Recently the discussion about whether or not to have the

university

built in our

community

becomes a hot topic in our n

eighborhood.

Some people consider that

Suggestion

the university

will bring more advantages than disadvantages to our

community

and agree with the suggestion; another group has a different standpoint. They think that establishing a

university

in our

community

will generate more disadvantages to our

community

. Personally, I believe the proverb, ‘one coin, both sides’. Of course, establishing a

university

also

has advantages and disadvantages as well. There are many advantages of establishing a new

university

in our

community

First

Suggestion

the university

can bring prosperity to our

community

For example

, when the

university

is built, it will attract many students to come to study.

Therefore

, the needs of the students will increase

such

as the articles for daily use.

Then

we may consider running stores and restaurants near the

university

Therefore

, more job opportunities will be provided, and the local people will have the priority to get the jobs. As the result, people can work to support their family financially, at the same time they are able to take care of their families without leaving distance as c

Second

, when the

university

is built, the government will take into account improving the system of transportations. They may build subway connected to the city, which will bring us more conveniences and attract more people to come f

investments. We can predict that as soon as the subway is built, our house price will be increased immediately.

Consequently

Suggestion

The second advantage

is that when the

university

is built, the government may investigate money to improve the environment around our

community

For example

, building a park is necessary for the student to have entertainment or relaxation when they have free time.

Building a

university

is not just building a construction it

also

requires the whole equipment, the campus, the libraries, and the roads etc. What if our

? Where shall they live?

This

is a big issue that we need to take into account. To sum up, building a

has advantages and disadvantages as well.

Therefore

, before making the decision we shall consider both aspects and measure them carefully.

On the one hand, some of them provide sports advantages to every individual and on the other hand, other countries who are not developed enough make them limited to their top athletes and in my viewpoint, it is, a negative development.
