Even during summer break, changes to the admissions policy at the Communication University of China (CUC) have sparked heated discussions among students, with the reform becoming a hot topic on campus and on social media.
Amid heated debate over China's top media and arts school's admission reform, eight majors, including radio and television directing and theater directing, will no longer require separate arts exams and will instead admit students based solely on gaokao (the national college entrance exam) scores starting next year.
China's art college entrance examination, known as yikao, is a special admission pathway for students applying to arts-related majors. Applicants take both the gaokao and professional tests in areas such as fine arts, music, dance, acting, broadcasting and directing. Compared with many other university programs, art majors have traditionally placed less emphasis on gaokao scores and more on candidates' professional abilities and artistic potential.
"As one of China's most influential universities for media education, CUC's reform is seen as having broader implications," Xiong Bingqi, president of the 21st Century Education Research Institute and vice president of the China Association of College Newspapers, told the Global Times.
In his view, future arts admissions are likely to place greater emphasis on students' cultural literacy, professional interests and long-term potential.

Beyond the 'shortcut'
CUC's move reflects a broader trend among Chinese arts universities. In recent years, institutions such as Nanjing University of the Arts and Henan Academy of Fine Arts have reduced the number of majors requiring school-based exams on their specific art subjects, placing greater emphasis on academic performance and provincial-level arts examinations.
The changes reflect a broader trend in China's arts education admissions system, where universities have increasingly emphasized students' cultural foundation alongside their artistic abilities.
"CUC's latest adjustment reflects a broader trend in arts education reform, with some arts-related majors beginning to admit students based on their gaokao scores rather than separate professional examinations," Xiong told the Global Times.
According to Xiong, one of the key goals of the reform is to address the utilitarian mindset among some students and parents who view arts admissions as a "shortcut to college."
In the past, some arts programs had relatively lower requirements for cultural scores, prompting some students with weaker academic performance to turn to arts exams and enroll in professional training programs during high school. As a result, arts admissions were sometimes seen not as a choice driven by genuine artistic interest or career aspirations, but as an alternative pathway to enter universities.
"The cooling of arts exam fever, to me, is a good thing for arts education and talent cultivation," Xiong said. "By admitting eight majors directly based on cultural scores, CUC is effectively removing the stepping stone of the 'shortcut to college,' allowing more students with genuine artistic interests and professional ambitions to enter these fields."
For students, the reform has directly changed how they prepare for university and make academic choices.
"The changes have created more pathways for students interested in media-related fields," a junior arts management student surnamed Wang at CUC, told the Global Times.
Wang recalled that many students around her began preparing for arts exams as early as their sophomore year of high school and later traveled to cities where their target universities were located for intensive training.
As some media-related majors shift to cultural-score-based admissions, more students who did not take the arts exam but have a genuine interest in the media field may gain opportunities to enter these programs, she said.
Rethinking media talentBeyond changing how students enter arts majors, the reform has also sparked discussion over how universities should train future media professionals.
A CUC sophomore student surnamed Wei from the School of Theater, Film and Television told the Global Times that one challenge after scrapping arts exams for some majors is how to support students who enter without systematic professional training.
"Students who previously prepared for arts exams often developed basic skills in audiovisual language and practical experience before entering university. Those admitted based on gaokao scores may need stronger professional guidance and more opportunities for practice," Wei said.
In addition to individual student development, the reform has also prompted discussions over what qualities future media professionals should possess. Kai Zhu, a drama education instructor at a leading high school in Beijing, told the Global Times that an overemphasis on exam-oriented training in media arts education had previously led some programs to focus on templates and techniques while neglecting core competencies.
"If media arts become a low-score pathway to university, the professional nature of the field will become blurred, and the industry may face a shortage of well-rounded talent," Kai said. CUC's reform signals a shift toward selecting media talent with both cultural depth and professional skills.
"Creative fields such as screenwriting and filmmaking are not built on technical skills alone; they require an understanding of society, humanity and history," he said.
"Cultural accumulation determines the depth and vision of creative works."
The reform is therefore not merely about changing the way students enter arts programs. Ultimately, it is about what kind of creators media and arts programs hope to nurture: not only those equipped with professional skills, but those who can think deeply, understand society and transform their cultural knowledge into meaningful works, he noted.

B | AI摘要
福安获准率先推进葡萄优质化发展,通过产学研共育良种、推广智慧大棚、构建全链条数字溯源体系,实现产业提质增效与品牌保护,带动农户增收。
吴锦清在用手机进行田间管理。 日前,农业农村部农产品质量安全监督司、农业农村部种植业管理司联合发函同意我省围绕葡萄相关品种,以福安市为代表性地区率先推进水果优质化发展。

C | 作为“南国葡萄之乡”,福安葡萄种植面积8万余亩,全产业链产值突破42亿元。

D | 近年来,福安强化数智赋能,依托产学研攻关和全域数字监管平台,持续推动葡萄种植从“经验驱动”向“数据驱动”转变,带动产业提质增效。 携高校共育“良种芯”
这段时间,来自南京农业大学园艺专业的研一学生刘晓琳,每天扎根在溪柄镇的福安葡萄科技小院试验田进行葡萄栽培科研试验。

