麻省理工校長 L. Rafael Reif 在 6月25日致信全校全體成員:由于美中兩國之間的關(guān)系愈發(fā)緊張,美國政府對個(gè)人學(xué)術(shù)間諜,進(jìn)而普遍認(rèn)為中國通過收購高科技知識(shí)產(chǎn)權(quán)進(jìn)行系統(tǒng)性的學(xué)術(shù)間諜事件,而表示嚴(yán)重關(guān)切。

 

我相信,因?yàn)槲覀儗⑺麄円暈榕笥押屯,所以他們的處境以及更大的國家背景,也?yīng)該關(guān)系到我們所有人。我不得不為關(guān)于麻省理工學(xué)院的華裔社區(qū)成員所遭受的痛苦境況而感到沮喪。

L. Rafael Reif 英文原稿

 

To the members of the MIT community,

MIT has flourished, like the United States itself, because it has been a magnet for the world’s finest talent, a global laboratory where people from every culture and background inspire each other and invent the future, together.

Today, I feel compelled to share my dismay about some circumstances painfully relevant to our fellow MIT community members of Chinese descent. And I believe that because we treasure them as friends and colleagues, their situation and its larger national context should concern us all.

The situation

As the US and China have struggled with rising tensions, the US government has raised serious concerns about incidents of alleged academic espionage conducted by individuals through what is widely understood as a systematic effort of the Chinese government to acquire high-tech IP.

As head of an institute that includes MIT Lincoln Laboratory, I could not take national security more seriously. I am well aware of the risks of academic espionage, and MIT has established prudent policies to protect against such breaches.

But in managing these risks, we must take great care not to create a toxic atmosphere of unfounded suspicion and fear. Looking at cases across the nation, small numbers of researchers of Chinese background may indeed have acted in bad faith, but they are the exception and very far from the rule. Yet faculty members, post-docs, research staff and students tell me that, in their dealings with government agencies, they now feel unfairly scrutinized, stigmatized and on edge – because of their Chinese ethnicity alone.

Nothing could be further from – or more corrosive to ­– our community’s collaborative strength and open-hearted ideals. To hear such reports from Chinese and Chinese-American colleagues is heartbreaking. As scholars, teachers, mentors, inventors and entrepreneurs, they have been not only exemplary members of our community but exceptional contributors to American society. I am deeply troubled that they feel themselves repaid with generalized mistrust and disrespect.

The signal to the world

For those of us who know firsthand the immense value of MIT’s global community and of the free flow of scientific ideas, it is important to understand the distress of these colleagues as part of an increasingly loud signal the US is sending to the world.

Protracted visa delays. Harsh rhetoric against most immigrants and a range of other groups, because of religion, race, ethnicity or national origin. Together, such actions and policies have turned the volume all the way up on the message that the US is closing the door – that we no longer seek to be a magnet for the world’s most driven and creative individuals. I believe this message is not consistent with how America has succeeded. I am certain it is not how the Institute has succeeded. And we should expect it to have serious long-term costs for the nation and for MIT.

For the record, let me say with warmth and enthusiasm to every member of MIT’s intensely global community: We are glad, proud and fortunate to have you with us! To our alumni around the world: We remain one community, united by our shared values and ideals! And to all the rising talent out there: If you are passionate about making a better world, and if you dream of joining our community, we welcome your creativity, we welcome your unstoppable energy and aspiration – and we hope you can find a way to join us.

* * *

In May, the world lost a brilliant creative force: architect I.M. Pei, MIT Class of 1940. Raised in Shanghai and Hong Kong, he came to the United States at 17 to seek an education. He left a legacy of iconic buildings from Boston to Paris and China to Washington, DC, as well on our own campus. By his own account, he consciously stayed alive to his Chinese roots all his life. Yet, when he died at the age of 102, the Boston Globe described him as “the most prominent American architect of his generation.”

Thanks to the inspired American system that also made room for me as an immigrant, all of those facts can be true at the same time.

As I have discovered through 40 years in academia, the hidden strength of a university is that every fall, it is refreshed by a new tide of students. I am equally convinced that part of the genius of America is that it is continually refreshed by immigration – by the passionate energy, audacity, ingenuity and drive of people hungry for a better life.

There is certainly room for a wide range of serious positions on the actions necessary to ensure our national security and to manage and improve our nation’s immigration system. But above the noise of the current moment, the signal I believe we should be sending, loud and clear, is that the story of American immigration is essential to understanding how the US became, and remains, optimistic, open-minded, innovative and prosperous – a story of never-ending renewal.

In a nation like ours, immigration is a kind of oxygen, each fresh wave reenergizing the body as a whole. As a society, when we offer immigrants the gift of opportunity, we receive in return vital fuel for our shared future. I trust that this wisdom will always guide us in the life and work of MIT. And I hope it can continue to guide our nation.

Sincerely,

L. Rafael Reif

 

 

翻譯如下:

 

麻省理工學(xué)院像美國一樣蓬勃發(fā)展,因?yàn)樗翊盆F一樣吸引了世界上最優(yōu)秀的人才,同時(shí)作為一個(gè)全球化的實(shí)驗(yàn)室,來自不同文化和背景的人們互相激勵(lì),共同創(chuàng)造未來。

 

今天,我不得不為關(guān)于麻省理工學(xué)院的華裔社區(qū)成員所遭受的痛苦境況而感到沮喪。我相信,因?yàn)槲覀儗⑺麄円暈榕笥押屯,所以他們的處境以及更大的國家背景,也?yīng)該關(guān)系到我們所有人。

 

情況

 

