Convocation Newsletter, Spring 2019

The University of Hong Kong Convocation 香港大學畢業生議會 is a statutory body comprising all graduates and teaching staff of the University. Over the past two years, Dr Poon has been impressed by the successful events arranged by the Convocation. Some members visited the new residential halls and revisited the campus. Additionally, a trip was organised to visit the University of Hong Kong-Shenzhen Hospital, which Dr Poon noted “will be of great geographic and academic significance to the HKU Medical School in the future.” He encourages all HKU alumni and teaching staff to enjoy the 60th anniversary activities of Convocation. “I know how much we all cared for the University during our time there, and I hope all of you will continue to stay connected with our beloved alma mater . I sincerely call for Convocation members to take an active part in the upcoming celebration activities.” Text and photos by the Communications Sub-Committee of HKU Convocation. “Retire or Excel: What Retirement Policy Works Best for HKU?” (Nov 19, 2018): The then-Provost and Deputy Vice-Chancellor Professor Paul Tam 譚廣亨 ; Professor Joseph Chan 陳祖為 , former Council member; Dr Max Wong 王慧麟 , assistant professor; and Professor Sealing Cheng 鄭詩靈 , The Chinese University of Hong Kong.
