Abstract
This paper explores the synergistic integration of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) culture with the construction of a "scholarly campus" (often translated as "bookish campus" or "campus with the fragrance of books") in Chinese higher education institutions. The scholarly campus initiative emphasizes fostering a reading-oriented, culturally enriched environment to promote intellectual growth and moral development among students. By incorporating TCM principles such as harmony, balance, and holistic well-being, universities can enhance campus culture, improve student health literacy, and align with national policies promoting cultural heritage. Drawing on existing literature and case studies, this study proposes a framework for integration, highlighting benefits like enhanced moral education and innovative teaching methods. The findings suggest that such fusion not only preserves TCM heritage but also contributes to a vibrant, health-conscious academic atmosphere
