At universities and colleges, sports and social activities are just as important as classes and libraries and should receive equal financial support.

It has come to people’s attention that many college students cannot hold their skills in their major when they graduate. Therefore, I don’t believe that sports and social activities should receive equal financial support as same as classes and libraries.

First, I argue that the priority for college students is academic study. When I just entered college, I played badminton every day, even though the condition of my university’s badminton course was not satisfying. I was so tired that I failed to deal with my school work and got a terrible mark at the end of the first semester.

Second, college time is the only period during your life in which you can gain lots of interdisciplinary knowledge without worrying about your financial problems. Your universities and your parents would make a condition for you to concentrate on studying. For instance, if a person has already found a job, he has to face stress from his work and communication with his colleagues. He cannot be calm to focus attention on studying since he is busy with his work. He has to earn money. Thus, he has no time to gain sorts of knowledge like a college student.

Furthermore, students may do sports and social activities out of universities and colleges. For example, many of my classmates keep fit at a gym near our college and invest in the gym membership. It is no doubt that a commercial site can offer a better condition than a college. And for social activities, there are so many cafes and pubs around my college. They are comfortable and commodious and we always hold parties there.

Accordingly, it is unnecessary for colleges to spend much money on supporting sport and social activities. They should develop classes and libraries to enhance their students’ academic ability.

It has come to people’s attention that many college students cannot master  skills in their major when students graduate. Therefore, I don’t believe that sports and social activities should receive as much support as should things related to academic study.

I was so tired that I failed to finish my school work and got a terrible mark at the end of the first semester.

Second, college time is the only period during a person’s life in which he can gain plenty of interdisciplinary knowledge without worrying about financial problems. Universities would support you to concentrate on studying. For instance, having settled a job, a person has to face stress from his work and communication with his colleagues. He would be too busy to focus on studying since he gets lots of work to do. He has to earn money. Thus, he has no time to gain knowledge like a college student.

Furthermore, students may do sports and social activities out of universities and colleges. For example, many of my classmates keep fit at a gym near our college and invest in the gym membership. As a commercial site, the gym can offer better conditions than the college. For social activities, there are so many cafes and pubs around my college and they are comfortable and commodious. We always hold parties there.

Accordingly, it is unnecessary for colleges to spend much money supporting sport and social activities. They should develop classes and libraries to enhance their students’ academic ability.

It has come to people’s attention that many college students cannot master their expertise when graduate. That might be because they spend too much time on extracurricular activities. Therefore, I don’t believe that sports and social activities should receive as much support as academic study since it will mislead students sill further.

First, I believe that academic study is the priority for college students. When I just entered college, I played badminton every day even though the conditions of my university’s badminton course were not satisfying. I was so tired that I failed to finish my school work. Needless to say, I got a terrible mark at the end of the first semester.

Second, college time might be the only period during a person’s life in which he can gain plenty of interdisciplinary knowledge without worrying about financial problems since the university always offers financial support to students to concentrate on studying. However, having settled a job, a person has to suffer the burden from his work and the stress from communication with his colleagues. Thus, he has neither the time nor the energy to gain knowledge like a college student.

Furthermore, students can do sports and participate in social activities out of universities and colleges. For example, many of my classmates invest in a gym membership to keep fit near our college. As a commercial facility, the gym can offer better conditions than the college. For social activities, there are  many cafes and pubs around my college. They are so comfortable and commodious that they satisfy the conditions for us to hold parties.

Accordingly, it is unnecessary for colleges to spend much money supporting sport and social activities. Instead, the fund should incline to develop classes and libraries to enhance  students’ academic ability.

Nowadays many graduates of colleges fail to master their expertise when they leave schools and enter society. This might because they’ve spent too much time on extracurricular activities in college. Meanwhile, an increasing number of colleges are placing a bigger emphasis on student’s sports and social events. Now here comes the issue, should student’s activities be valued as high as regular classes and academic facilities? I think the answer is definitely no.

First, the argument that academic study is the priority for college students is a cliché that needs no more reiteration. Nevertheless, even though we know this above argument, it’s still difficult for us to follow it. When I first entered college, I joined a badminton club. Since the conditions of my school’s badminton course were so fascinating, I spent the most time on training. I was so tired each day after exercise that I even failed to finish my school work, a student’s basic obligation. Needless to say, I got a terrible mark at the end of the semester.

Second, college time might be the one and only period in which people have the opportunity to gain plenty of interdisciplinary knowledge. Since poor students can always receive subsidies from university, their sources of livelihood will just become less of an issue. Hence they can devote themselves to their academic study. However, having entered the society, most people have to suffer from the burden of their work and the stress of interpersonal relationships. Therefore, they have neither time nor energy to absorb knowledge like a college student.

Furthermore, students can do sports and participate in social activities off-campus. Off the top of my head is the better conditions provided by some commercial facilities. For example, many of my classmates have become members of a gym near our college. The gym offers all sorts of fitness equipment which you can hardly see in a college. And for social activities, there are many cafes and pubs dotted around my college. They are so comfortable and commodious that they of course meet all the requests to hold parties or other social events.

Overall, I see little reason why colleges should spend a lot of money supporting sport and social activities. Instead, every piece of evidence points to the opposite direction: in order to enhance students’ academic learning, the larger proportion of school’s funding should invest in improving classes and updating academic facilities.
