From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The reason why UIR should be linked to BLCU:
According to the BLCU page: "Beijing Language and Culture University .... is the only one of its kind in China with its main task set at teaching the Chinese language and culture to foreign students."
While this is historically true it is no longer the case. The mandate of UIR-CIE is the same as that of BLCU. Therefore these two institutions are the only two institutions in China officially sanctioned by the Ministry of education with this stated purpose. Therefore I had added a link between the two. BLCU and UIR-CIE are now counterparts or perhaps competitors. UIR-CIE is emerging as an alternative for BLCU. (I will also try to add to BLCU in the future) BLCU is close to capacity with classes ranging up to 30 students. Therefore, it is important that the link be demonstrated between UIR-CIE and BLCU as it is quickly becoming an alternative.
- Many Chinese universities have some language centers for foreign students. Your statement is out of proportion. Eiiaia 15:27, 25 October 2006 (UTC)
