Introduction
In order to celebrate the 50th Anniversary of National Chiao Tung University, the Alumni Association invited artist Mr. Tseng to create the piece “Passing On the Flame”. This masterpiece symbolized the educational mission of the University to pass on knowledge on to future generations of students. The 16 columns and 8 bamboo pipes represent the eight colleges. The graceful outline of the water as it shoots up high over Bamboo Lake is sure to be remembered. The columns from each side can shoot out powerful jets of water, and form a rainbow on sunny days. What a magnificent scene!
