The Bell Tower and the Drum Tower were part of the original design when
architect C.Y. Lee accepted the project to construct the Kuandu campus for
TNUA. The design was a reference to the Chinese proverb, “evening drum,
morning bell,” which means exhortations to virtue. At the end of December
2005, acting TNUA President Prof. Shih Hui-Min donated a bell to the Uni-
versity, which held a solemn ceremony to unveil it. The bell weighs 550 kilo-
grams, with deep and far-reaching sounds that signify long lasting fortunes
for both the University and its students.
