Abstract：Throughout history the world-class universities have always emphasized serving the country, the society, and especially the students. The logical starting point of the development of world-class universities is “being responsible for students their whole life”, namely “universities for students”. However, the physical construction of “double first-class universities” in China is almost “first-class”, but those universities under construction are becoming ever less like a “true university”. The logical starting point of the development of world-class universities includes theoretical logic and practical logic. According to the theory of educational production function, students are the potential productivity and the core variable element of the construction of “double first-class universities”. A strict selection of faculty, cultivation of students’ independent innovation capacity, and first-class service is the premise, key, and important guarantee for the realization of the idea of “universities for students” in world-class universities. In the new era, in the construction of “double first-class universities”, we must adhere to the logical starting point of “universities for students”, probe into the essential similarities and differences between China’s construction of “double first-class universities” and the construction of world-class universities, be selective in faculty recruitment, encourage students to actively participate in the administration of the university, build a multi-dimensional evaluation system, create a good educational environment, and cultivate and develop students’ healthy personality and cultural quality, so as to help realize people’s yearning for a better life.
