We made dumplings and watched movies, and as usual, we sang songs and had plays.
it will be the most impressive party ever for us all, the last get-together during our student life, the sweetiest memory with our friends.
I had the best time ever for the months with friends. I enjoyed being crowded with so many acquainted faces, and laughing our aloud.
six years, or three years, passed so fast.. even before we stop to think about what we have exprienced, and when we are trully moved, even what is the most sorrowful moment, time has slipped away.
and this will be a good part of my 18th-birthday present.
anyway, I love you all, friends! 12月24日 看完烟火再回去终于出新专辑了， 一定要听。。

With the abolition of fraternities at Colby, it is unlikely that the Colby chapters, Alpha, Beta and Gamma, will ever be resurrected. In 1984, following an investigation of campus life commissioned by the Board of Trustees, a decision was made to withdraw recognition from Colby’s fraternities as they were seen to be "exclusionary by nature". The day that fraternity and sorority decision was announced happened to fall on a Sunday and was known as "Bloody Sunday" by many on the campus at the time. The fraternity decision opened up housing throughout the campus to all students on an equal basis, and it created opportunities for students to play a significant role in governance at Colby. The transition to having no fraternities took more than four years as many of the fraternities focused around sports continued to add new members and go "underground." The fraternities were finally dissolved when one of the them was caught hazing pledges in an off-campus house by the Maine State Police. Student-faculty collaboration has long been an important part of the culture, and programs to enhance those relationships were instituted. [edit] Student bodyToday Colby’s 1,870 students, evenly divided between men and women, come from virtually every state and about 70 foreign countries. In 2005, Colby was presented the Senator Paul Simon Award for Campus Internationalization. The College is a leader in environmental awareness and has won environmental awards for its commitment to sustainable practices on campus, including an Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Environmental Merit Award for 2003 and two Maine Governor’s Awards for Environmental Excellence, in 2002 and 2004. Students have also participated in humanitarian projects to reduce the malaria problem in the Republic of Sierra Leone. [1] However, Colby students remain primarily a homogeneous group with an 83% White, non-Hispanic student body and 49.5% of all students hailing from New England.[2] Alumni, now numbering more than 23,000, are represented in all 50 states and 75 foreign countries. Alumni remain engaged with the College through alumni programs, affinity groups, and a directory and related services online, all offered by the Office of Alumni Relations. [edit] Student life on campusWhile studies do take up a significant portion of the student's time, the college has made a great effort to encourage free events on campus, specifically through the creation in 2003 of a Student Programming Board (SPB). This student-run organization sponsors multiple programs every week ranging from dances to special lectures to bingo nights to large scale live performances. In the past, SPB has brought such acts as Jurassic 5, Citizen Cope, Blackalicious, Ben Folds, Ben Kweller, OK Go, Dane Cook, Talib Kweli, Matisyahu, State Radio and Lupe Fiasco. In addition to SPBs programming, numerous clubs on campus will often put on all-school events. Colby College has also received recent press resulting from their beer and wine offerings in the dining hall. For a relatively inexpensive cost, students may consume up to two beverages during their meal. At this time, however, this program is not active at the College. Colby's student newspaper, The Colby Echo, has been published since 1877. The paper distributes 1600 papers weekly in academic buildings, dining halls and throughout Waterville. Colby's radio station, WMHB Waterville 89.7 FM, has been on air since March 1949. WMHB broadcasts new and diverse programming to central Maine and around the world. Colby also has a large a cappella scene. There are six groups on campus: The Blue Lights (Men), The Colby Eight (Men), The Megalomaniacs (Co-ed), The Sirens (Female), The Colbyettes (Female), and EVE (Female). The Colby College Museum of Art has a number of collections covering a variety of different styles of paintings, sculpture, and folk art. The Museum is also notable for housing the largest collection of works by American painter Alex Katz in any single collection. There is no admission charge. [edit] Colby Outdoor Orientation Trips (COOT)In 1975, Colby instituted their first outdoor orientation trip. From 15 first-year students, 2 upperclassmen and a professor on the first trip, the program has grown to include approximately 98% of incoming classes participating in a COOT. The program now offers 52 trips in the fall semester and an ICED COOT program for those students who spend the first semester of their freshman year abroad. Destinations for Fall semester trips include hiking trips Acadia National Park, Mount Katahdin and other locations around Maine, canoe trips on the Kennebec and Moose Rivers, along with other trips around the state. The various trips are designed to appeal to incoming students with a variety of interests and fitness levels. The focus of COOT is not meant to be the outdoors, but the growth of a group that assists each other with the transition to campus. COOT leaders are chosen from upperclass students and are expected to help the students both during and after the trip with the adjustment to campus life. [edit] Alma MaterColby's Alma Mater is "Hail, Colby, Hail". The lyrics to the song were written by Karl R. Kennison from the class of 1906 and it is sung to the tune of "O Canada".

