Features: Southwest Associated University, full name "National Southwest Associated University," was established during the Chinese War of Resistance against Japan. In the autumn of 1937, the three major prestigious universities—Peking University, Tsinghua University, and Nankai University—united to form the "National University of Changsha." In 1938, it moved westward to Kunming and was renamed "National Southwest Associated University." It was officially disbanded in the summer of 1946, lasting nine years in total. The university was renowned for gathering great masters and nurturing generations of talent.
