Description: |
|
In 1987, on the occasion of the 70th anniversary of its
establishment, Chulalongkorn University requested permission
from His Majesty the King to create a monument depicting King
Chulalongkorn and Crown Prince Maha Vajiravudh, who later became
King Vajiravudh. The statues of both monarchs were placed on a
high platform in front of the University’s Main Auditorium. On
the same occasion, the University initiated the tradition of
freshmen paying respect and taking an oath in front of the
monument as part of their initiation rites on becoming a
Chulalongkorn University student. Graduates, after the
graduation ceremony, will also pay homage to the monument to
mark their farewell to their University life. |