[edit] Colby in popular culture
Colby Part 1Colby CollegeFrom Wikipedia, the free encyclopediaJump to: navigation, search
Colby College, founded in 1813, is an American private liberal arts college located on Mayflower Hill in Waterville, Maine. Colby is the 12th oldest independent liberal arts college in the United States. Approximately 1,800 students from 66 countries are enrolled annually; the college offers 53 major fields of study and uses project-based learning. Volunteer programs and service-learning take many students into the surrounding community. More than two thirds of Colby students participate in study-abroad programs. Together with Bates College and Bowdoin College, Colby is one of three small liberal arts colleges in Maine. Colby College competes in the NESCAC league and is considered to be among what are known as the "Little Ivies." Although one of the oldest liberal arts colleges in the nation, Colby is in the midst of a major campus building program, including a new social sciences and interdisciplinary studies building. It will house academic departments and the Goldfarb Center for Public Affairs and Civic Engagement. The College has also created a new program in neuroscience.
[edit] HistoryThe original name of the college was the Maine Literary and Theological Institution. After Maine separated from Massachusetts, the new legislature conferred upon the school the right to grant degrees. Soon afterwards, in 1821, the college was renamed Waterville College. During the Civil War, the school was on the verge of closing due to many students leaving to fight the war. Gardner Colby, a Boston merchant and Maine native gave a large donation which prevented the college's closure. The college was renamed Colby College in gratitude. In 1871, Colby College was the first all-male college in New England to accept women students. One of the buildings is named after the first woman student, Mary Low, who was the valedictorian of her class. The original campus was located closer to the town but outgrew it. The city of Waterville eventually deeded some land near the outskirts of the city to the college where the current college campus stands. [edit] AcademicsColby is a highly selective, private academic institution and is consistently ranked among the top 20 liberal arts colleges in the country by U.S. News & World Report. In 2006, Colby was ranked 20th. Colby was named one of the "25 New Elite Ivies" by the Kaplan College Guide. Major options include: African-American Studies, American Studies, Anthropology, Art, Biology, Chemistry, Classics, Computer Science, East Asian Studies, Economics, English, Environmental Studies, Environmental Science, French Studies, Geology, Geoscience, German Studies, Government, History, International Studies, Latin American Studies, Mathematics, Music, Philosophy, Physics, Psychology, Religious Studies, Russian Language and Culture, Science, Technology, and Society, Sociology, Spanish, Theater and Dance, and Women's Gender and Sexuality Studies. Administrative Science and Italian Studies are offered as minors. Students choose from over 500 courses in 53 major fields and have wide flexibility in designing independent study programs, electing special majors, and participating in internships and exchange programs. Historically, Colby has valued understanding of and concern for others, diversity of thought and culture, open access to campus groups and organizations, and personal and academic honesty. [edit] LibrariesColby’s libraries—Miller Library, the Bixler (Art and Music) Library, and the Olin (Science) Library—have a collection of more than 900,000 books, journals, microfilms, music scores, sound recordings, videos/DVDs, and manuscripts. They provide access to more than 100 Internet databases and more than 6,500 electronic journals. Computer labs, wireless networks, laptops, study areas, and a listening center are available for student use. Miller Library stands at the center of campus and houses the humanities and social science collections, the College archives, and Special Collections. Miller also contains a computer cluster and study areas that are open around the clock, and is equipped with wireless Internet access. The Art and Music Library, in the Bixler Art and Music Center, maintains a collection of art and music books, journals, sound recordings, music scores, a computer lab/listening center, and study spaces. Internet ports and wireless access are provided. The Science Library, in the F.W. Olin Science Center, houses books, journals, videos, and topographic maps that support programs in the natural sciences, computer science, and mathematics. An open-stack system allows access to the collection with the online catalog and electronic indexes and Internet files are available on library workstations and computers campus-wide. The collection supports all curriculum areas and contains more than 1,300 currently print journals and another 8,500 electronic journals, and domestic and international daily newspapers. The Colby libraries are a repository for U.S. government and Maine state documents. As a member of both the Colby-Bates-Bowdoin consortium of libraries and Maine Info Net, Colby provides access to a merged catalog of more than six million items and daily courier service from libraries in Maine. A new consortium, NExpress, comprising Colby, Bates, Bowdoin, Northeastern, Wellesley, and Williams, provides additional access to research materials. Ten professional librarians provide research assistance