měi guó美国qī七suǒ所dà xué大学tíng zhǐ停止yǔ与zhōng guó中国jiǎng xué jīn奖学金xiàng mù项目hé zuò合作
Recently, seven universities in the United States decided to stop cooperating with scholarship programs related to the Chinese government.
These universities include Dartmouth College, Temple University, University of California Davis, University of California Irvine, University of California Riverside, University of Notre Dame, and University of Tennessee.
Some U.S. lawmakers believe that this action can better protect American schools and research from foreign influence.
The China Scholarship Council provides scholarships to students to help them study abroad.
U.S. lawmakers are concerned that these programs might allow China to gain access to American technology and research results.
The lawmakers hope that more schools will follow the example of these seven universities to protect American science and security.
