Technology help people solve problems in our physical aspects but cannot deal the questions in people's mind of different races. Because old problems, such as wars between two countries, rich men getting too much money from the labor of poor, and worse environment, constantly disturb humanity. Therefore, people want to find a peaceful and efficient way to enhance the understanding among different people. Global university is one of the products of these thoughts, and it may really help young people deal with these old problems.
Students in global university may have a vivid feeling of other races' habits and moralities, so some doubts about people's strange activities in other societies may be explained in daily lives. Furthermore, students can learn how to respect others' habits from normal activities. We cannot negate that some conflicts beginning from impoliticly disturbing others' habits just like we eat meat in front of an Arab. To them, it is the information of provocation, but to us, it is caused by our innocence. But students in global university may forgive other students at the first time and patiently explain their own experiences and habits to others. That may be the best way to translate the culture of various races to the world and the peaceful method to eliminate the misunderstanding among different cultures.
On the other hand, the global university is also a quicker method reducing the range between developed countries and developing countries. With the communication in technology, science, art, and economics, all the students have the equal chances to contact with the foremost knowledge and the best study environment. What is more, they also easily learn from each other to enhance their abilities as businessmen or politicians or artists. In the future they can take what they learn from the global university back to their own country and support the constructions with better and newer methods.
Some global problems may be solved easier in the future because people from different countries had got the same education and training in their studying time. For example, the all world is worried about the unclear atom energy problems today. We realize that unclear atom energy has many advantages like more clear energy source and affording more power to people if this energy not be used to make arms. We may find it is not so difficult to come to an agreement on the object of unclear atom energy in the times of our offspring. They may translate their opinions to each other more smoothly than today’s country leaders for they have deeper understanding about other countries’ conditions. The same thing may occur in environment problems. If a completely global protecting system can be operated by future people, it may control better on the destroying of water air and nature by factories and private commodities.
A global university will be a bridge, taking humanity to a beauty future. Our dream of peace wealth and beautiful world will come true by people's understanding of each other.
