中央人民政府高等教育部、中央人民政府教育部‘關於全國高等學校一九五四年暑期招考新生的規定’公布了。七月中旬將在中央統一計劃下在全國七十七個考區同時舉行考試,爲全國高等學校錄取合格的新生。全國高等學校招生工作,是極爲繁重細緻的組織工作。做好這個工作,是保證全國高等學校在國家過渡時期相應地培養各項建設人才的首要步驟。因此,中央及各地的有關部門,必須根據高等學校招考新生的規定,周密計劃,密切配合,做好一切準備工作。自一九五二年實行全國範圍的統一招生以來,基本上全面地完成了全國高等學校招生計劃。一九五三年認真地總結了以往的經驗教訓,明確地指出了統一招生的方針是在統一招生的原則下,照顧不同學校不同系科的要求和特點,注意報考學生的質量,作好工農速成中學畢業生及革命幹部升入高等學校的工作,加强升學指導的思想教育,結果新生入學報到率顯著提高,學生質量也比往年有顯著提高。但就一九五三年的招生工作來說,由於領導方面對招生工作的複雜性認識不足,過多地把具體事務集中在全國高等學校招生委員會,沒有充分組織和發揮各地區有關部門及各高等學校和各高級中學的力量;加以考期較遲,時間緊迫,計劃不够週密,致使招生工作仍有不少缺點。首先是考試前升學指導教育不及時、不普遍、不深入,未能使學生根據國家建設的全面需要和自己的實際條件來選擇學校和系科專業,以致報考某些一系科和某些學校 The Ministry of Higher Education of the Central People’s Government and the Ministry of Education of the Central People’s Government have announced the “Regulations on the National Summer Refresher Examinations for Colleges and Universities”. In mid-July, examinations will be held in seventy-seven examination areas across the country under the Central Unified Plan to enroll qualified freshmen across the country. The recruitment of colleges and universities across the country is an extremely heavy and meticulous organization. Doing this job well is the first step to ensure that the national colleges and universities in the national transition period cultivate the various construction talents accordingly. Therefore, the relevant departments of the Central Government and localities must make careful planning and close cooperation in accordance with the regulations for recruiting freshmen in colleges and universities and do all the preparations. Since the implementation of the unified national enrollment in 1952, the National Enrollment Plan for Higher Education has basically been completed. In 1953, we carefully summed up past experiences and lessons and clearly pointed out that the principle of unified enrollment is to take care of the requirements and characteristics of different departments of different schools under the principle of unified enrollment, pay attention to the quality of students enrolled in the exams, and prepare the workers and peasants. The graduates and revolutionary cadres of the accelerated secondary school have been promoted to colleges and universities, and their ideological education for further education has been strengthened. As a result, the arrival rate of freshmen has significantly increased, and the quality of students has also improved significantly compared to previous years. However, for the enrollment work of 1953, due to the lack of understanding of the complexity of the recruitment work of the leaders, they focused too much on the specific issues of the National College Admissions Committee, and did not fully organize and use the relevant departments and higher levels of the regions. The strength of schools and various high schools is delayed, the time is tight, and the plans are not thorough enough, resulting in many shortcomings in the admissions process. First of all, it is not timely, not universal, and in-depth to educate students before the exam. It fails to enable students to choose schools and department majors according to the overall needs of the country’s construction and their actual conditions, resulting in the admission of certain departments and certain schools.
