岁月钟声
历史回响
参加了该校友会活动，才知道它在新竹交大的建立中（如下面英文介绍所述）起了重大作用。
听新竹交大校友们说，前辈学长们用义演义卖、个人捐款等各种活动和形式，为新竹交大筹款。每筹到一万美金，台湾政府就match一万美金。两万美元年薪在当时就能为交大雇到一位教授。新竹交大就是在这基础上，正式建校的。
ZT About CTUAAA
Chiao-Tung University Alumni Association in America (CTUAAA) was established half a century ago in New York City by Alumni 赵曾珏(1924), 陈广沅(1922) and 陈良辅(1923), 欧阳藻(1927), etc. Since then, the number of CTUAAA members kept growing and reached 400 by 1965. In 1980, alumnus 王安 came up with and started to promote the idea of Reunion of alumni from Five Chiao-Tung University campuses, including National Chiao Tung University, Shanghai Jiao Tong University, Xi’an Jiaotong University, Southwest Jiaotong University and Northern Jiaotong University. CTUAAA was now recognized as one of the most companionate, friendly and well-organized Chinese alumni associations in America.
Through holding a big gathering every five years and celebrating the centennial anniversary, CTUAAA has brought together the alumni all over America and built up strong tie between the overseas alumni and the five Chiao-Tung University campuses in China. In 1996, to celebrate the centennial anniversary of Chiao-Tung University, the then chairman James Chao and president Benjamin Cheng organizedorganized more than 100 alumni to visit five Chiao-Tung University campuses in Hsinchu, Shanghai, Xi’an, Chengdu, and Beijing.
CTUAAA has also done great contribution to the successful establishment of Electronic Engineering Institute in National Chiao Tung University. 赵曾珏, the then president of CTUAAA, initiated the idea of starting the Electronic Engineering Institute in 1966 during the celebration of 60th anniversary of Chiao-Tung University, which was recognized a first and very important step toward the re-establishment of the Chiao Tung University in Taiwan, namely the now National Chiao-Tung University.
The main objectives of CTUAAA and CTUAFA (Chiao Tung University Alumni Foundation of America, Inc, a non-profit educational organization) are to develop the unity of spirit among the alumni throughout America, coordinate alumni reunions, aid the Chiao Tung Universities in financing their educational activities, and aid the alumni and faculties of the Universities and their immediate family members in pursuit of higher education.
