我的回憶

 

          民國二十八年,我出生在戰亂時期的大陸,十歲時隨父母到了台灣,小學六年住了許多不同的地方,唸了九所不同的學校。進了高雄中學,才算是安定地唸了六年的中學,並得以保送而進了成大土木系。在成大四年功課繁重,當時需要完成170學分才能畢業。离開了成大,服了兵役,來到美國,以三年半的時間完成學業以後,就到聖地亞哥卅立大學開始了教學與科研的工作,惚惚地做了四十年,才於2007年退修。美國的學士學位只需要130 學分左右,遠比當年成大的要求為低,但很多美國的大學生都有工作,他們的大學生活也很緊張忙碌。

        

          當年的成大土木系有幾位非常好的教授,同學們至今仍怀念林柏堅教授,左利時教授,成功大學給了我們很好的工程基礎。我們那幾屆的同學,有的在台灣,有的回到僑居地,但以出國者為多。至今我們已到退修年齡,同學們的事業均很順利成功,不負母校的裁培。我個人感到非常幸運,因為我對工作熱愛,任教四十年,我一直興趣不減,而在科研與資訊工作上,我至今沒有停頓。

        

          五年以前,我應中興大學陳樹群教授邀請,在全省水利會議上作主題講話,並得以至台大、中興、逢甲大學作演講與參觀,然後再南下至成大演講,並得以與水利系同學師長相聚,參觀母校,見到成大快速進步,令人欣慰。

        

          成功大學的畢業生最受台灣企業界歡迎重用,願全体校友百尺桿頭更進一步,為自己成功而努力,也為成功大學爭取更大的光榮。
