Nankai University Campus Culture

The name of the school is 1904. In August, Yan Xiu and Zhang Boling visited Japan for education. After returning to China, they merged Yan Family Library and Wang Family Library for enrollment, and formally established a middle school on October 8, 2007. The school building is located in Yan Zhai Yuan, which is small in scale. At that time, the name of the school was originally called "private middle school", and it was later renamed as "dedicated middle school" and "private first middle school". After that, gentry Zheng Juru donated land 10 mu in the southwest of the city. After many twists and turns, he built a school building. This plot is located in the open depression zone in the southwest of Tianjin, referred to as "Nankai depression" for short. The name of Nankai came from this. After these twists and turns, the school built a school building here. 1907 autumn, Yan Zhai moved into a new school building. The school was renamed "Nankai Middle School Hall" and later "Private Nankai School", which was the beginning of the school name "Nankai".

The school gate of Nankai University is engraved with the four characters "Nankai University", which is glittering, magnificent and elegant. Everyone in Nankai knows that this is the name of the school inscribed by President Mao Zedong. These big characters have become an important symbol of Nankai. School Emblem To commemorate the centenary birthday of Nankai series schools, Nankai University launched a new school emblem on June 5438+10/October 65438+July 2004.

The basic elements of the logo image of Nankai University consist of graphic logo and font logo. Among them, graphic identification is its core element, which is also called "calibration" in practical application.

The core image of the emblem of Nankai University is octagon, which is both the original form and the core form of the emblem of Nankai University. The octagonal star line is formed by overlapping two square lines, and all eight angles are right angles, pointing to eight directions: east, west, south, north, southeast, northeast, southwest and northwest respectively. First, it embodies the meaning of "integrity", and second, it embodies the spirit of Nankai people "facing all directions, being broad-minded, accepting new knowledge and forging ahead".

The interaction between Octagonal Star and Fiona Fang and the blending of East and West reflect Nankai University's concept of joining the WTO, pursuing excellence and saving the world.

The word "Nankai" in the school emblem is simple and heavy, while the solitary row of "Nankai University" is simple and bright, which indicates that Nankai University is an oriental university with a long history and facing the world. The lower part of the icon indicates the founding time of Nankai University with "19 19".

origin

1965438+On September 22nd, 2007, Tianjin South Canal burst. That night, the flood flooded into Tianjin Nankai Middle School. In June+October, 5438, under the personal command of Zhang, the whole school moved to Hebei School of Political Science and Law. In order to be different from students in other schools, every student wears a paper and purple temporary school badge on his chest. Purple and white are the colors of Nankai school (purple means "purple gas comes from the east"), and it is this purple and white school emblem that makes students forget that they are Nankai people. From now on, every year on the evening of September 23rd, the school will hold a "flood memorial meeting" in the dining hall. All the students sat at the dining table and drank porridge to commemorate them. They all wore purple and white cards with the words "Nankai" printed on their chests, just like the cards of that year, except that there was a small line printed below: "Commemorating the flood in the sixth year of the Republic of China".

change

The emblem of the post-Nankai University was changed from a coat of arms to a round emblem. Different from the new emblem, the text at the bottom is the pinyin "Tianjin" in Tianjin, where Nankai University is located. The original "Tianjin" logo was changed to "19 19", marking the founding time of Nankai University, and the color of the school emblem was Nankai School Violet. The school motto allows fairness to change with each passing day.

"Allow fairness and ability to change with each passing day" is the condensation of Nankai's school-running concept and the sublimation of school-running tradition, which embodies the special value orientation and spiritual quality of Nankai people. As Mr. Yu Chuanjian said, "the word' fairness and ability' is entrusted by the spirit of the whole school, and the efforts of teachers and students are based on this word." The motto of Nankai University was founded in 1934. At the 30th anniversary meeting of Nankai University, President Zhang Boling officially declared "Gong" and "Neng" as the motto of Nankai University.

The discourse form of "allowing fairness and energy" is in the Book of Songs Truffle Pan Shui: "allowing Wu to show false ancestors." Allow, the first auxiliary word of the text. Allowing fairness and ability means having both ability and political integrity. Zhang Boling's original intention is to make Nankai students have "the public morality of loving the country and the community, and the ability to serve the society with their husbands". "With each passing day", the textbook of Lille University: "That dish of soup says:' New is new, and new is new.' "It means keeping pace with the times, with new changes every day and every month, which describes rapid progress.

Mr. Zhang Boling pointed out: "Yun Gong is a grand duke, not a small one. The small one is just selfish, which is nothing. Only by letting the public be far-sighted, correctly teaching others, carrying forward the spirit of collective patriotism and eliminating selfish departmentalism. " "Those who can make the best of their talents and build a modern country must have modern scientific talents, and the educational purpose of Nankai School is to train students with modern talents, which requires not only modern theoretical talents but also practical work ability." "The so-called changing with each passing day means that not only everyone should be able to accept new things, but also become the creator of new things; We must not only be able to catch up with the new era, but also be able to walk in the forefront of the times. "

The standard Chinese character font of the school motto originated from the rubbings of inscriptions written by Wu Yuru in April 1962 for the tombstones buried by President Zhang Boling and his wife, and was later standardized. The origin of school songs

In order to consolidate the team spirit, Nankai wrote the school song before the May 4th Movement. On May 6, at the tea party of Tokyo Nankai Alumni Association welcoming the old headmaster and Nankai athletes to Japan to participate in the Far East Games, Zhang Boling proposed a motion to write the school song.

