​Seven masters' donated archives on display

Tsinghua University inaugurated an exhibition on December 28, titled "A Showcase of Eminent Masters' Donated Archives" at the Tsinghua History Museum.

This unique event marks the first joint display of the Tsinghua University Archives and the Tsinghua History Museum, and features a collection of over 50 artifacts and documents donated by the families of seven masters.

The year 2023 coincided with significant anniversaries of these masters, who were civil engineering expert Wu Liusheng, experimental psychologist Zhou Xiangeng, physical educator Xia Xiang, hydraulics expert Xia Zhenhuan, diplomat Qiao Guanhua, metal physicist Ge Tingsui, and mechanics and engineering educator Zhang Wei. These individuals, celebrated for their contributions to academia and beyond, either studied or taught at the University over the years.

The exhibition, located on the second floor of the Tsinghua History Museum, is a blend of simplicity and richness. It features nine informative panels and 23 display cases with 58 archival materials, including personal letters, manuscripts, and memorabilia, many of which are being publicly displayed for the first time.

Open for two months at the Tsinghua History Museum, this exhibition will then move to the University Library, integrating with the library's collection of works.
