择自一篇同郭校长的访谈:
咱们想知道更多对于墨大Kwong Lee Dow 这一广为人知的奖学金,究竟是甚么奖学金来的,先生们是怎么样请求,而得奖学金的先生通常又是怎么样利用这一奖学金的呢?
郭校长:这个郭理道青年奖学金机制是我在墨大退休的时分定制的,是墨尔本大学为了对我集体退职业生涯中对教育的奉献的确定,而用我的名字命名的奖学金。这一奖学金准则上是给予在维州结业,并经过考试,而入读墨尔本大学的先生的。奖学金的次要目的是让每个高中都提名一到两位结业生,让咱们斟酌是不是给予时机授与这一青年奖学金。但奖学金的评核不是简略地按先生的才能做规范的。咱们斟酌的是学校给倡议。
通常咱们授与每间学校,两位郭理道青年奖学金的时机。 通常这两个奖学金名额的调配是从学校的未几于五提名中提拔出来。墨大除了会斟酌学校高中部给予的倡议,也把提名先生平时参预的校表里流动与集体兴致结合起来,无论是先生在静止,音乐或其余畛域的领导能力,都会被学校斟酌。而墨尔本大学但愿做到的是吸纳一个涵盖面很大的学校规模,这里指的是但愿以维州每一个个学校的高中部做提拔的根底。这样使得先生们感触到,到墨大读大学,不是同样可怕或者是高不可攀的事件。这一奖学金方案的目的是但愿让十一和十二 年级的先生们能跟大学有本质性的分割,好比经过一些互联网的衔接;亲自步入墨尔本大学的一些设施,像藏书楼;能无限度地走进校园看一下;假如是乡郊学校的先生,能到大学先生宿舍住一晚,感触一下大学校园的气味这样。
当先生们实现十二年级课程的时分,他们就不会感觉墨尔本大学是一个高不可攀之处,而不克不及做报读墨大的斟酌。让考生们走进校园,同其余有相近配景,相似状况的考生多接触,而且对墨尔本大学感到很亲切,就是这一奖学金方案的中心了。。。

we’d like to know more about the Melbourne University’s prestigious Kwong Lee Dow Scholarships, what they’re about, who can apply and how students can make good use of such scholarships.
KLD: The Kwong Lee Dow Young Scholars Program was developed by Melbourne University after I’d actually finished at the university, which they very kindly named after me in recognition of what I’d done earlier. Its fundamental concern is trying to ensure that students coming to the university came from every secondary school in Victoria. The main purpose is to ensure every school, who wants to put forward one or two students for consideration, will have the opportunity to do so. This is not a scholarship that is simply on ability. It takes account of schools. There’s usually two Kwong Lee Dow scholars and they’re selected initially from a group the school puts forward, sometimes up to five names, and the university will generally take the advice of the school, but it will also look to the range of activities and interests that the students have. If you’ve got somebody who has shown some leadership, whether in a music, sporting or some other area, that is taken into account positively. But the university wants to get a wide range of students drawn from a substantial number of schools, hopefully from all schools in Victoria. This gives the students a sense that this [going to Melbourne University] is not something they should be fearful of or beyond their reach. So the idea of the program is to have students in years 十一 and 十二, to have some association with the university, maybe through quite a bit of online linkage, access to university facilities like libraries, a limited number of visits, and country students being able to come and stay overnight at a residential college. By the time they finish year 十二, they don’t think of the University of Melbourne as a distant place that they couldn’t possibly entertain. But that they feel some familiarity, been on campus, and met some other students from similar backgrounds and circumstances. That’s really the heart of the program.