E | “在福安的这些日子,我重点开展巨峰葡萄专项栽培试验,反复测试不同浓度赤霉素对葡萄转色的调控效果,定期采集果穗样本寄回学校实验室,开展生理指标与生长机理深度分析。”刘晓琳说。

F | 田间试验紧锣密鼓,实验室内的品质检测也在同步推进。在科技小院的检测室,科研人员在对去年新引进的葡萄品种“无核翠宝”开展系统性的品质检测。他们从试验植株的上、中、下不同方位分层采样,逐一测定单穗粒数、粒重、果粒横纵径、可溶性固形物含量等核心指标,通过多维度数据核验该试验品种是否达到引种预期标准。 “今年是‘无核翠宝’在本地挂果的第一年,目前果粒偏小,外观卖相还不够理想。但品种适生性不能仅凭一年表现就下结论,我们会持续种植观测几年,综合抗病性、甜度、产量、转色表现等作最终判断。”福安市葡萄协会会长陈荣华说。 2024年3月,位于溪柄镇的宁德市农业科学研究所正式成立福安葡萄科技小院,依托福安市葡萄协会,与南京农业大学教授团队建立长效合作机制。2025年7月,南京农业大学福安葡萄产业科技研究院在溪柄镇揭牌成立,产业科研平台的能级进一步跃升。目前研究院已引入高校责任专家3名、常驻研究生6名,配套10余亩试验示范基地,构建起“专家团队驻点指导+研究生长期驻扎+农户全程参与+科技项目融合”的协同服务模式。 这套模式在破解品种培育难题方面成效显著。截至目前,科技小院已引进“黄金蜜”“金陵指”“园红玫”等23个葡萄新优品种,多个品种已成功挂果。 为大棚装上“智慧脑”
“以往50亩果园开展喷药作业,2名工人需耗时3天才能完成,如今依托自动化迷雾系统,一人半天即可完工;高温天气大棚自动开窗可降温5℃,冬季闭合棚体起到保温作用;搭配专用套袋还能精准调控果期……”谈及智能化种植带来的改变,溪柄镇上佳好种植专业合作社智慧葡萄园负责人吴锦清赞不绝口。 传统葡萄种植受天气条件影响较大,为改变“靠天吃饭”的局面,近年来,福安在赛岐镇、溪柄镇、松罗乡等地的标准化葡萄种植示范基地推广高标准智慧大棚。这些大棚可抵御8级大风冲击,配套的自动天窗、迷雾喷淋、智能水肥一体化设备全部接入数字平台物联网终端,既能在极端天气下牢牢护住棚内作物,也能在日常生产中实现精细化管控。 “如今只需通过手机即可远程一键管控通风、灌溉、喷雾设备,AI大模型依托土壤、气象、虫情监测数据,自动推送施肥方案与病虫害绿色防治建议,带动果园农药使用量下降15%、节水30%、节肥20%、产量提升10%,预计今年收入可达230万元。”吴锦清说。 “为打消农户升级改造的顾虑,我们给升级智慧大棚的种植大户每亩4万元补助,2025年设施农业温室大棚补助资金已拨付357.08万元;同步指导农户购买特色农业(设施葡萄)保险,最高保额1.75万元/亩,财政补贴60%保费,农户仅需自缴40%。得益于设施升级,葡萄种植亩均收益已从8000元提升至1.5万至2万元。”福安市农业农村局局长倪惠萍说,真金白银的政策支持,就是要给果农吃下“定心丸”,进一步撬动产业设施升级,以稳产提质带动农户持续稳定增收。 给葡萄佩戴“身份证”
生产端的智能化升级为产业提质筑牢了硬件基础,而全链条数字化监管体系的搭建,则为福安葡萄的品质管控与品牌保护装上了“数字引擎”。

G | 2025年,福安市建成县域数字农业一体化平台,依托“有福农云”移动端小程序,串联种植监管、质量溯源、品牌维权、产销对接等环节,实现从田间到舌尖的全流程数字化管控。 今年2月《农产品质量安全承诺达标合格证管理办法》正式实施,福安推出多码合一的电子承诺达标合格证。该合格证整合了经营主体信息、企业商标、农残检测报告、全周期种植记录等内容,一改过去包装多重贴码的烦琐,有效减轻企业包装成本。

H | 同时,合格证数据同步接入省农业农村厅“一品一码”系统,并与市场监管部门数据互通共享,一旦出现消费投诉,农业农村、市场监管部门可联合开展追溯核查,精准区分产地种植与流通环节责任,形成“来源可查、去向可追、责任可究”的全链条闭环。 为推动溯源体系全域覆盖,福安市农业农村局组织农技人员、网格员下沉田间地头,手把手指导农户完成生产信息录入,目前平台已归集全市3200余条种植主体档案信息。 数字化溯源体系的建立,成为保护区域公用品牌的利器。

I | “7月份葡萄刚上市时,我们就发现广州市场出现假冒‘福安葡萄’的侵权行为,其无法出具合规的电子合格证与溯源数据,我们迅速联动市场监管部门开展维权行动。”倪惠萍说,溯源码的唯一性从源头阻断了仿冒产品冒用品牌的空间,有力维护了“福安葡萄”的品牌口碑。(本报记者 庄严 通讯员 雷津慧 李广 文/图)。
