Preservation of National Arts, Thai Classical Music and Traditional Dance Performance

Thammasat University has always been one of the key contributors to Thai society in preserving and promoting national arts and cultural works through both academic and public performances. For academic, several courses relating to Thai cultures are offered in undergraduate and graduate levels in Faculty of Fine and Applied Arts, Faculty of Architecture, and Faculty of Sociology and Anthropology.

Faculty of Fine and Applied Arts of Thammasat University offers many classes related to Thai classical music, western music and Thai performing arts (Thai traditional dance, Thai pantomime).  The faculty established art-related student clubs and organized annual performances both for the University’s events and anniversaries as well as other public performances and fund-raising events.

Establishing and promoting art-related student clubs

The four oldest student’s clubs are TU Band (established since 1948), Thai Traditional Dance Club (established since 1958), Thai Classical Music Club (established since 1963) and Khon Thammasat (established since 1966). Since then, many groups of students, who have passion for classical music, traditional Thai dance and performing arts, gathered together to form clubs such as TU Symphony Orchestra, TU Chorus, TU Folksong, Thai Traditional Dance, and Chinese Opera Club.

The Six Most Famous Club and Oldest Club in Thammasat University

One of the most active art-related clubs is TU Folk Song club which organizes its own shows known as “Laan Folk” twice a year and participates in the University’s events that are open to the public, including TU Freshy Games, Club Festivals, Thammasat Open House, and more than 30 performances each year. TU Symphony Orchestra organizes annual concerts, which in 2023, came in the theme “Early Summer Love”, and several other ad-hoc themed concerts, such as Débutante Concert, Evergreen Concert, and Christmas Countdown 2023.

Thai Classical Music club and Thai Traditional Dance club have their own traditional events and performance, such as “Wai Kru” ceremony, annual student orientation day, traditional football event, and religious events. TU Drama Club also organizes at least 2 public performances per year, including Hello Drama and its annual showcase. Last but not least, with its uniqueness, the Chinese Opera club of the Faculty of Social Administration organizes annual and occasional shows specifically for political parody during the political events and movements.

Thammasat University Symphony Orchestra

TU Symphony Orchestra – Facebook

TU Symphony Orchestra was established on June 27, 2002 which coincides with the founding anniversary of Thammasat University. It was formed by a group of Thammasat University students from different faculties who had a passion for classical music and wanted the opportunity to perform to the public, both inside and outside the university. The group was initially called “TU Chamber”. However, because of the tremendous interests and increasing number of members, the name is changed to TU Symphony Orchestra (TUSO) to be more appropriate for the activities and types of the performance.  TUSO is not just a band but a place to exchange knowledge, to learn about classical music, and most importantly, to be able to contribute to the society through their passions and the love of music.

In 1982, the Chinese Opera Society of the Faculty of Social Administration, Thammasat University (COS, FSA), was founded with inspiration from the Thammasat University Drama Club. COS is organised by students, mainly from the faculty of Social Administration.

There are five divisions within COS: costume, makeup, and hair stylists, narrators, performers, and musicians. Each division is comprised of different genders and college-aged individuals. Prior to each performance, students compose a story that frequently criticises the Thai government and reflects their thoughts on socioeconomic and political challenges in Thai society. COS performances incorporate the Thai language and traditional Chinese costumes.

Each year, more than 10 shows take place in diverse locations across the country. Importantly, COS’s goals have always stimulated society and echoed the people’s voices in the Thai challenges.

THAMMASAT UNIVERSITY MOVE TOWARDS TO SMART UNIVERSITY

Thammasat University is moving closer to its goals set in the 12th Thammasat University Strategic Plan (2017-2021), focusing on the development of education that ‘responds to’ the future and pursuing ‘the best sustainable and smart university’ strategy.

Consequently, the university has prioritized its new role to create and promote ‘participation in the holistic environmental conservation’, connecting the way of life of more than 40,000 people living in the campus to the use of ‘Circular Living’ resources.

Assoc. Prof. Gesinee Witoonchart, Rector of Thammasat University, reveals that Thammasat University is an educational institution with a vision to become a full-fledged sustainable university in which students, staffs, lecturers, and all administrators are altogether the drivers of this campaign.

As a result, Thammasat University is currently considered as a good ‘model’ for others in Thai society.

“The key in moving towards to ‘Smart University’ of Thammasat University is to create balance and sustainability for the society by reducing the use of energy, introduce alternatives for renewable energy through the Smart Energy Project, Smart Transportation Project, Waste Management Project, and reduce the use of plastic,” Gesinee said.

In this regard, Thammasat University, Rangsit Campus, has initiated the Solar Rooftop installation project with an objective to generate electricity at 10 megawatts or one in third of the amount of electricity used in the campus. Also, within the year 2020, all electrical equipment will be changed to energy saving, reducing the use of electricity by another 30%.

Recently, the shop namely ‘Term Tem Refill Shoppe’ has been opened in Thammasat University, Rangsit Campus, to offer bulk stores service, where users must carry their own packaging. Under the “Zero Waste” target to reduce waste to zero, this policy has encouraged our human resources to change their behavior, leading to the environmental preservation for this world.

Prof. Parinya Thewanaruemitkul, Vice Rector of Thammasat University for Administration and Sustainability, Rangsit Campus, said that the ‘Term Tem Refill Shoppe‘ shop project is one of tangible examples to show our commitment to reduce the use of energy because the product with a single-use plastic container consumes energy in production process, which more than 80% of the fuel come from fossils, heating the planet. Therefore, the refusing to the use since the beginning or reducing the use of plastic will help reduce greenhouse gas emissions and will not create the waste disposal burden at the same time.

The ‘Term Tem Refill Shoppe’ consists of coffee shop, which does not use any plastic in any process and use only environmentally friendly containers. Meanwhile, the shop is a convenient store selling a variety of foods and goods to students and staffs of the university with no use of plastic bags.

Moreover, the university has also concerned with the zero-emission transportation system, without carbon dioxide emission. “We have already pushed forward the use of bicycles, electric scooter, and will soon kick off the electric vehicles (EV) project under the car sharing or carpool concept,” Parinya said.

The pilot project on ‘Green Space Add up‘ to absorb carbon dioxide, the remodeling the ‘deck‘ area of the building as a ‘chemical-free vegetable plot’ will be held at the ‘100-Year Puey Learning Park Building‘ in December 2019. Under the ‘Waste Management’ project, all convenience stores in the campus are now stop using single-use plastic containers, and will discontinue the plastic bags under every condition on January 1, 2020.

Dr. Parinya said that the important mission of the university is to achieve the ‘Sustainable Development Goals: SDGs’ as the most urgent issue on the chapter 13 on Climate Action, which aims to reduce global warming, resulting in Zero Carbon by 100% within seven years.

“Thammasat has shown the intention to raise awareness and change the attitude towards sustainability of students, lecturers, personnel, as well as general people to turn to pay attention to the environment through various policies. Finally, Thammasat University has become a leader in sustainable management in the educational institute,” he said.

With the university’s vision and cooperation of all parties, Thammasat University has created an environmentally friendly network and is moving towards a sustainable educational institution – a Smart University of the future.
