Our Name
Eunoia (yoo-noh-iea) means beautiful thinking, goodwill to all, and a bridging of the heart and the mind. Eunoia is an English word with Greek origins, and is made up of two parts: ‘eu’ meaning good and ‘noia’ referring to the mind.
In Nicomachean Ethics, Aristotle refers to eunoia as the pursuit of the good of all, and the desire for the good of the other person in friendships. Friendships are in their fullest and most enduring form when one gives and cares without seeking benefits for oneself.
‘The perfect form of friendship is that between the good, and those who resemble each other in virtue. For these friends wish each alike the other’s good in respect of their goodness, and they are good in themselves; but it is those who wish the good of their friends for their friends’ sake who are friends in the fullest sense, since they love each other for themselves and not accidentally.’
In the words of Aristotle, we believe that ‘Educating the mind without educating the heart is no education at all.’
Our Crest
The college crest can be understood by three qualities, or simply A-B-C: All-round Development, Beautiful Thinking and Cultural Conversance.
All-round Development
The circular shape of the crest signifies the holistic development of Eunoians. This roundedness is complemented by the geometry of the college wordmark and typeface.
Beautiful Thinking
The design of the crest is inspired by the neural networks of the human brain, and signifies beautiful thinking.
Cultural Conversance
The design represents the college’s name Eunoia, an English word with an Asian theme. Eunoians are able to thrive in diverse cultural settings, while remaining rooted to their own culture.
