ABSTRACT
College
culture is university subculture, and a unique organization culture form
created, discovered, and developed from long-term teaching management practice,
generally accepted, recognized, and followed by teachers and students of
college/school/department. College culture can be concluded in “academic
culture,” “administrative culture,” “association culture” based on “functional
form of culture,” or “teacher culture,” “student culture,” and “administer
culture,” according to “the subject form of culture.” Except “classification,”
it can be divided into three levels of “material,” “institution,” and “spirit”;
or four levels of “material,” “institution,” “behavior,” and “spirit.” College
culture, compared to campus culture, is a subculture, but has its independence
and dissimilarity. At management aspects, college culture has directing
function, cohere function, constrain function, incentive function, coordination
function, and assimilation function. At social aspects, college culture has radiation function and image-building function. At
education aspects, college culture can have an impact on students’ professional
qualities, moral character, and personality growth. Cultural
construction should be conducted adhering to the principle of “overarching and
guiding,” “materialization and enrichment,” and “specificity and characteristic.”
