To solve the problem, officers of HUFS tried to gain
agreements between the faculties of both campuses.
At last, they decided to change the names of some
departments. Three departments in College of English

the two campuses. The school also intends to establish
Seoul Campus as a school specializing in linguistics
and literature and Global Campus will specialize in

However,theprocessofthemergerisnotproceeding

merger. They did not know what merits and demerits
follow that decision. Some criticized that students’
opinions were not fully reflected. The school claims
that the president of General Student Council had
also participated in a university senate. This could
not placate the students who face their academic

between the school and the students and indifferent
attitude of school has caused disappointment among
manystudents.
To give exact information on the merger, dean
of Planning and Coordination, Kim Hak-tae, sent
