National Taiwan Normal University College of Liberal Arts Guidelines for “College Emblem” Design Selection
The Guidelines were approved at the College Affairs Meeting of the College of Liberal Arts on September 20, 2012 and signed on September 28, 2012
Objective
A selection activity is held in order to request a College Emblem for National Taiwan Normal University’s College of Liberal Arts, which will represent the humanistic characteristics of the College and build up its excellent image.Purpose
The College was established in 1955. After more than 50 years of determined development, the College now has five departments: Chinese; English; History; Geography; and Taiwan Culture, Languages and Literature; the two independent institutes of translation and interpretation studies and Taiwan history; and both the Center for Humanities Education and Research and the International Taiwan Studies Center. With the exception of the Institute of Taiwan History which only has a master’s program, all six departments have master’s and doctoral programs. There are currently 247 full-time and part-time teachers and more than 2,500 students in the College.
The teachers from all departments of the College all have abundant research expertise and are active in both domestic and international academic activities. Within the various departments and institutes, no matter whether it is the teachers’ instructions and research or the students’ life and learning experiences, they complement each other and share in each other’s honor and disrepute, which renders all members of the College worthy of being both “teachers and role models.” In order to build up the excellent image of the College, and at the same time solicit the emblem of the College’s conference room, we must create a new College Emblem to highlight the uniqueness of the College.Design Direction
(1) The design submitted by each contributor is not limited to one submission; the College Emblem must incorporate the spirit of the University’s Emblem (6 bronze cast bells) and emphasize the characteristics of the College.
(2) The graphic design should be clear and easy to recognize, and clearly distinguishable from other colleges or schools.
