As more and more people regard education as an essential part of life, universities and colleges receive more and more financial support from all walks of life. However, two different voices are heard from the public: Some people claim that sports and social activities should have equal financial support as classes and libraries, other people have the opposite one. From my perspective, sports and social activities make a complete campus life together with classes and libraries. Therefore, support social activities should receive the same financial support as libraries.

At first, Plenty of financial support makes it possible for the university to hold many sports and social activities. These activities provide chances for students to have some outdoor activities that good for their physical and mental health. For instance, Joining a sports meeting and taking participating in various projects can remind students of the importance of health, motivate children’s inspiration to keep themselves fit, boost their interests in running, swimming and so on. Some social activities like concerts isolate students from high-pressure study and give a chance to students who are fans of music to play their musical instruments and enjoy the music. Through participating in those activities, students can not only relax themselves to get better mental health but also have chances to keep physical health.

Students need to develop in various fields, not only focus on academic study. Financial support for sports and social activities can provide precious chances for students who have talents for sports or music to make progress more efficiently. My best friend in elementary school was chosen by a provincial coach in a school running race and then began her professional sports career.

Admittedly, for most universities, their first target is to help students make excellent academic performance. However, it cannot be the only target. The whole society needs talents from all walks of life rather than someone only knows to study. In a nutshell, I strongly agree that sports and social activities should attain equal financial support as classes and libraries to benefit students’ physical health, mental health, and all-rounded development.
