关于地方高校转制的思考

除少数发达地区外，多数地方高校教育经费水平很低，生均教育经费不足部属高校的一半，主要原因是地方政府投入不足。转制是地方高校摆脱困境的出路之一。高校转制是高等教育体制的根本性改革，实际操作中确实存在一定的困难，但是只有改革才会有出路。高校转制可考虑从五个方面推进，一是从政府到高校提高对转制的认识；二是有组织有计划地进行试验；三是明晰转制高校产权；四是允许转制高校营利；五是加强对转制高校的监管。

Reflections on the Structural Reform in Local Colleges and Universities

Except for a few developed areas, the educational appropriations for local colleges and universities stay at a low level in most regions. The educational spending per student is less than half of that for the institu- tions of higher learning under the Ministry of Education. The major reason is the inadequate input from the lo- cal government. One of the ways to help local schools get out of the predicament is structural reform. As the structural reshaping is the fundamental reform in the higher education system, there will be some operational difficulties in practice. However, reform is the only way out. So we suggest that the awareness of the signifi- cance of the structural reform should be enhanced on the part of the government, planned experiments should be made, the property rights of the school should be made explicit in the process of the reform, the school in which the reform has been made should be allowed to make profits, and the supervision over such colleges and universities should be reinforced.