to students, faculty, and outside researchers. Instruction in the use of the library and its research materials is offered throughout the curriculum, from an introduction in beginning English classes to in-depth subject searching using sophisticated tools in upper-level classes. Miller Library’s special collections of first editions and manuscripts have achieved international recognition. The Edwin Arlington Robinson Memorial Room, named for the Pulitzer Prize-winning Maine poet, contains his books, manuscripts, letters, and memorabilia. Colby’s Thomas Hardy Collection is one of the most extensive in the country. Other authors represented in the Robinson Room include A.E. Housman, Sarah Orne Jewett, Kenneth Roberts, Henry James, Willa Cather, John Masefield, William Dean Howells, and Thomas Mann. The John and Catherine Healy Memorial Room contains the James Augustine Healy Collection of Modern Irish Literature, with inscribed copies, manuscripts, and holograph letters of William Butler Yeats, Sean O’Casey, James Joyce, George Bernard Shaw, and others. The Healy Collection has 7,000 primary and critical sources representing the Irish Literary Renaissance, 1880-1940. The Alfred King Chapman Room houses the College archives, which hold more than 4,000 manuscript files pertaining to Colby alumni, faculty, and staff dating from 1813 to the present. The archives include an extensive collection of books by Colby graduates and faculty members. ND Part Two[edit] InstitutesMany of the faculty of the university participate in one or more of the university's 84 interdisciplinary research institutes and centers. Notable institutes are the Medieval Institute, the Kroc Institute for International Peace studies and the Center for Social Concerns[14][15]. [edit] University librariesThe library faculty of the university are divided into two groups: the University Library system and the Kresge Law Library. The University Library system is the major group of libraries on campus. Its main building is the fourteen-story Theodore M. Hesburgh Library, but it also includes branch libraries for Architecture, Chemistry & Physics, Engineering, the Life Sciences, and Mathematics as well as information centers in the Mendoza College of Business and the Kellogg/Kroc Institute for Peace Studies, and a slide library in O'Shaughnessy Hall. The library system holds 3 million volumes and 2.5 million microform units and subscribes to 22,600 serial publications. The Kresge Law Library, which is the library of the Law School, currently holds 324,000 volumes and 294,000 microform units and subscribes 6,200 serial publications. [edit] StudentsAccording to the university's academic code, students are classified as either undergraduate students, graduate students, or two kinds of professional students: law students or graduate business students. Each group has its own separate student government organization. The administration of the college or school in which a student has a primary course of study serves as his or her academic administrators. There are two exceptions to this rule: first year undergraduate students, whose administration is the First Year of Studies program, and graduate students, whose administration is the Graduate School. The First Year of Studies program was established in 1962 and is the program to which all incoming first-year students are admitted. Students do not declare a major during this time. Through the structure of the curriculum, the First Year of Studies responds to the uncertainty regarding the choice of college and major that many first-year students experience. The first-year curriculum also accommodates the academic needs of students who have already committed to a specific academic program. The program includes academic advising and a Learning Resource Center, which provides time management, collaborative learning, and learning strategy tutorials as well as subject tutoring. The middle fifty percent of admitted freshman students score between a 31 and 34 on the ACT.[16] Founded in 1918, the Graduate School is a body whose administrators coordinate master and doctoral studies in the colleges of the university and the School of Architecture. They approve the graduate programs proposed by the academic departments of the colleges and ultimately admit graduate students to studies and confer graduate degrees. The academic departments, though, provide academic and research advising for the students, do most of the admission decision making, and ultimately certify to the Graduate School the readiness of the student for the granting of graduate degrees. [edit] Religious lifeNotre Dame's Catholic character is manifested through weekly celebrations of the Holy Mass at the Basilica, in any of the campus dormitories, or at other various sites across campus. Most residence halls have either a priest, brother, or sister as its rector, who helps lead the religious life for that dorm. Students perform most of the liturgical stations, including lectoring, Eucharistic ministry, and music ministry. Further evidence of the Catholic character spans the campus, with the statue of Mary crowning the Dome, the Basilica, the Grotto, the "Word of Life" mural on the Hesburgh Library, and numerous other sacred statues and areas. In addition, most classrooms display a crucifix. Notre Dame students have the opportunity to attend any one of several retreats throughout their school career, particularly the Notre Dame Encounter. [edit] Residence hallsNotre Dame can house up to 