The new school, named after the college name "Antai," is to prepare middle school graduates for management jobs.

The college will provide a first batch of aid worth 500,000 yuan (US$71,429), to fund the school's infrastructure construction.

Meanwhile, Fudan University announced it has set up a service community made of students from Sichuan Province. Community members will work in earthquake-hit areas.
