The emblem is based on a simple circular design, featuring a black-and-white color scheme paired with a violin graphic that clearly represents the nature of the club. The circular edge is enhanced with a white border, creating a solemn demeanor and reinforcing the concept of the emblem. The font utilizes brush-style lettering to prominently display the words "Tamkang String Orchestra," clearly presenting the club's name. This design creates a striking and vivid collision between Eastern calligraphy and Western classical instruments, symbolizing the Tamkang String Orchestra's spirit of breakthrough and innovation.

Currently, there are about 8 planned participation certification activities, including three for ensemble practice, group classes, and sectional rehearsals. Members need to dedicate time each week for these courses, and as long as they maintain a 60% attendance rate, they will receive participation certification. Other activities will require check-in and check-out, and confirmation that members have not left midway to qualify for participation certification. Ensemble practice is held on Tuesdays, group classes on Wednesdays, and sectional rehearsals on Thursdays. The activities planned for September include the initial club meeting on the 19th and the welcome event for new members on the 28th. In October, there will be a gathering on the 24th, and in December, the salon concert on the 4th, the end-of-semester concert on the 17th, and the end-of-semester members' meeting on the 19th.
Currently, approximately 4 execution certification activities are planned: Club Night, the salon concert, and the end-of-semester concert. Members who assist with behind-the-scenes work, such as creating posters, setting up the venue, arranging chairs, and placing music stands, will receive execution certification.
