WELCOME TO THE NEW ACADEMIC YEAR OF 2022-23
The Centre of Development and Resources for Students (CEDARS) has always strived to promote dialogues between staff and students on campus. In September, the Dean of Student Affairs (DoSA) and student representatives from the Council and Senate will be hosting three Friday lunchtime Zoom webinars: “Working Together to Keep the Campus Safe and Vibrant”, “What Does ‘HKUer’ Mean?” and “Students’ Partnership in University Administration”.
My personal invitation to you:
On behalf of CEDARS, may I invite you all to come and join us. Through these dialogues, we hope we could embrace fruitful conversations. Just to share, listen and be around one another within this HKU family. We have all missed the vibrancy and energy of our campus. Let’s join hands to work together in making HKU a better place for us all.
See you in September!
Professor Samson Tse
Dean of Student Affairs
