Taiwanse students of today simply cannot compare to those from the PRC in terms of determination and willingness to work hard. In the PRC, only the best of the best are able to study abroad. Opportunities are hard to come by, so they are very serious and hard-working. As a result a growing number of assistant and associate professors in American universities come from the PRC.
我們學生的物質條件優渥，但追求學問的拚勁不復當年；反觀中國大陸學生，勤奮用功的程度絕非今日台灣大學生可比，出國留學者更是百中選一，機會難得，因此非常認真努力，現在美國很多重要大學的助理教授、副教授都是大陸籍。