6,200 students on campus and undergraduate students live in 27 single-sex residence halls, each with its own distinct subculture as well as its own chapel inside. Undergraduates studying to enter seminary may also live in the Old College residence. Notre Dame, like many other Catholic and Christian schools, enforces a visitation policy (known as parietals) on those students who live in dormitories, specifying times when members of the opposite sex are allowed to visit. However, every residence hall except Stanford Hall has 24-hour social space in which parietals are not enforced. These social spaces are usually located in the basement of the residence hall and include TV lounges and kitchen areas. The dorms are located on five quads: North Quad, South Quad, West Quad, Mod Quad, and God Quad. According to the Office of Residence Life and Housing (known as ResLife), 80% of undergraduates live on campus, including about half of the senior class.[17] There are no Greek sorority/fraternity societies on campus; many students continue in the same residence hall for all four years. This dorm loyalty coupled with the nature of Notre Dame students makes for some very fierce interhall rivalries. Each dorm has a signature charity fund-raiser, hosts a fall and spring dance and produces a campus wide student activity (ex. the Keenan Revue, Dillon Pep Rally, A Carroll Christmas, Fisher Regatta). Furthermore, Notre Dame is one of only two universities to offer full contact, full pads, intramural football (the other is the United States Military Academy). It also hosts the largest intramural boxing tournament for both men and women (which is used as a fundraiser for Holy Cross missions). A prevalent campuswide sports obsession, the interhall football program as a prime example, often contributes to a perception of Notre Dame students as "jocks." This sports obsession led to a Sports Illustrated ranking that named Notre Dame the #2 "Jock School" in the country in 1997.[18] In more recent years, however, the student body has grown more and more diverse and the student body continues to participate in a wide array of activities outside of athletics[19].

[edit] Athletics
Notre Dame athletic teams are known as the "Fighting Irish." The University is a member of the Big East Conference in all sports except football, which remains independent, lacrosse (Great West), and ice hockey where they belong to the CCHA. Previously, and especially during the Knute Rockne football era, Notre Dame had several unofficial nicknames—among them the "Rovers" and the "Ramblers," because of those teams' propensity to travel the nation to play its football contests, such as at the University of Southern California, long before such national travel became the collegiate norm. Later, Notre Dame was also, again unofficially, known as the "Terriers," after the Irish breed of the dog, and for some years, an Irish Terrier would be found on the ND football sidelines. The fight song for the Fighting Irish is the Notre Dame Victory March, penned by brothers Michael and John Shea in the 1900s. Notre Dame's nickname is inherited from Irish immigrant soldiers who fought in the Civil War with New York City's Irish Brigade, recollected among other places in the poetry of Joyce Kilmer who served with one of the Irish Brigade regiments during World War I. Though the Irish regiments and Kilmer were well-known, particularly in the urban ethnic community, during the era between the Civil War and World War II, Notre Dame's claim to the nickname is justified since its third president was a famous Irish Brigade chaplain whose ministrations at Gettysburg are commemorated in the "Absolution Under Fire," part of Notre Dame's permanent art collection. The most generally accepted explanation is that the press coined the nickname as a characterization of Notre Dame teams in the 1920s as a result of preexisting Irish stereotypes, the widely reported events of 1924, and the grit, determination, and tenacity of Coach Knute Rockne's football teams of the era. Although Notre Dame alumnus Francis Wallace popularized it in his New York Daily News columns in the 1920s with respect to the university, as early as the Civil War, Father Corby and the Irish Brigade of the Union Army had been dubbed "The Fighting Irish."[38] The Fighting Irish have won 11 consensus national championships and produced seven Heisman Trophy winners. Some notable football greats are Hall of Fame quarterback Joe Montana, Hall of Fame and Heisman Trophy winning running back Paul Hornung, as well as future Hall of Famers such as wide receiver Tim Brown (the last member of the Fighting Irish to win the Heisman Trophy) and running back Jerome Bettis. The Fighting Irish have been coached by notable figures, such as Knute Rockne, Frank Leahy, Ara Parseghian, and Lou Holtz. Notre Dame is tied with USC and Ohio State for the most number of Heisman Trophy Winners, each school with seven. [39] The Irish Women's Soccer program as also won two national championships in 1995 and 2004. Also the fencing program won national championships in 2003 and 2005. [edit] SeminariesThere are two seminaries located on the campus of Notre Dame, both run by the Congregation of Holy Cross. Old College is the undergraduate Holy Cross seminary program located in the original university building constructed by Fr. Sorin, CSC in 1843. Moreau Seminary is the graduate theological seminary of the Congregation of Holy Cross located just across St. Joseph Lake on Notre Dame's Campus.

