Abstract
Historians of modem Taiwan history generally ignored the problem of the history of National Taiwan University (Taidai), especially during the transition period from the end of Japanese colonialism to the loss of the Mainland to the Communist regime. The history of Taidai and her Liberal Arts College is not only about one university, one college, but also an important issue of Chinese academic history and the cultural history of Taiwan. This article focuses on the second president Lu Chih-houng's (陸志鴻) administration of Taidai, and the evolution of the Liberal Arts College affairs. The main discoveries are: first of all, Lu's appointment as the President was supported by Governor Chen-yi (陳儀), the ruler of Taiwan province, and the political power extended thus to the campus of Taidai. Second, "the February twenty-eighth incident" happened during this period, and professor Lin Mu-shen (林茂生), acting dean of the Liberal Arts College, was arrested and killed by political authorities. What was the role of President Lu and Taidai in this tragic affair? Third, Chien Ge-chuan (錢歌川), the first dean of the college, took office just after the incident. What were his administrative ideas and practical methods? Fourth, the instruction and research works of the time is rarely mentioned, as this was a transition period of considerable turmoil.
