A writing implement is an indispensable tool for a journalist. The school’s founder, Mr. She-wo Cheng, made his pen an instrument for justice throughout his lifetime. He insisted on the idea that "a man of integrity should remain virtuous in wealth, steadfast under intimidation, and incorruptible in poverty." The journalist’s pen has become the highest spiritual symbol for the school.
