The Green Garden of Beihang University

One scene that Beihang University is proud of is the garden known as the "big green garden". This park-like green space stands among the green trees, and there is even a lake and a small pavilion. The Green Garden is the largest garden in the "Eight Colleges", which nourishes students from generation to generation like a big green lung.

According to the old teacher of Beihang University, the most common images in the Green Park are students sitting by the lake reading sporadically, toddlers on the path, elderly people doing morning exercises peacefully on the grass, and passers-by who pass by don't forget to look at the beautiful scenery in the park. During the SARS period, it became a place where many people sought peace. Many students of Beihang University have written small poems to describe the beauty of green gardens.

Geo-university road

The campus of Geo University is very large, with kindergartens, primary schools, middle schools, residential buildings and various shops. Some people joke that a university is like a micro-society, which can be solved here from birth to graduation. Students from big countries are impressed by a straight road, which is one kilometer long from the east gate to the west gate without a bend. Such a long straight road is hard to see in other colleges and universities.

Ginkgo forest in iron and steel institute

Because of the picturesque scenery, especially a large golden ginkgo forest, Steel Research Institute was chosen as the shooting place for many TV dramas and MVs. "Ginkgo Avenue" is located on the south side of the library. Ginkgo trees are dotted on both sides of the road, which is a landscape all year round.

In summer, ginkgo trees are lush in Lin Yuyu, and birds are singing happily in the branches. In autumn, the trees are covered with yellow leaves, and the fallen leaves dance like Huang Die. "Just like yesterday four years ago, the yellow ginkgo leaves were still blue …" At the graduation party in 2006, students also sang their own "Ginkgo Leaves" to express their nostalgia for the campus.

Old willow tree in Hongqi amusement park

There is a famous willow tree in Hongqi playground of Petroleum University. Professor Yu Shicheng told reporters that when he went to college here in the 1950s, this leafy old willow tree was here, so strong that two people could hold it together. Later, when the playground was repaired, I was reluctant to move trees. For this tree, the playground was moved two meters during the construction.

This old willow tree has always been a symbol of petroleum university, and it was still there until it moved to the school. Now, because the original school site was occupied and expanded, this big tree has disappeared. Yu Shicheng, who is nearly 80 years old, told reporters that there are many large poplars and willows in the Youth Park of Petroleum Institute, which were planted by himself in those years and are still preserved today. Many old professors now recall their youth and always look for that tree when they are studying.

Beilin Yinxing boulevard

As soon as I entered the small south gate, I saw a golden avenue "Ginkgo Avenue". Beihang University is the most active club.

A large number of associations of Beihang University, once the largest in Beijing, were called "Hundred Regiments Wars". Although it is a science and engineering college, Beihang University currently has more than 70 clubs, such as Lingfeng Club, Tennis Association, Military Association, Big Mouth English Lovers Association, College Students' Psychological Association, Comic Club and so on. No matter what hobbies students have, similar groups can be found in clubs of Beihang University. Every time the club recruits new students or the club culture month, the members of the club will set up a stall in the school to introduce the club activities to the new students.

In addition, Beihang University also has the only art museum in domestic universities. The art museum regularly displays contemporary works of art and traditional culture at home and abroad and is open to teachers and students free of charge.

The University of Geology has the largest number of academicians.

There have been more than 30 academicians in China Geo University, and now the oldest academician is nearly 1 10 years old. Beijing Institute of Geology has the largest number of academicians among the old "Eight Institutes". From 1950s to 1970s, the Institute of Geology trained many academicians of the two academies, such as Ouyang Ziyuan, the chief scientist of China's lunar exploration project, and 1956 graduated from the Institute of Geology.

According to the ratio of previous academicians to the number of students each year, 1 academician can be selected from an average of 2000 people. Schools often use this to encourage each new student: you should produce at least two academicians this year.

The iron and steel institute has the largest number of mayors.

According to the relevant person in charge of University of Science and Technology Beijing, the Institute of Iron and Steel is known as the "cradle of mayors", and successive mayors or deputy mayors of more than 30 cities across the country have graduated from the former Institute of Iron and Steel.

It is reported that former Beijing Mayor Liu Qi and Vice Mayor Sun, Shanghai Mayor Xu He and Vice Mayor Zhu Zongbao, Chongqing Vice Mayor Zhao Gongqing, Nanjing Mayor and Vice Mayor Huang Mengfu, Guangzhou Mayor Zhang Guangning and Vice Mayor Chen Mingde ... Coincidentally, Gao Yunsheng, the first president of Beigang, was the mayor of Huangshi and Zhang Wenqi, the second president.

There are the most climbers in this land.

In the university world, there is a saying that mountaineering is to China Geo University, just as Chinese is to Peking University and science is to Tsinghua. There is no special mountaineering major in Dida, but mountaineering is a compulsory course for geological majors, and many students have become famous mountaineers.

1958, the first amateur mountaineering team in China was established by the then Institute of Geology. 1960, 1958 graduate Wang Fuzhou climbed Mount Everest. 196 1 The women's mountaineering team climbed Jiubie Peak (7595m above sea level) in Gong Geer, Xinjiang, setting a world record for women's mountaineering. According to the records of the school history, more than 5,900 teachers and students of Geo University have successively obtained the mountaineer certificates issued by the State Sports Commission, which is indeed the largest number of mountaineers trained.
