Ma Liang said: "Mr. Zhang's criticism of liberal arts and self-black liberal arts is more because he is dissatisfied with the existing education and training system of liberal arts. It is often said that the liberal arts curriculum is very watery, and when talking about the construction of new liberal arts, we also hope to change such a status quo and make the liberal arts stronger and harder. ”
Disciplines vary greatly, but each discipline has its value and strengths. Ma Liang believes that because the liberal arts have some deficiencies in cultivating talents in the past, they have always been such a stereotype and colored glasses.
