A lady, in a cotton dress, and her husband, dressed in a homemade coat, stepped off a train. They walked into the office of a university without an appointment(约定).

“We want to see the president(校长),” the man said softly.

“He’ll be busy all day,” the secretary said.

“We’ll wait,” the lady replied.

For hours, the secretary didn’t pay any attention to them, hoping the couple would give up and go away. They didn’t. The secretary finally decided to tell the president about it. The president agreed to meet them. But clearly, he didn’t want to do it. When the couple went into the president’s office, the lady said: “We had a son who studied in this university for one year. He loved here very much but he died last year. We would like to give a building to the university.”

The president took a quick look at the cotton dress and homemade coat, and then said, “A building! Do you have any idea how much a building costs? We have over seven and a half million dollars worth(价值) of buildings at the university.” For a moment the lady sat in silence.

The president was pleased. He thought the couple could go away now.

The lady turned to her husband and said quietly: “Is that all it costs to start a university? Why don’t we just start our own?” Her husband agreed.
