Vice chancellor's speech

There was vice chancellor's speech this morning that all the staff were supposed to go.
I am not a staff member, but went there just out of curiosity. He was talking about finding research fundings a lot. I couldn't catch all of it, but was surprised he said that the university sold one piece of the land to have more income. That's just one-time trade, and it will not help the university to survive the next 10 years! The financial circumstances seem quite pressing... And that's why they are welcoming international students, as they will pay very high tuition fees. It is understandable they are charged more because they do not pay taxes as locals do, but the cost is huge.
Hmm... Making money is not easy.
