It originated from 190 1 Section 8 of Chapter III of the Constitution of Shandong University when it was founded: "The government establishes schools to store talents for the world, not to make progress for all students; They all came to school for the prosperity of the country, not for their own interests. A few people are ambitious, but they have achieved great things. They have been doing it for a long time, not only comparable to schools in various countries, but also comparable to old-fashioned schools. " This passage fully embodies Shandong University's "world outlook" and "view of strengthening the country", embodies the mind and boldness of Shandong people, and embodies the pursuit of world-class level and the mission of national rejuvenation of Shandong University since its establishment. 1 10 For many years, Shandong University has taken this as its school-running philosophy, closely linked its fate with that of the country and the nation, and made its own contribution to the development of higher education in China.
Designer: Liu et al. Design time: 1985 February (1) The core of the pattern takes the Chinese characters "mountain" and "big" as basic design elements, which are changed by modern deformation methods and are easy to identify. The logo is concise and easy to make and spread. The school emblem is composed of straight lines, which combines rigidity with softness, moves steadily, step by step, is full of vigor and vitality, has a sense of the times and rhythm, and has strong visual impact and rich imagination space. (2) The overall pattern is symmetrical, stable and balanced, full of everyone's demeanor and prestigious school's demeanor. The word "mountain" on the upper part of the pattern is the deformation of China's hieroglyphic "mountain", which is rich in China cultural characteristics. The deformation of the word "mountain" is on the rise, which means that Shandong University is constantly developing and striving to build a world-class university. At the bottom is the deformation of the word "big", like a vast sea, meaning endless learning. The combination of "mountain" and "sea" easily reminds people that "there is a way to learn from mountains, but there is no limit to learning from the sea", which shows the spirit of Shandong University teachers and students who are diligent in seeking knowledge and bravely climbing scientific peaks. At the same time, it emphasizes the university culture of "the soul of the mountain and the rhyme of the sea". (3) "Mountain" stands for Mount Tai, and "sea" stands for the Yellow Sea, implying the geographical location of the mountain: the Yellow Sea in the east and Mount Tai in the south. (4) The central part of the pattern is like a lighthouse in the sea, which means that in the sea of knowledge, Shandong University is like a radiant lighthouse, leading students to learn to sail in the sea and pointing out the direction for their life journey. It can also be understood as the historical mission of Shandong University to "lead civilization and progress". (5) "1901"indicates the founding time of Shandong University; The word "Shanda" is taken from a letter from Comrade Mao Zedong to Professor Gao Feng. "shandonguniversity" in the outer ring is the English translation of "Shandong University". (6) The color of the emblem of Shandong University is the main color of Shandong University-Shanda Red. Seeking truth from facts and innovating.
"Insisting on the truth" is the consistent pursuit of Shandong University, and it is also the basic feature of Shanda people. Shandong University is the earliest institution of higher learning in modern China. Since its establishment, it has paid attention to reality and practical results. 190 1 the first section of the first chapter of the charter of Shandong university clearly States: "seek truth from facts and avoid vain"; In the seventh section of the first chapter, it is clearly stated that "universities should respect truth first". "Innovation" comes from Book of Rites University: "Innovation, innovation, innovation." Innovation is to keep pace with the times, develop social civilization and lead the trend of the times, thus embodying the essential characteristics of universities.
As the school spirit, "advocating truth and pursuing innovation" embodies the simple, practical and pragmatic character of Shanda people and their constant pursuit of innovation. There is no end to learning, and there is awe-inspiring spirit.
"There is no end to learning", refer to Fang Shudong's "General Theory of Five Ancient Books of Zhao Wei and Zhan Yan": "There is no end to learning and no end to Tao." Learning here not only refers to the pursuit of knowledge and skills, but also includes the pursuit of moral sentiment and spiritual realm.
"Qi is a noble person", from Mencius' Gongsun Chou: "I know what I say, and I am good at raising my noble spirit." The so-called noble spirit is the upright spirit created by great righteousness and virtue, which embodies the noble character of "wealth can't be lewd, poverty can't be moved, and powerful people can't bend" that Mencius refers to.
The motto of the school is "endless learning, high aspirations", and with the persistent spirit of never being satisfied, it encourages teachers and students to forge ahead in the course of their studies and life, and constantly pursue the perfect realm of cultural knowledge, technical ability, humanistic accomplishment and moral sentiment.
Cheng Ci (collective revision)
East of the Yellow Sea and south of Mount Tai,
This is our paradise for pursuing truth.
Tian Xingjian, a gentleman strives for self-improvement;
Pay the fire, students should be equal to the former sages.
Reserve talents for the world and look at five continents;
For the prosperity of the country, seek ten thousand years.
Ambitious, ambitious;
There is no end to learning, and there is no fear of climbing.
Fight, fight, for the rise of the Chinese nation;
Fight, fight, for a better tomorrow for mankind.
We are young people full of vigor and vitality and sincere innovation!
The color values of "Shanda Red" are C26, M 100, Y 100, K28, and the color elements are taken from the tone of the red brick of Confucius Temple, which is steady, simple and atmospheric, reflecting the rich cultural heritage of Shandong University and the cultural characteristics of "the most representative university for the research and inheritance of traditional culture in China".
