Help move the rich poor education equity

 Recently, invited members of the CPPCC National Committee, China's pre-eminent Chen cursor interview, explained his vision of life and charity. He also recommended that: in colleges and universities to implement a larger charity, the ideological elite universities should be the liberation of that. Rich children to read these prestigious universities, can receive almost points, but high fees. Then, the money they took out the rich, to help poor kids to college, and ultimately to achieve educational equity.
Chen the idea of the cursor, can not say a bad starting point. But in essence, to this does not work.
must first see a basic fact: Despite continued calls for reform the college entrance examination, but in quite a long period, it will remain is the most fair and impartial examination of it, without distinction, whether poor rich, as long as you through their own efforts, scores of high and low before see, applies to each student. If once the score is no longer a choice between the most fundamental standards of rich kids are free to pay for college, then will lead to serious injustice.
the growing polarization between rich and poor in the current social structure, a large number of poor students access to educational resources in its own already at a disadvantage. For them, finish high school and then college, is still the most effective way to change the destiny They just study hard, get good grades, have the opportunity to go to college. but if a large number of university enrollment was diverted rich kids, their chances will certainly greatly reduced. In this way, the entrance had the best highlight the fair, move the rich poor, afraid of the trend. Once true in the university entrance, The harmful. At the same time, it could lead to a new wave of money worship.
fundamental point of view, educational fair, have to rely on national policy to increase support and financial input, balanced education through policy guidance, resource allocation , to eliminate the gap caused by the disparities in access to school.
