The populace school originated from the ―Night Club‖ established by Cai Yuanpei,<br />

former president <strong>of</strong> <strong>Peking</strong> <strong>University</strong>, followed by the ―Populace School‖ and<br />

―Populace Educational Group‖ built up by Deng Zhongxia, Liao Shucang and some<br />

other <strong>PKU</strong> students under the guidance and support <strong>of</strong> Mr. Cai. About eighty years<br />

later, <strong>Peking</strong> <strong>University</strong> reinstated the populace school in order to involve more<br />

people in the passing <strong>of</strong> knowledge, helping more people understand the university<br />

culture, promoting a balanced and healthy development <strong>of</strong> society.<br />
