Features: Every university has an inherent spirit within it. The four characters "Shui Qing Mu Hua" might be seen as a symbol of Tsinghua's spirit. Indeed, while Tsinghua is renowned for its strength in science and engineering, the Tsinghua people who take the world upon themselves also possess a passionate humanistic. The cultural lineage inherited from the "Old Tsinghua" is evident in the new generation of students, and these young authors are at the prime of their youth, with surging passion naturally turning into an inexhaustible flow of poetry in their writing. The combination of strengths in both the humanities and sciences, mutual complementarity, rigorous reasoning, and fresh ideas—all these are the characteristics displayed by these original works from Tsinghua University.
