社评 1229 哈佛大学女校长

哈佛大学女校长

世界名校哈佛上週任命五十一岁的盖伊院长出任首位黑人女校长 ，这是哈佛大学首位非裔校长， 也是第二位哈佛女校长。

即将卸任的校长白乐瑞称讃她是位具有敏锐头脑正派善良的领导者， 将会带领哈佛成為世界思想及造福人类,的领导者。

盖伊校长和我们许多人有非常相似之处 ，她的父母是来自海地之移民家庭， 她始终相信教育是能够改变人生之最佳途径。

我们从最近先后出任哈佛及莱斯大学校长的黑人校长 ，她们同时具有第一代移民家庭之背景， 也是拼命努力求学及良好之人格素养，才能登上领导世界第一流大学校长之宝座。

长久以来， 包括我们在内的美国少数族裔一直在抱怨社会之不公平及歧视， 究其部分原因虽然有歷史因素 ，但是许多还是我们对社会之影响力不够 ，尤其在领导阶层， 这也许是和我们家庭教育息息相关。

我们最近正在筹备在美南电视台中推出「青少年演说领袖训练营」，聘请名师教导年轻人如何在大庭广眾中发表演说， 展现领导力， 希望将来也会出现一位哈佛华裔校长。

Harvard named first Black woman President

A distinguished scholar Dr. Lauding Gay will become 30th new president of Harvard University on July 1 next year.

Since 2018 She served as the dean of Harvard’s Faculty and Arts and Science the daughter of Haitian immigrants Gray received her bachelor degree from Stanford and Ph.D from Harvard .

Speaking after her selection Gay said “ I am humbled by confidence that the governing boards have placed in me and by the prospect of succeeding President Bacow in leading this remarkable institution. “

President Gay is very similar to many of us. Her parent are immigrants from Haiti they always believed that education is the best way to change people’s life.

For long time American minorities including Asians have been complaining about social injustice and discrimination. Although some of the reasons are historical factors many of them still have insufficient influence on society especially in the leadership level which may be closely related to our family education.

We are currently preparing to launch the “young speech leadership Training camp” to teach young generation how to make speech and show their leadership. We hope one day Harvard will name a Asian American President.
