Script: 育/Education
*Announcer: Boys and Girls. The sculpture
before you is titled “Education.” Why education? To make it clear to you, we
put together a skit, presented by ducks living nearby. Enjoy it.
--Ducky Duck: Ai ya ya. . . . I don’t wanna
go back to the classroom. I don’t like math. I don’t like English. I just wanna
hang out here, enjoying the sunshine, and the water in the pond.
++Yellow Duck: So, you are here, Ducky
Duck. Teacher is asking for you. She sent me here to get you. What are you up
to here?
--Can’t you see I’m having fun in the sun?
Go tell Teacher I’m not going back to the classroom. I don’t like school. I don’t
wanna learn. I just wanna play all day.
++OK. You can play all day, doing nothing.
But, in the middle of your play, you’ll get hungry, right? Where is your meal?
--My Mom will cook for me.
++But your Mom will get old and die
someday. After that, who gonna cook for you?
--Well, I’ll be old enough then and I’ll
cook for myself.
++You will cook for yourself. But what to
cook? First of all, you need to do grocery shopping. The problem is: who gonna
give you money to do so?
--. . . . . .Well, well, I don’t know.
++Good for you that you don’t know. The
answer is in the classroom. Classroom. Get it? Classroom means education. Now,
let’s go see our teacher.
--After you.
小知識:
陳清義,臺灣屏東人,生於民國十七年(1928),卒於民國八十六年(1997)。民國三十六年(1947)考入臺灣省立農學院農藝系,畢業後任教農校,後來應聘回母校擔任講師,並升任副教授。以國科會獎學金赴日本留學,獲九州大學農學博士學位,再返回母校任教,先後擔任植物系主任、臺中夜間部主任。
民國七十七年(1988)出任國立中興大學校長,成為建校七十年來第一位校友出身的校長。任內鑑於很多系館破舊,使用空間不足,乃展開繼羅雲平校長後又一波擴建工程,包括農業環境科學大樓、農業機械大樓、作物科學大樓、理學院大樓、綜合教學大樓、生命科學大樓、土木環工大樓、惠蓀堂等,以及忠明南路地下道工程。
此外,開發研究用自動儀器,促進實驗自動化。加強校際交流,與國外三十五所著名大學建立學術合作與交流。增設歷史研究所、中文研究所、外文研究所,文學院發展獲關鍵性突破,使中興大學更富人文色彩及綜合大學規模。
兩屆校長任期滿後即回植物系所任教。民國八十五年(1996)榮獲中興大學第一屆傑出校友。
