Columbia University is one of the five oldest universities in the United States, a member of the Ivy League, and its history is even older than the United States. ◎Small, Columbia University is located in the upper city of Manhattan. Thirty years ago, the campus was still a high-end residential area for British and Dutch residents. The Grand Presidential Memorial Hall, the world's largest St. Paul's Cathedral outside the Vatican, and the riverside park are all near Columbia University.

However, the vicissitudes of life and the changes of the years, the current Columbia University has been selected by the "New York Times" in recent years as the third among the ten worst universities in the United States. It is very interesting that the top five universities in the list are all well-known world-class universities. For example, the University of Southern California topped the list, Hopkins University ranked second, Yale University ranked fourth, and Duke University ranked fifth.

In fact, the campus of Columbia University is still very safe. Even in the middle of the night, the campus police are constantly patrolling. In addition, there are alarm helpers everywhere on the campus. As long as students press the button, the campus police will come to help at the first time.

The reason why Columbia is known as one of the most chaotic and dangerous universities in the United States is that it is surrounded by black communities. While Upper Manhattan is the most well-known affluent area in the United States, the Upper East Side is one of the most expensive places in the country. But these wealthy areas are usually limited to the area between 60th Street and 80th Street. Above 90th Street is New York's famous Harlem, which is one of the most dirty and dangerous places in New York.

There is a very famous line in the TV series "Beijing-Jingren in New York". If you love someone, send him to New York, because it is heaven; if you hate someone. Just send him to New York, because it is heaven and hell!

Manhattan is precisely the most realistic of this contradiction. There is only a thin line between heaven and hell! On one side is the splendid and intoxicated high society; on the other side is the filthy, chaotic and dark underworld. The flowery world of New York will always be a paradise for the rich! Like Li Xuan, for example. When you go out, there will be a driver and a luxury car to pick you up, and a bodyguard assistant will accompany you.

Li Xuan's destination today is Columbia University. The campus of Columbia University is actually very small. As a typical urban university, and it is located in Manhattan, where the land is expensive, the school has no room to expand around.

"There are only three undergraduate colleges at Columbia University that enroll external students, and the scale is very small, less than 1,000 students per year, and they don't recruit girls!" Sophie followed Li Xuan's side and introduced many anecdotes about Columbia University in a timely manner.

When Li Xuan chose a university for his sister Li Xuan before. Also focused on Big Brother. In fact, starting from a new batch of undergraduate students enrolled in September this year, Columbia University will break this tradition that has been maintained for more than 200 years. Brother Qiang's milk tea sister in the previous life studied at Columbia University, so that the school became popular on the Chinese Internet for a while.

For Columbia in 1983, its greatest contribution to the former United States was to train the first black president of the United States of America. That's right, just over a month ago, Ohetan had just graduated from Columbia College, one of three undergraduate colleges in Columbia University. Who would have thought that this black guy, who is still unknown now, would be able to claim the US Presidential throne in thirty years.

"The current president of Columbia University is Michael Sowyn. Professor Sowyn is an old alumnus of Columbia University. He entered Columbia University in 1949 and was admitted to Columbia College immediately after graduating with an undergraduate degree in 1953. Professor Sowyn was admitted to Columbia University in 1955. After obtaining a master of law, he went to the University of Minnesota to teach for two years, and then returned to Columbia College in 1957 to teach until now.

in 1980. After the retirement of the old president, Professor William McGill, Professor Sowen was promoted from the provost to the 17th president of Columbia University! Of the two in front, the one on the left is Principal Sowen. And the one on his right is the current dean of Columbia Business School, Professor John Burton! "

Sophie followed closely behind Li Xuan. In a soft voice, he briefly explained the life of the current president of Columbia University. It's clear that she has fully entered her role. And show great talent.

"Professor Suowen, Professor Burton, I'm Xuan Li, you can call me Li, or just call me by my English name nn!" Li Xuan nodded admiringly at his assistant, then walked up quickly. , said to the two with a smile.

"Mr. Li, you are welcome to choose Columbia University, I believe this is a very correct choice!" Principal Suowen and Li Xuan hugged cordially.

The most important job of American principals is never to manage school affairs, but to collect donations. Today's Li Xuan, in the eyes of Principal Sowen, is a moving dollar.

That's right, Li Xuan is here to spread his wealth! A check for $10 million, which is donated to the entire Columbia. Another check for $5 million, earmarked for Columbia Business School! The ba course that Li Xuan is about to study is offered by Columbia Business School!

