the nation's most prestigious enginerring university..going throhg a crisis

a solid majority of school members...

as in most conflicts, neither side can be completely right or wring in this ugly controntation..

his corrent predicamenet comes in stark contrast to six years agon when he arrived a the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technoloy holding high a banner of reform..

he toughened the screenign for professors's promotion and tunure, mandated the use of only English in all lectures and stripped students failing to earn a grade point average of 3.0 of scholarhsips..

donations rushed in..

this was shocking even in a coutnry with a notoriously high suicide rate..

an overwhelming majority..

external pressure ot expel him..

the direction and tempo of the reform..

in an objective and merit-based manner..

prsuing scholastic depth..

the punitive tuition system based on only GPA can retrograde to single-track education, smothering creatvie ability..

one-way communication..

full of relentless competition and greades-are-everythign stress..

an educator with sutdents' well-being at heart..

need more warm-hearted and more humane leaders rather than ruthless pushers..
