Moreover, she contends that if an event is canceled unexpectedly, students will be promptly notified via email, preventing them from wasting time attending a non-existent event. Lastly, she is confident that students will check their emails daily, ensuring they stay informed about important updates and do not miss any crucial information. By implementing this daily email system, the university can provide a more efficient and reliable method of communication for its student body.

Original: The university proposes to send daily news through email to every student about the campus event and activities. The university plans to send daily emails to all students about campus events and activities.（将“proposes”改为“plans”，使句子更自然；将“news through email”改为“emails”，简化表达；将“every student”改为“all students”，使表达更准确。）

And the girl in the conversation agrees with this idea because the newspaper just fails to send the most up-to-date information to students because it's a weekly newspaper. The woman in the conversation supports this plan as the weekly newspaper cannot provide the most current information to students.（将“girl”改为“woman”，使表达更恰当；简化句子结构，避免重复使用“because”。）

However, if there's such email, then it will remind the students so that she wouldn't forget. However, with daily emails, students will be reminded of these events and won't forget them.（简化句子结构，使表达更自然。）

And even if the activities get cancelled, the students will know it immediately instead of wasting time showing up there. Moreover, if events are cancelled, students will be informed promptly, preventing them from wasting time attending.（使用“moreover”代替“and”，使表达更连贯；简化句子结构，使表达更自然。）

And the second reason is that actually students will check the newspaper every day so that if the school could include cafeteria menu in this, students will be more interested. The second reason is that students check their email daily, and if the school includes the cafeteria menu, it would increase their interest in reading these emails.（将“newspaper”改为“email”，避免混淆；简化句子结构，使表达更自然。）

And these are the two reasons why students think it's a reasonable idea. These are the two reasons why the woman believes this plan is beneficial for students.（将“students”改为“the woman”，使表达更准确；将“reasonable idea”改为“beneficial for students”，使表达更清晰。）
