Features: Shandong University is one of the oldest higher education institutions in China's history. Its predecessor was the Imperial Shandong University College, established in 1901 at Luoyuan Academy in Jinan. Over the following two decades, it underwent several changes and mergers. In 1926, it was formed from six specialized schools and became the Provincial Shandong University. In 1928, it was renamed the National Shandong University. In 1930, it took over the assets of the former private Tsingdao University and was established as the National Tsingdao University in Tsingdao. It was later reverted to the National Shandong University in 1932. In 1951, Shandong University merged with the former East China University from the liberated areas and retained the name Shandong University. In 1958, Shandong University moved from Tsingdao to Jinan, where it remains to this day.
From this book, we can appreciate the noble sentiments of the former teachers who devoted themselves to the cause of education with their hearts and souls. Their entrepreneurship, academic pursuits, personal integrity, and dedication as teachers inspire us and provide us with valuable lessons. The book also includes short essays by former students recalling their campus life, which are vivid and touching, and will undoubtedly benefit all readers.
