Features: In 1897, Qiu Shi College, the predecessor of Zhejiang University, was founded by Lin Qi, the prefect of Hangzhou, and became one of the earliest four new-style higher schools in China. After several changes, it was officially named Zhejiang University in 1928. Over more than a century of educational history, it has forged a rich campus culture and humanistic characteristics, forming an excellent school ethos of "seeking truth and pioneering innovation." Many renowned teachers and outstanding students have left many shining anecdotes in the Qiu Shi campus, worthy of being passed down and learned by later generations. Liaohai Publishing House has edited and published this book, providing an excellent opportunity to promote the charm of Zhejiang University's renowned teachers, scholars, excellent school ethos, and campus culture. It is believed that the publication of this book will add color to the "Anecdotes of Famous Chinese Universities" series and make positive contributions to enhancing the awareness of "rejuvenating the nation through science and education." The book consists of four parts: "Renowned Teachers of Zhejiang University," "Outstanding Students of Zhejiang University," "Campus Culture," and "Glimpses of the Campus."
