The TKU Goodwill Ambassador Association was established in 1997. Over the last 15 years, it have served as the "face of Tamkang", with its members responsible for greeting visitors and taking them on detailed tours of the Tamsui Campus.

To share the joy and honor of 15 years of tireless service, the association recently held a 15th anniversary exhibition entitled "Memories, Goodwill, and Fate - Love is in the Air" (Feb 19-21).

The Goodwill Ambassadors uphold principles of enthusiasm, service, and a friendly attitude. Before being inducted as members, they undergo a stringent training process which involves etiquette, personal grooming, and tour guide skills. Association members help to receive international visitors to TKU, assist during major TKU events and activities, and serve as emcees at a range of international conferences.

Upon hearing of the exhibition, a number of local Taiwanese universities traveled great distances to attend the 15-year milestone event. One of the visitors, Director Lin Po-huang from Transworld University, Yunlin, expressed that he attended the event because "the TKU Goodwill Ambassadors are a very well-organized group". Director Lin came to the event to learn about the administrative processes implemented by the group and possibly apply some of this knowledge to similar associations at his university.