19 18 At the end of the year, after returning from studying at Columbia University in the United States, the old president of Zhang Boling asked Sun Runsheng, a music teacher, to examine and approve a song called "On the Christmas Tree, a Western Christmas Song", which was sung by thousands of people at a party, hoping that God would cast the true spirit of Nankai.

lyrics

On the shore of Bohai Sea, the Tianjin of Baihe River stands tall, and I am the spirit of Nankai.

I have a bright future.

Beautiful, kind, intelligent and brave, pure and elegant pottery.

Rong Zhi's school motto, also known as forty-character mirror proverbs, is the school motto of large and medium-sized schools in Nankai system, which is second only to "fairness, decency and rapid development".

origin

Zhang Boling believes in the idea that how can we save the world if we don't dress properly? Therefore, in order to cultivate students' proper dress habits and civilized behavior, Zhang Boling specially erected a large mirror with one person's height on the left side of the aisle of the east building of Tianjin Nankai Middle School (the entrance side of the school gate). Zhang Boling asked Yen Hsiu to write 40 words on it: "The face must be clean, the hair must be cut short, the clothes must be straightened and the knot must be tied." Head straight, shoulders flat, chest wide, back straight. Weather: Don't be arrogant, violent and lazy. Color: yi river, Yijing, Yizhuang. "("Nankai 40th Anniversary Special Issue ") made students take a warning when entering and leaving the school gate, and was later named as" Mirror Proverbs ",which has been handed down all the time. In the square behind the main building of Nankai, the school clock, the symbol of Nankai spirit, is hung. The cast copper brackets on both sides are also bell-shaped, and there is a cross beam on the bracket, on which the calibration clock is hung. This clock is very big and weighs more than 3000 kilograms. It is antique and gives people a sense of vicissitudes. Every year, freshmen must come to this clock to hold a ceremony. The bell of Nankai school hangs quietly in the back square of the main building. Whenever new students enter school and graduates leave school, the school will ring the bell.

At that time, the school clock was made in Krupp factory in Germany. It was originally a commemorative clock made to celebrate Li Hongzhang's birthday. The bronze clock face is made of the whole diamond sutra, weighing 1.3 thousand Jin. 1904, Eight-Nation Alliance invaded Tianjin, and the British army took the clock away for daily use. After Eight-Nation Alliance returned to Tianjin, the clock was transferred to Guang Hai Temple and later sent to Nankai University as the school clock. The bronze bell is placed on the west side of Siyuan Hall, supported by four arched beams and columns, and hung on a pedestal about 2 meters high. Looking at the photos of Nankai in the past, the bronze bell was quite spectacular at that time, which was a scene of Nankai at that time. On the anniversary of the September 18th Incident 1, Nankai teachers and students rang the school bell nine times a day, 1 times a day, and then eight times a day to symbolize that the people of Nankai will remember the national humiliation of September 18th. The bells whizzed by and shook Fiona Fang for miles.

On July 28th, 1937, Japanese troops attacked Tianjin, and the Japanese troops stationed in Guang Hai Temple aimed their guns directly at Nankai University in Balitai. Nankai was killed, buildings were destroyed, books and equipment were savagely looted, and clocks weighing10,000 kg were nowhere to be found. After the war, the school looked for the school clock in many ways. President Zhang Boling wrote to General Tang Zhen, head of the Japanese delegation, asking for some looted items in Japan, but there was no sound, and the school clock was doomed to be destroyed. 1July, 997, in order to remember the painful history of the 60th anniversary of Japanese bombing of Nankai Garden, the school decided to recast the school clock. The newly cast school clock was designed by Wang Zhongquan, director of Nanjing Jinling Ancient Art Bronze Research Institute and designer of Nanjing Jinghai Temple Shi Jing Clock, and was cast by Jiangsu Metallurgical Machinery Factory. The mallet of the big clock and the mallet of Nanjing Jingshizhong come from an 80-year-old ebony, and the south and north mallets can be called twin sisters.

The new Nankai school clock weighs 3000 kilograms and its height is 1.937 meters, which means that teachers and students should remember that the Japanese bombed Nankai in 1937. 60 school emblems are carved around the clock, which means the 60th anniversary. The front of the clock is "Nankai". The big characters on the clock were written by the famous calligrapher Mr. Kang Yin, with the school song on the left and the school motto in the middle.

Nankai University Clock:

Vast rivers and seas, learning success;

The rise of Wei Yingyan, the mountains are high and the water is long;

Yu Xiang is negative, the light of the country;

July 7th Incident, the enemy went crazy;

Destroy my campus, the clouds in the scene die;

Today, it is recast, and Gong Shengru;

Students, gather together;

Allow fairness, encourage and carry forward;

With each passing day, science and education are thriving;

If you go to the south, you will have no boundaries.
