And why? The reason is simple. Why should for
example studying of economics have higher position than studying something
where you need sports facilities.
I know when you study something connected with
sport you also need books and material that can be found in libraries as well
as students who study for example medicine. On the other hand also students
studying medicine need to relax and why not on the playground? Not only
sportsmen need gyms and sports stuff as well as not only swots need a library.
So why should be sport discriminated only because someone thinks not so many
students are interested in it.
Other reason why we should support sport is,
that probably more people would do some sport if they had more opportunities
and better facilities. I supposed I don’t have to explain anybody how is sport
and exercises important. The majority of people sit much more hours per day
than they move. It is necessary to support doing sport and motivate people to
do that.
What’s more, nowadays it is such a trend that
the better sports facilities the better school it is. However, sometimes less
is more. Because when you have some complicated fitness machines and don’t know
what to do with them, it’s a waste of money to buy them. Simple playground for
football, ice-hockey or ice-skating would be better, cheaper and probably
students would have there much more fun.
To sum up, both libraries and sports activities
are important and we should take ancients Greeks as example as they believed in
kalokagathia – the harmony between wisdom and body.
