NTU drops word ‘national’ when dealing with China

By J. Michael Cole  /  Staff Reporter

Almost every department at National Taiwan University (NTU), the nation’s
top academic institution, is dropping the “N” from the school’s initials
when it holds joint conferences with Chinese schools or cooperates on
academic work, sources said yesterday.

The practice, described as “university-wide,” began more than a year ago, a
source at the university told the Taipei Times on condition of anonymity,
referring to official documents on conferences and panels held with Chinese
universities.

According to another academic at the school who was also in a position to see
the documents, the removal of the “N” in the university’s official
initials — a source of pride for many Taiwanese — applied to “a lot of, if
not all departments” involved in exchanges with China. However, it has yet
to be determined whether the practice is now official policy at the
university or was initiated by department heads or individual academics.

NTU was 87th in this year’s QS World University Rankings.

References to the school as “Taiwan University” began to appear about a
year ago, including Peking University’s holding of a “Taiwan University Day
” on Dec. 20 last year to “strengthen intercollegiate exchanges and
academic co-operations [sic] with our university,” NTU says on its Web site.
A special exhibition held in May highlighting the ties between the two
universities was titled “Time and space rendezvous between Taiwan University
and Peking University.”

A document datelined May 11 on the Peking University Web site refers to NTU
as “Taiwan University” and also excises the word “national” from National
Chengchi University, National Taiwan Normal University (NTNU), National
Central University and National Cheng Kung University.

NTNU confirmed at a forum on cross-strait affairs in July that it had changed
its name in advertisements in an effort to attract more Chinese students.
That change, which university officials said was a gesture of “goodwill”
 toward China, was the removal of “national” from its official title.

In August, a neurobiologist at Peking University made the news after
insisting that a Taiwanese team led by neurobiologist Chiang Ann-shyn (江安世
) of National Tsing Hua University in Hsinchu, which collaborated with Peking
University on research, identify the university as being located in “Taiwan,
China.”

In addition to the removal of “national” from its official title, there are
signs NTU is placing undue emphasis on visiting academics from China at the
expense of academics from other countries.

The Web site for NTU’s Institute of Advanced Studies of Humanities and
Social Sciences, for example, shows that of the 52 visiting scholars at the
institute this year, 46 have been from Chinese universities, with just four
from the US and two from Europe.
