These duties give universities a high responsibility. They are rooted in a great and fine tradition of honesty, free fearless enquiry and independence. Each university is a beacon of light in its own society and, by its association with its sisters; its knowledge and its values are spread wide.
這些職能賦予大學(xué)高度的責(zé)任。這些職責(zé)根植于誠(chéng)實(shí)、自由無畏的探究和獨(dú)立性這三者構(gòu)成的偉大的優(yōu)秀傳統(tǒng)。每一所大學(xué)都是本國(guó)社會(huì)里的一座燈塔;通過它和姐妹大學(xué)的聯(lián)系,它的知識(shí)和價(jià)值得以廣為傳播。
A tradition is not built easily or quickly. During one hundred years, Peking University has been fashioning its tradition. Present and future members of the University! We hope to see you elaborate and consolidate your tradition. We hope to see you become a keystone of the intellectual community. In your next century, we hope to see you contribute to the international academic movement as a whole, as more and more of your numbers come to participate in the activities of your sister universities.
Congratulations, Peking University on your first century of achievement!
