By the way, what nnoble said is totally true in the program I mentioned, and perhaps that is why it is eventually dead

I understand your concerns. There used to be a similar program at YNU in which students were to prepare their language in the first two years for the overseas study at a University in Canada (sorry I forget its name). I asked students in the program about whether their parents were satisfied or not with the quality of education, and most of them told me that their parents did not care, as long as they got the chance to go abroad. The program I mentioned is gone, but I think the problems remains pretty much the same. Very few parents know what they want for their kids in terms of overseas study, however ambitious they are. For such programs, sincere and constant communication with parents will definitely help students a lot but I guess there is no such mechanism since it might hurt the prospect of the program...

I am a MTI student at YNU. Let me share with you a true story from one of my undergraduate classmates.

Since this story concerns his interests, I shall call him Jack. Jack started his college as a Japanese major student. A year later he switched his major to English after failures in Japanese examinations. Then he spent most of his time on DOTA, parties, etc. and barely made it through all the courses and got credits required for graduation. After graduation he joined a language training center and was responsible for enrolling students. I originally thought that his routine work was mainly administrative, but he told me that he actually taught students on CET 4! After two years working in that center, he left with other two colleages and started up a new company doing the same thing. Now he is one of the few shareholders of the company and plans to buy an apartment near YNU Chenggong campus (you can imagine how much he has earned throughout these years). His company has dozens of "teachers" and hundreds of students. The bussiness is booming...Seems so surreal, isn't it?

I totally agree with you. As a MTI student, I should always be careful with transliteration.

Can you please tell us the source of the news? You should know that euthanasia is illegal in China and the common practice of treating dying people in Chinese hospitals is to prolong the patient's life and alleviate his pain if possible. If a doctor take any measure to accelerate a patient's death, he will end up in jail.
