Flag in use in 2018

A red flag with the logo and name in yellow was used by a team summiting Mount Everest. The black markings on the flag appear to be writing, and are likely not to be a part of the actual flag.

Description of the flag until 1949

Proportions 2:3 or 1:2.

The correct English name still is Peking University.

The seal of Peking University was designed in 1917 by renowned writer Lu Xun, while the flag was designed by Cai Yuanpei, President of Peking University from 1916 to 1927.
According to Cai, the red-blue-yellow tricolour represents the sciences, specifically 'phenomenal science' (physics, chemistry. etc.), 'occurring science' (history, evolution), and 'systemic science' (botany, zoology, physiology); the white hoist represents philosophy which emcompasses the sciences; and the black university seal represents 'xuanxue' (metaphysics) which cannot be proven by science. As the sciences are studied by the most people and for the most time, followed by philosophy and then 'xuanxue', so does the tricolour occupy the largest portion of the flag, followed by the white hoist and then the black seal.
This flag has not been used since 1949. The current official flag of the university is white, with the modernised version of the university seal in the upper centre, above Chairman Mao Zedong's writing of the University's name, both in ruby red; a semi-official version is 'national flag' red, with the modernised university seal in the canton, above Chairman Mao's writing of the University's name, both in yellow.

This institution is affiliated to Beijing University and, from what I can gather, is probably an autonomous branch campus well on its way toward full independent status.

Now it comes to the unidentified pennant on the webpage.
In 1937, due to the Sino-Japanese War, Peking University, Tsinghua University and Nankai University relocated to Changsha and amalgamated as the National Changsha Provisional University; the following year it relocated again to Kunming and renamed the National Southwestern Associated University, until it was de-amalgamated after the war in 1946. The pennant bears the name of the National Southwestern Associated University.
