<p>More than 300 school principals, presidents and high-ranking authorities from different elementary, junior, high schools and universities, showed their concerns toward the minority students who cannot afford their education during a conference at National Taiwan Normal University (NTNU) today.</p>
<p>NTNU President Gou Yih-shun (郭義雄) and Legislative Speaker Wang Jin-pyng (王金平) organized the “2009 Education Conference” and invited these participants, who are all NTNU alumni, to discuss issues that concern education, such as the decreasing number of students and the way-too-easy entrance exams for the admissions to colleges.</p>
<p>"With our experiences, I am sure that we can work something out to fix the problem,” Gou said.</p>
<p>The president made his remarks during his addressing to the participants at the auditorium.’</p>
<p>They began to move to classrooms at Cheng and Jeng Buildings where group discussions were held, right after Gou’s opening speech.</p>
<p>In the meantime, these NTNU alumni also participated in the “Hoping Download” charity activity, which was designed to help those poor junior and high school students who cannot afford their tuition fees.</p>
<p>"What we have discussed today will be directly distributed to the Ministry of Education to make sure that our voices are heard,” Gou said.</p>