由于美中兩國之間的關(guān)系愈發(fā)緊張,美國政府對個(gè)人學(xué)術(shù)間諜,進(jìn)而普遍認(rèn)為中國通過收購高科技知識(shí)產(chǎn)權(quán)進(jìn)行系統(tǒng)性的學(xué)術(shù)間諜事件,而表示嚴(yán)重關(guān)切。

 

作為包括麻省理工學(xué)院林肯實(shí)驗(yàn)室在內(nèi)的研究所的所長,我已經(jīng)不能更認(rèn)真地對待國家安全了。我很清楚學(xué)術(shù)間諜活動(dòng)的風(fēng)險(xiǎn),而麻省理工學(xué)院也已經(jīng)制定了謹(jǐn)慎的政策來防范此類違規(guī)行為。

 

但在管理這些風(fēng)險(xiǎn)時(shí),我們必須非常小心,不要制造一種毫無根據(jù)的懷疑和恐懼的有毒氣氛。從全國各地的案例來看,盡管少數(shù)具有中國背景的研究人員可能確實(shí)是出于惡意行事,但他們是例外,而且遠(yuǎn)遠(yuǎn)偏離了規(guī)則。然而,教師,博士后,研究人員和學(xué)生卻告訴我,在他們與政府機(jī)構(gòu)打交道時(shí),他們現(xiàn)在感覺到他們受到不公正的審查,同時(shí)感到恥辱和緊張- 僅僅只是因?yàn)樗麄兊闹袊尘啊?/p>

 

沒有比這個(gè)更加偏離、甚至是在腐蝕我們社區(qū)的協(xié)作力量和開放的理想的了,華人和華裔同事的這些報(bào)道令人心碎。作為學(xué)者,教師,導(dǎo)師,發(fā)明家和企業(yè)家,他們不僅是我們社區(qū)的典范成員,也是美國社會(huì)的杰出貢獻(xiàn)者,但是令我深感困擾的是他們感到自己得到的是回報(bào)卻是普遍的不信任和不尊重。

 

對于我們這些直接了解麻省理工學(xué)院作為全球社區(qū)以及科學(xué)思想自由流動(dòng)的巨大價(jià)值的人來說,了解這些同事的痛苦是美國向世界傳達(dá)的越來越響亮的口號的一部分是非常重要的。

 

這些行為包括長期簽證延誤、由于宗教,種族,民族或血統(tǒng)而對大多數(shù)移民和其他一系列群體的嚴(yán)厲言論?偠灾,這些行動(dòng)和政策已經(jīng)把美國要關(guān)閉大門的聲音調(diào)到了最高。我們不再尋求吸引世界上最具驅(qū)動(dòng)力和創(chuàng)造力的個(gè)人。我相信這個(gè)信息與美國的成功方式并不一致。我也確信研究院所的成功并非源于此。我們同時(shí)還應(yīng)該考慮它為國家和麻省理工學(xué)院帶來的嚴(yán)重的長期成本。

 

在此我要鄭重聲明,

 

對于麻省理工學(xué)院全球社區(qū)的每一位成員,我想充滿善意與熱情的對你們說:我們很高興,自豪和幸運(yùn)地?fù)碛心銈儯?/p>

 

對于我們?nèi)澜绲男S眩何覀內(nèi)匀皇菆F(tuán)結(jié)在共同的價(jià)值觀和理想之下的社區(qū)!

 

對于所有嶄露頭角的人才:如果你熱衷于創(chuàng)造一個(gè)更美好的世界,如果你夢想加入我們的社區(qū),我們歡迎你的創(chuàng)造力,我們歡迎你不可阻擋的能量和愿望。我們也希望你能找到一條加入我們的路!

5月,世界失去了一位杰出的創(chuàng)作巨匠:麻省理工學(xué)院1940級畢業(yè)生建筑師貝聿銘。他在上海和香港長大,17歲時(shí)來到美國尋求教育。他留下的標(biāo)志性的建筑遺產(chǎn)分布在從波士頓到巴黎、從中國的到華盛頓特區(qū)的各個(gè)地方,以及我們自己的校園。按照他自己的說法,他一生都和自己的中國根基保持著密不可分的聯(lián)系。然而,當(dāng)他在102歲時(shí)去世時(shí),波士頓環(huán)球報(bào)將他形容為“他那一代最杰出的美國建筑師。”

 

幸虧美國鼓舞人心的制度也為作為移民的我創(chuàng)造了空間,所以所有這些事實(shí)可以同時(shí)都是真實(shí)的。

 

正如我在我四十年的學(xué)術(shù)生涯中發(fā)現(xiàn)的那樣,大學(xué)隱藏的力量是每一個(gè)秋天它都會(huì)被新的一批的學(xué)生所更新。我同樣相信,美國精神的一部分也在被移民通過他們充滿激情的能量、大膽、聰明才智和渴望更美好生活的動(dòng)力而不斷更新。

 

在確保我們的國家安全以及管理和改善我們國家的移民系統(tǒng)所必需的行動(dòng)方面,肯定有很多重要方面需要考慮。但在當(dāng)前時(shí)刻的噪音之中,我相信我們應(yīng)該發(fā)出響亮而清晰的信號,美國移民的故事對于理解美國如何成為并保持樂觀、開放、創(chuàng)新和繁榮至關(guān)重要,而這個(gè)故事也是永無止境不斷更新的。

 

在像我們這樣的國家,移民如同氧氣,而每次吸入新鮮氧氣都會(huì)使整個(gè)身體重新獲得能量。作為一個(gè)社會(huì),當(dāng)我們贈(zèng)予移民以機(jī)會(huì),我們都會(huì)得到對于我們共有的未來至關(guān)重要的燃料。我相信這種智慧將永遠(yuǎn)在麻省理工學(xué)院的生活和工作中引導(dǎo)我們。我也希望它能夠繼續(xù)指導(dǎo)我們的國家。
