The Chinese presidents and the sinicization of Christian colleges——Taking Chen Yu-guang ruling University of Naking as an example
By the end of 1920s,the fate of Christian colleges in China changed thoroughly.The Anti-Christian Movement rolling on with full force and the Take-Back-Education-Rights Movement surging led to an irresistible trend of the Sinicization of Christian colleges.One of its marked symbols was that the colleges were governed by the Chinese presidents.University of Nanking was one of the Christian colleges which were established earliest and had the biggest influence in China.Chen Yu-guang,the first Chinese president of this university,was also one of the Chinese presidents who held the post earliest and longest in Christian colleges.So a discussion on Chen Yu-guang pioneering contribution to the Sinicization of Christian colleges,is undoubtedly of typical significance to expand the study of Chinese higher education's modernization.
