A 3D-printed version of a 2nd gate at Tsinghua University is now appearing on the school's 2018 admission letter.

现在，清华大学3D打印版的“二校门”出现在了该校2018年的录取通知书上。

This art work, made by faculty¹ and students at Tsinghua, contains more than 30 components² and over a hundred interlocking structures created using laser cutting technology.

这件工艺品由清华大学师生共同打造，包含了30多个部件和上百个通过激光雕刻技术制作的拼插结构。

As the candidate opens the package, the sculpture pops out from the page.

报考者打开录取通知书，3D二校门就会跃然纸上。

"To include a 3D sculpture of the Old Gate in the acceptance package," said the Tsinghua Admission Office, "is to convey its elegance³ and solemnity throughout history, and also to carry other meanings in the new era: inspiration and wisdom, youth and the future."

清华大学招生办表示：“将3D二校门放在录取通知书上既传递着历史的端庄与厚重，也承载着新时代中的另一番意味：灵感与智慧、青春与未来。”

The university posted the acceptance letter on their official Weibo account, captioned⁴ "When you cross the Old Gate in August, a new world will emerge in front of you, and a brand-new Tsinghua awaits your discovery and creation."

清华大学将该录取通知书贴在了其官方微博上，并写道：“当你在盛夏八月穿过这座'二校门'，一个全新的世界将在你面前徐徐铺开，一个崭新的清华将等待你探索与创造。”

The Old Gate, therefore, is no longer just a gate; but a turning point, a milestone⁵, and the beginning of adult life for these new undergraduates.

因此，二校门不再仅仅是一扇门；还是一个转折点，一座里程碑，也是这些大学新生的成年生活的开始。

The post quickly went viral, one netizen commenting "I am losing my mind. I want it."

该贴迅速走红网络，一位网友评论称：“我飘了，我想要。”
