The following article just appeared in the Wall Street Journey.  The story about Yale University is very interesting and perhaps could shed a little light on NCKU's quest towards its destiny under President Lai's leadership.

Yale Safeguards Its Top Spot

America's big research universities are the best in the world today. But General Motors once was the world's mightiest auto maker.

China's Beijing, Tsinghua, Fudan and Zhejiang universities aren't world class-yet. Nor are the National University of Singapore, University of Hong Kong or Seoul National University. But they mean to get there. The Chinese, in particular, are investing heavily to that end. Yet many U.S. universities are complacent, preoccupied with internal intrigue and rivalry with one another.
