After Chongqing was directly governed, only the names of Sichuan Academy of Fine Arts and Sichuan International Studies University remained. Why?
This question is actually very simple. You must know that when universities such as "Sichuan Mei" and "Sichuan Foreign Languages ??Universities" were established, Chongqing, where they were located, was under the jurisdiction of Sichuan Province. It was not until 1997 that the central government decided to establish Chongqing as a municipality directly under the Central Government. Separated from Sichuan. But why didn’t the school name be changed and the prefix Sichuan be removed? Because the name of the university is the name and does not directly conflict with the administrative division. Moreover, its existence has a sense of age and a richer historical background. The most important thing is that alumni at home and abroad and people who care about it recognize these school names, passing on memories and love. Due to historical reasons
"Sichuan Mei" and "Sichuan Wai" have always grown under the jurisdiction of Chongqing, but you must know that before 1997, Chongqing was under the jurisdiction of Sichuan Province. Of course, when the school was named, it was prefixed with the prefix Sichuan. After the direct administration, a large number of schools and institutions did change their names, but there are still a small number of schools, such as "Sichuan Mei" and "Sichuan Wai", which still use school names with the prefix Sichuan. In addition to university names, there are also large corporate names. For example, "Sichuan Wei" has not changed and still uses the prefix "Sichuan". Keeping the old name is not only to pass on the memory, but also to preserve the feelings.
Always using the old name prefixed with the prefix Sichuan is mainly to pass on the history and preserve the memory. After all, the school’s original name and the school grew up in this hot land. Alumni and people who love and care about her at home and abroad have deep feelings for her that are difficult to let go of. For academic educational institutions, the most important thing is to provide good teaching, and nothing else is important. "Sichuan Mei" and "Sichuan Wai" already have legal trademarks and enjoy a good reputation. Just like a person's name, they can be used for life.
After decades of running schools, “Sichuan Mei” and “Sichuan Foreign Language School” have already registered legal trademarks, and their reputation has long been well-known at home and abroad. Alumni are all over the world. With this famous business card, the school’s identity is more prominent and its influence is greater. If you change your name easily, it will have an impact on admissions or other work. Just like a person's name, no matter where he is, he is still the same person. The name is just a symbol.
So the name is not important. What is important is how to inherit and carry forward good traditions, and strive to innovate and enhance strength.
