参考译文：Educationalist Mei Yiqi was born in Tianjin. In 1909, he passed the

examination and became one of the first Tsinghua students to study in America,

majoring in electrical engineering at Worcester Polytechnic Institute. In September, 1915

he was invited to work at Tsinghua University as a professor of physics and was

appointed Dean of Studies in 1926. He was appointed president of Tsinghua University in

1931 and did not leave the post until by the end of 1948. Under his leadership, Tsinghua

University quickly ranked among world famous universities in many aspects in a matter

of just a few years. An educationalist himself, he established a complete ideological

system of education. His strategy of running the university comprises three parts, i.e.,

general education (also known as “free education”), professor management(also

called “democratic management”) and academic freedom(or “the atmosphere of free

discussion”). His representative work is

An interpretation of University,

which was

published in 1941. And his famous saying “it is great masters, not huge buildings that

characterize a university” is still thought highly of by the educational circles even to this

day.
