The school motto of "Self-improvement, Morality-oriented" embodies the spirit of Tsinghua and is the pillar and soul of Tsinghua's spiritual culture. It has not only profoundly influenced generations of Tsinghua students, but also remains the spiritual symbol of self-motivation and social influence of graduates after entering the society.
"Self-improvement" means always working hard and never stopping. This sentence shows the spirit of struggle of the Chinese nation. In political life, never bow to foreign aggression or compromise with bad forces; In personal life, we emphasize the independence of personality, and our ambition is irresistible.
Being virtuous and carrying things means being broad-minded and inclusive. In China, Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism are all inclusive, which is unique to China. There are religious wars in western history, but not in China, which is undoubtedly a major feature of China culture. Self-improvement' is the spirit of struggle, and' respecting morality and carrying things' is the spirit of compatibility. This is the basic spirit of China culture, which can be called "China spirit".