The University of Notre Dame IPA: /ˌnoʊtɚˈdeɪm/ is a Catholic[4] institution located in Notre Dame, an unincorporated section of St. Joseph County, Indiana, United States, immediately northeast of the city of South Bend. Notre Dame, meaning "Our Lady" in French,[5] refers to the Virgin Mary. The original and official name of the school is the University of Notre Dame du Lac (Our Lady of the Lake). Notre Dame's campus sits on 1,250 acres (5 km²) containing two lakes and 136 buildings. The school was founded on November 26, 1842, by a 28-year-old priest, the Reverend Edward Sorin, CSC, and six Holy Cross Brothers who were members of the Congregation of Holy Cross, founded in Le Mans, France, in 1837. Recent historical study has shown that the Potawatomi Indians, partly because of the strong faith of Leopold Pokagon, also played an integral role in the founding of Notre Dame, both before and during Sorin's presence in Northern Indiana. Originally Sorin planned to wait out the winter at the South Bend site, notorious for its fierce winter months, and the standing joke is that the Congregation is still waiting for winter to pass.[6] The University's Catholic character is physically manifest throughout the Notre Dame campus. The Basilica of the Sacred Heart is centrally located on campus. A statue of the Blessed Virgin Mary stands atop the Main Building's dome, there are chapels in every residence hall, and crucifixes in most classrooms on campus. 82% of the student body self-identifies as Catholic. The Indiana General Assembly granted the school its charter on January 15, 1844, under the name University of Notre Dame du Lac. Though the word Lac is singular, the university's campus actually contains two lakes. According to legend, when Father Sorin arrived to found the school, it was November and everything was frozen. He thought there was only one lake and named the university accordingly.[7]
[edit] LocationThe university is located in Notre Dame, Indiana, an unincorporated community in north central Indiana just north of South Bend and about four miles (6 km) from the Michigan state line. [edit] Campus
Notre Dame's administration building, featuring the famous golden dome topped by a statue of the Blessed Virgin Mary Notre Dame's campus consists of 1,250 acres just south of the Indiana Toll Road in the northern neighborhood of South Bend. Across State Route 31 to the west is Saint Mary's College, an all-women's college founded by the Sisters of the Holy Cross. 137 buildings insured at a value of 2.2 billion dollars are featured on Notre Dame's campus.[8] Notable structures include the Golden Dome, the Basilica of the Sacred Heart, the Grotto of Our Lady of Lourdes, 80,000 seat Notre Dame Stadium, 14-story Hesburgh Library with a 132-foot mural of Jesus, which is referred to as "Touchdown Jesus," the DeBartolo Performing Arts Center, the Jordan Hall of Science and the geodesic domed Stepan Center. Notre Dame also has two lakes; a nine-hole student golf course; indoor football, swimming, rock climbing and tennis facilities, and numerous basketball courts and sand volleyball courts adjacent to dorms. The University is currently embarking on a massive campaign to upgrade its facilities and improve the northern neighborhoods of South Bend.[9] [edit] Government
A statue of the Blessed Virgin Mary at the Grotto of Our Lady of Lourdes University government is headed by a body of twelve self-perpetuating members called "fellows." Six of the fellows must be priests of the Congregation of Holy Cross (CSC), and the remaining six fellows are laypeople. Three of the priest fellows are always the current university president, the provincial superior of the Indiana Province of the Congregation of Holy Cross, and the local superior of the congregation at Notre Dame. The chairman of the board of trustees is also always a fellow. The rest of the fellows