云南岗校园有相隔一年的两段历史，反映两间迥然不同的大学。前有1953年到1980年著名民办的南洋大学，后有源自1982年理工学院的南洋理工大学，这是众人皆晓的史实。虽然有1995年的“理大”改为“南大”和1996年的毕业生迁册，但是南洋理工大学本身在2001和2002年，还名正言顺地庆祝歌颂自己的成就与历史。 | |
| 2001年7月 | "Happy 20th NTU! In a short span of 20 years, and without sacrificing quality and excellence, NTU has made an impressive contribution to our nation... Born as Nanyang Technological Institute (NTI) in 1981" (《NTUNEWS No. 41》) |
| 2002年10月 | 南洋理工大学庆祝21周年，连任20年的首任校长詹道存推出介绍南洋理工大学的新书 "COMING OF AGE" (《NTUNEWS No. 46》) |
| |
| 2003年3月2日 | “至于国立南洋大学的建议，除非前后校友都不认同，而仍要去掉「理工」，才有必要这么做。其实如果两方面都极力反对，保留南洋理工大学也无妨。……他们认同的话，我们当然欢迎他们给学弟妹作个榜样。如果不认同，也无所谓，我觉得不必强求。我们需为年轻一代、为未来做事，而不是为了情意结或感情”(《亚洲周刊》专访徐冠林) |
| 2003年7月21日 | "After the demise of Nanyang University, this campus saw a second beginning in Nanyang Technological Institute, established in 1981 to train practice oriented engineers" (《NTU迎新日》徐冠林演讲) |
| 2003年7月26日 | “改制，用英文，都改变不了最后与新大合并的命运，南大被合并，是这段历史中一个令人痛心的结果。南洋大学成为了历史名词，只留下众多校友和华社的南大情结”(《南洋大学到南洋理工大学──华文教育的回顾与前瞻》徐冠林专题演讲) |

| 2003年9月8日 | "In 1955, this beautiful piece of land saw the establishment of Nanyang University... Thus began the first chapter of Yunnan Garden... The second chapter of Yunnan Garden began right after the close of the first chapter. A completely new model of engineering school was established: the Nanyang Technological Institute (NTI)... We are now on the threshold of the Third Chapter" (《NTU毕业典礼》徐冠林演讲) |
| 2004年2月 | "History -- Nanyang Technological University (NTU) was established by an Act of Parliament on 1st July 1991. It has its origin in the former Nanyang Technological Institute (NTI) which was set up in August 1981... It occupies the beautiful campus of the Nanyang University in Jurong. 'Nantah', it's abbreviated name, was later merged with the University of Singapore to become the National University of Singapore (NUS) in 1980... NTI admitted its first batch of 582 engineering students in July 1982" (《NTU网站》) |
| |
| 2004年7月12日 | "At the opening ceremony of the Conference on International Boundaries and Cultural Configurations on 23rd June, Senior Minister Lee Kuan Yew was asked if NTU could be renamed as Nanyang University. He reiterated the position that the issue of renaming Nanyang Technological University as Nanyang University is not critical to the government as long as the NTU alumni identify with and support such a name change... Once NTU has developed into a strong comprehensive university, with strong faculty and students across all its different schools, we will be in a better position to assess, together with the NTU alumni, if the University should be renamed" (《NTU毕业典礼》徐冠林演讲) |
| 2004年7月26日 | "In 1981 Yunnan Garden became silent. In 1982 another pioneer group came into the campus. Engineers, infused with ideals and passion for building and creating a better life for society. They wrote a new chapter of Yunnan Garden... You, the class of 2008, are pioneers of Chapter Three" (《NTU迎新日》徐冠林演讲) |
| |
| 2004年11月27日 | "Next year, the year 2005, will be the 50th year since the founding of Nanyang University, our predecessor institution that first planted the seeds of knowledge in Yunnan Garden" (《NTU校友回校日》徐冠林演讲) |
| 2005年7月11日 | "Nanyang University and Nanyang Technological University have a colourful history. People still argue today about which pieces are part of our history. Even many of our historical archives lie elsewhere... If we want to keep up and to move into the lead, we cannot afford to dwell on the past and dissipate our energy on petty squabbling" (《NTU毕业典礼》徐冠林演讲) |
| |
| 2005年7月┄现在 | "History -- Nanyang Technological University (NTU) has a distinguished lineage with roots that go back to 1955... Nanyang Technological Institute (NTI) was established on the same campus in 1981 with government funding... In 1991, NTI became Nanyang Technological University. Nanyang University is not Nanyang Technological University... The alumni rolls of the former Nanyang University were transferred to NTU in 1996" (《NTU网站》) |
| 2005年8月29日 | “南大过去五十年的发展相当曲折。因为社会环境的变迁，南大也改变了方向和教学体制，先是改成南洋理工学院，后来升格为南洋理工大学，迄今先后培养了近十万名学生”(《NTU建校五十年周年》李显龙演讲) |
| 2005年12月17日 | "Fifty years ago, our forefathers built on this beautiful piece of land a garden campus for a new university, the Nanyang University... I welcome all our alumni gathered here tonight, graduating from one or more of the predecessor institutions" (《NTU校友之夜》徐冠林演讲) |

| 2005年8月29日 | "When I first took up appointment at this university, I found a university strong in basics and fundamentals thanks to the 21 years that Dr Cham Tao Soon put in.

| 2006年3月21日 | "The founding president of Nanyang Technological University (NTU), Professor Cham Tao Soon, has been named the first recipient of the British Royal Academy of Engineering who lives outside the European Union and has made outstanding and sustained personal achievement in engineering, including academic leadership. The academy praised Prof Cham for developing NTU from scratch, growing its student population from just 582 in 1982 to the current 23,000" (《海峡时报》) |
