School background

In 1952, following the example of the former Soviet Union, China adjusted the colleges and departments of colleges and universities nationwide, planned to move a number of coastal and Eastern universities to the central and western regions, and planned to move Shandong University to Zhengzhou to establish a new Henan University.
