This year’s National Collegiate Athletic Games will run from April 27 (Sat) to May 1 (Wed). On April 18, the torch for the Games – which gets taken from campus to campus before the Games begin – arrived at the TKU Lanyang Campus, along with this year’s Games mascot, the “New Life” Bull.

The Games will this year be held at the National Ilan University, which is where the torch will end up after traveling thousands of kilometers around the mountainous terrain of Taiwan. The torch arrived at the Lanyang Campus at 2:30pm, where it switched hands in a “handover ceremony” led by the Lanyang Campus Provost, Dr. Jyh-Horng Lin; the TKU Dean of Physical Education, Dr. Hsiao Shu-fen; and the Dean of the College of Global Entrepreneurial Development, Dr. Lion Ay-hwa.
