 International Higher Education # 39
In July 2004, we interviewed the senior vice presidents of three universities in the Shanghai area that are among the nine top-ranking institutions first selected for the 985 Project: Fudan University, Shanghai’s leading comprehensive university; Shanghai Jiaotong University, which has a high profile in science and engineering; and Zhejiang University, in nearby Hangzhou.
The vice president emphasized the fact that the university’s mission, which is undergoing continuous discussion, arises from certain widely shared basic principles—no tolerance of mediocrity, support for innovation and creativity, and a high awareness of society’s trust in the outstanding quality of its graduates.
It would not be wise to generalize from such a small sample of universities, yet it is evident that institutions shaped by the priority given to science and technology under Soviet influence in the 1950s seem to be in the best position to take the lead in new cultural initiatives.

 Guardian Unlimited Politics | Special Reports | Chris Patten's speech
Universities of every sort, if in different ways, should introduce students to the joy and discipline of scholarship, to the challenge and excitement of personal intellectual achievement, to the social and historical context of knowledge and learning.
Independent universities should be regarded as part of the infrastructure of an open and plural society, inculcating the values of tolerance, moderation and freedom that help to keep our country more or less civilised.
While, as I have argued, you cannot equate economic growth and university expansion, there is plainly a relationship between the quality of universities and the intellectual capital of a country, and it is that capital on which we draw for our well-being.