Unlike ba courses, ba courses are commercial courses that are not financially funded by the state, and universities will charge high tuition fees. But for an Ivy League school like Columbia University, it is not only a ba course that opens up business, and it is not a casual cat and dog who can come in.

In order not to smash their own brand, the school will strictly review the qualifications of applicants. And if Li Xuan didn't have the halo bonus of the world's richest man, he would definitely be screened out just because of his ungraduated college diploma.

For the big opening of the door of convenience of Columbia University, Li Xuan naturally wants to express his interest in return, and the most sincere thing is to donate! Don't look at the amount of 15 million US dollars, but Li Xuan donated it in the name of Dongfang Group today.

After some fiddling with tax accountants, most of the $15 million in donations can be deducted from taxes in a tax-free manner. It can be said that Li Xuan is only generous to the U.S. Internal Revenue Service today!

Of course, since you donate money, you must maximize the benefits. When the two parties signed the donation agreement, the flashing lights under the stage kept flashing, and the sound of "click" sounded. The world's richest man is about to enroll in Columbia University's BA program, and he has generously donated $15 million to his alma mater before he even enrolled.

Such gimmicks have attracted the attention of many major American newspapers, including The New York Times, The New York Post, and USA Today, as well as the attention of the three public television networks of nb, ab, and bs.

Li Xuan is no stranger to many Americans. Who would have thought that the richest man in the world is not an American! When Forbes magazine released its first rich list last year, it surprised countless Americans, so many Americans remembered this oriental face that grabbed the limelight of all the richest people in the United States.

After Li Xuan became the world's richest man last year, although he was hotly hyped by the world's media, he himself tried his best to avoid media interviews, which added a layer of mystery to Li Xuan. What you can't get is always the best, so the media's attention to him has never diminished.

And now it's not far from the day when Forbes magazine announced this year's richest list in August. Forbes released last year's list of America's richest people. But Dongfang Electric Company, whose main business is a large part of which is located in the United States, has created such an amazing wealth for Li Xuan that the editors of Forbes magazine cannot ignore it. The editors estimated that Li Xuan's wealth not only far exceeds that of the richest man in the United States, but should also be the richest man in the world.

In fact, "Forbes" magazine did not conduct a detailed survey of the world's richest people last year, so the title of Li Xuan, the world's richest man, is not rigorous. And "Forbes" magazine has announced as early as the beginning of the year, this year's rich list will be divided into the United States list and the world list.

Can Li Xuan continue to be the richest man in the world? This is definitely a new news that can arouse the public's great curiosity! Li Xuan had been staying in Hong Kong before, and it was not easy for the American media to interview him, but now that he has come to New York by himself, the media must not miss such a good opportunity!

In fact, for Columbia University, in addition to the benefits of donations, Li Xuan's admission is also beneficial to improving the university's image. Even the richest man in the world has traveled thousands of miles to study at Columbia University, and the elites who have not yet applied for the university entrance examination, what are you still hesitating about!

Therefore, shortly after Li Xuan arrived in the United States, Columbia University announced the news that the world's richest man will enroll in the BA course of the school's business school! And there is still some time before Li Xuan officially starts his classes in September~www.readwn.com~ Columbia University has already proudly called him an alumni of his school!

After the donation ceremony, Li Xuan held a brief press conference with Columbia's President Sowen and Dean Burton with a smile on his face. At the press conference, the two sides enthusiastically sang praised praises to each other.

Li Xuan said that Columbia University is a school with a long history and profound academic tradition. He is honored to have the opportunity to study at Columbia University, and hopes to gain new knowledge here! Principal Suowen expressed his admiration and admiration for Li Xuan who dropped out of school to start a business and created the world-renowned Dongfang Electronics Group in just a few years!

In the past, the willful Li Xuan would have been too lazy to deal with such scenes. But today, he was very cooperative, and even in the subsequent Q&A session, he patiently answered various questions from American reporters.

In fact, as early as the beginning of Columbia's announcement, major media in the United States asked about the taste of the food, and they began to contact Li Xuan through various channels, hoping that he would accept an exclusive interview or participate in a talk show interview.

Sophie had already received a thick stack of invitation letters. If it had been before, Li Xuan would definitely have pushed it away! But this time, he didn't do it! (To be continued..)