are selected for staggered six-year terms. The fellows meet at least annually and are competent to amend the university's statutes and bylaws and to elect and remove trustees. The board of trustees is much larger than the fellows and currently numbers fifty-seven, composed mostly of laypeople. The board meets tri-annually and is responsible for electing the officers of the university as well as exercising the rest of the corporate powers of the university. The university president is responsible for the overall administration of the university and is ultimately responsible for the hiring of faculty and staff. The president must always be a priest and a member of the Indiana Province of the Congregation of Holy Cross. The Rev. John Jenkins, CSC, DPhil, is the 17th and current president of the university. He is an associate professor in the department of Philosophy. He succeeded the Rev. Edward Malloy, CSC, PhD on July 1, 2005. The university Provost at the University of Notre Dame has responsibility, under the President, for the administration, coordination and development of all of the academic activities and functions of the University. The office has existed since 1970 and has been occupied by four persons: Rev. James Tunstead Burtchaell, C.S.C., 1970-1977; Dr. Timothy O'Meara, 1978-1996, Dr. Nathan Hatch, 1996-2005; and currently, Dr. Thomas Burish.[10]. [edit] Academics
The University's Coat of Arms The University of Notre Dame is ranked #19 in U.S. News & World Report's America's Best Colleges 2008. [edit] FacultyAccording to the Bylaws and Academic Articles of the university, the university faculty are grouped into colleges, schools, institutes, and the library system. [edit] Colleges[edit] College of Arts and LettersEstablished as the university's first and only college in 1842, the College of Arts and Letters is the largest of the four faculty colleges. Housing eighteen departments in the fine arts, the humanities, and the social sciences, the college awards the Bachelor of Arts and the Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in over fifty majors or concentrations. The university's first academic curriculum was modeled after the Jesuit Ratio Studiorum from Saint Louis University.[citation needed] According to the university website, undergraduate studies in the college offer students "a contemporary version of the traditional liberal arts education." The college also offers graduate studies in most of its departments, typically leading to the PhD, as well as a professional Master of Divinity program. [edit] College of ScienceThe science faculty of the university serves as the College of Science. The university first awarded Bachelor of Science degrees in 1865. Today, the College of Science offers curricula leading to the Bachelor of Science, Master of Science, and PhD degrees in the departments of Biological Sciences, Chemistry and Biochemistry, Mathematics, and Physics. The College is housed in the recently-completed $70 million-dollar Jordan Hall of Science. According to university statistics, its science preprofessional program (i.e., pre-med program) has one of the highest acceptance rates to medical school of any university in the United States.[11] [edit] College of EngineeringThe College of Engineering was established as a distinct unit of the University in 1920, although a program in civil engineering was first offered in 1873. The engineering faculty is now organized into the departments of Aerospace and Mechanical Engineering; Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering; Civil Engineering and Geological Sciences; Computer Science and Engineering; and Electrical Engineering; and has curricula leading to Bachelor, Master, and PhD degrees in all those disciplines as well as Environmental Sciences. The College is housed in Fitzpatrick Hall. [edit] College of BusinessEstablished in 1921, the