lecturers. The Australian National University started from the establishment of the project , it has gone through a construction period of more than three months. Generally speaking, our teaching area, office area and accommodation area have been basically completed and can be put into use. And some advanced laboratories involving precision and environment may It will take another two to three months of construction before it can be put into use. But generally speaking, the Australian National University will be able to start enrollment soon and can officially open within the next month."

Judging from the educational nature of the university alone, the current configuration of the Australian National University is fully sufficient for use.

As for the experiments that are still under construction, they are for use by scientists and senior professors attracted from Europe. Because there are not many scientists and professors at present, it will not matter if it is later.

"Very well, President Wilfrid Freeman Weinberg. The Australian National University has been the most important cradle of talent training in Australia for several years. It can be built in such a short period of time, and I'm very pleased that it has been put into use. So let's talk about your enrollment issues! How many students does the Australian National University plan to enroll this year, and how many students are limited to each major?" Arthur nodded with relief at first. Only then did I ask the more important question about admissions.

"Your Highness, currently because we have a limited number of teachers, our school only offers five majors, namely Mechanical Major, Physical Chemistry Major, Architecture Major, Medical Major and Literature Major. Among them, Mechanical Major and Physical Chemistry Major are very important to our It is more important for industrial development, so the number of enrollments in these two majors must be kept at least 200. The construction major and the medical major are also industries that have created a large number of vacancies due to the development of our country's infrastructure and medical care. The recruitment of talents should not be too few, at least it should be kept at more than 150 people. The second is the literature major. Australia is a multi-ethnic country composed of locals and foreign immigrants. We urgently need to cultivate Australians into a unified culture. Therefore, Literature majors should also recruit at least 100 people. From this point of view, our first batch of enrollment should be at least 800 people, so that after these students graduate, they can fill the country's talent vacancies." Wilfrid Freeman Weinberg suggested.

This is the shortcoming of Australia. Although it has a large amount of mineral resources and land, talents in Australia are also very scarce. All walks of life in the development of the country require a large number of talents.

"I approved, and I allow you to increase the number as appropriate on the basis of 800 people, but it is best not to exceed 1,500 people." Arthur nodded and said without hesitation.

Arthur liked Wilfrid Freeman Weinberg's pragmatic character very much, and this kind of talent who did no nonsense and only did business was exactly what was needed in meetings.