Mendoza College of Business consists of the university's business faculty. It offers the Bachelor of Business Administration degree with concentrations in Accountancy; Finance and Business Economics; Management; Marketing; and Management Information Systems; and was recently ranked 7th in the country out of business schools for undergraduates by Business Week. The college also offers professional studies leading to the Master of Business Administration and Master of Science in Accounting degrees and is ranked among the Top Tier MBA schools in the United States by US News and Business Week 2004 rankings. The Mendoza College of Business also offers an extensive executive education program. [edit] Schools[edit] School of LawNotre Dame Law School is the body of law scholars at the university. Notre Dame was the first Catholic university in the United States to have a law program[12], which was started in 1869 and has consistently ranked among the top 25 law schools in the nation over the past decade according to US News and World Report.[13] Its national program is designed to equip students to practice law in any US jurisdiction. The Law School grants the professional Juris Doctor degree as well as the graduate Master of Laws and Doctor of Juridical Science degrees. [edit] School of ArchitectureThe architecture faculty of the university is organized into the School of Architecture. Courses in architecture were taught at the university as early as 1869, with the School of Architecture offering formal instruction in architecture since 1898. Today, the school offers a five-year undergraduate program leading to the Bachelor of Architecture degree. The program is accredited by the National Architecture Accrediting Board and the curriculum conforms to NAAB requirements for the professional degree in architecture. The school also offers graduate studies leading to the Master of Architecture asdf可爱的江哥：

以下是PSYTOPIC为您提供的分析参考：您在生活中比较一帆风顺，但可能承受不了较大的挫折，容易因为生活中的挫折累积和挑战而感到沮丧。 或许您并不容易沮丧，但碰到大事件或大的挫折时，会有些失去控制感。一般来说，只要挫折不是很大，您都能应付得来。要注意的是，当挫折积累到一定程度时，你会被它淹没，这时逆境会让你疲惫不堪。 称不上积极主动，但也不是逃避责任。有时会把挫折当成外力使然，有时又觉得源于自己。偶尔也可能因为挫折而不必要地自责，觉得自己该为挫折多负点责任，但通常只限于您觉得与自己相关的部分，不愿投入更多。面对太多的压力，会感到厌烦或紧张，这时会发发牢骚。其实您的主动性有进一步提升的潜力。 挫折在您看来，会是特定的某个事件，但偶尔也可能会让挫折影响到生活的其他方面，比如在沮丧的时候，会不自觉放大坏消息的影响，这时需要别人在旁给您提醒，以免掉入情绪陷阱。随着挫折的增加，自己很难将这些挫折单独分开，容易处于压力状态。 在您看来，挫折会是持续的，这种想法有时会阻碍您的行动，导致一些事情被拖延。面对不是太大的挫折，您仍能保持信心，但要注意在脆弱的时候，尤其是在重大挫折面前，您很容易气馁，这时更需要给自己重建信心。
right, I cannot be more fragile at the moment.. there's always a meaning living in the world. and one is to pray and save.. the air is dumb, the crowd is to burst, leaving all elements in ether. what are the hell are humans ?? i agot stuck on checing it out. . 12月1日 臺大相比于大陸的衆多大學，臺灣的學校，用束星北的話說，更像是“過去的學校”。這裏，過去的學校指的是上個世紀二三十年代的中國大學。那時候的學校，還是能留得住胡適這樣的人才的。不能不說，那時候的自由風氣鑄造了專屬于那個時代的大學，從而培養出了那個時代特有的人才。
臺大，國立臺灣大學是也，全臺灣乃至亞洲最好的大學之一。臺灣人看臺大，就像是我們看清華一樣，是個許許多多人夢寐以求的地方。
剛才去看了臺灣大學的網站，看到了他們transfer 的試題：
國語：
作文：生命自然也有懵懂巧遇的時候，不知不覺就開啓了新天地。 以 新天地 為題， 作文一篇。（文言，白話不限）（繁體作答） 這是國語考試唯一的一道題目。
英語：
單項選擇，和我們的高中題目難度大致相同，与考研英語不能同日而語。但其中不乏此類題目：
what kind of exam are you taking at this moment? A: an entrance exam B: a transfer exam C: a transference exam D: a moving exam 物理：
計算題目与sat2 類似，但主觀題目告訴我們，不學習考臺大也是不可以的：
詳述compton效應與其物理意義。 化學：
全部英文作答。內容不乏電子雲排佈，電化學等內容。但他們的主觀ti。。。：
citric acid, which can be obtained from lemon juice, has the molecular formula c6h8o7. a 0.250g sample of citric acid dissolved in 25.0 ml of water requires 37.2 ml of 0.105 m naoh for complete neutralization. how many acidic hydrogens per molecule does citric acid have? 數學： 涉及微積分等高等數學內容。 臺大与大陸的復旦，浙大，大連理工，清華，北大等學校有合作關係和交換項目，美國的哥倫比亞，哈佛，康奈爾，PSU,MSU, CHAPEL HILL,斯坦福，SUNY系列，uc系列，uchic, wustl, u of wash, 等學校有人數較多的友好往來。 臺大的風景優美，周圍有總統府，行政院，教育部等政府機構。畢業學生在台就業率乃全台最高，在海外發展亦具有較强競爭實力。
未來幾年，大陸和臺灣基本沒有可能開放三通和自由旅遊項目。訪問學者和外交簽證亦較難獲得，如今臺灣政局一日三變。若是民進繼續執政，十年后的臺灣不知道會是甚麽樣子。
真想有朝一日到那裏去看一看，領略一下甚麽是所謂的自由与民主，見識見識一個進步 与民主的政黨把一個國家治理成甚麽樣子。
