HKU Lap-Chee College

Hong Kong Series has organised a visit to the Photo Exhibition 'Recovery, Resilience, Resurgence' in Asia Society on 4 June 2022. It's our absolute honour to have Mr Edward Stokes, curator of the exhibition, to be our guide for this event 😍🥳 Mr Stokes depicted the 30 years of all significant changes from the 1940s to the 1970s by presenting precious photos taken by 3 photographers with different life backgrounds who recorded Hong Kong during the crucible decades. 🎞️

Stories of these distinctive old photos were intriguing and relatable as they were showcased on a personal level. 🌇 It was a great opportunity for all of us to relive the past and learned about Hong Kong's historical transition from a trade port to an international city through historic photographs 📸 and the fruitful tour led by Mr Stokes.

The exhibition is sponsored by Dr Patrick P**n and now extended to 31 July. If you are interested, please visit https://asiasociety.org/hong-kong/exhibitions/recovery-resilience-resurgence-fusushengxinizhongqiucunzhongzhenqigu

[Lap Chee High Table Dinner]

Since the COVID-19 situation, after a long-time preparation work, the Lap-Chee College managed to resume our signature event– the Lap-Chee High Table Dinner in November. In view of the social distancing, the event was divided into 2 sessions: 5th November for odd-numbered floors and 17th November for even-numbered floors. In the first session, Master Professor Yuen Man-fung, Professor Tsui Lap-chee, Dr Patrick P**n Sun-cheong and Mr Samuel P**n were invited as guests. In the second session, we invited Mr Kwan Chuk-fai to join us.

At the beginning of each High Table Dinner, all the Lap-Cheers were standing to welcome all the guests, including benefactors and our tutorial team members. Professor Lap-Chee Tsui gave an interesting speech about the origins of our college and encouraged all Lap-Cheers to balance their life and study. Master Professor Yuen Man-fung welcomed all the Lap-Cheers and wished them to enjoy their life in Lap-Chee college.

An Admission Ceremony was also simultaneously held where all newcomers were presented with green (for undergraduate) or black (for postgraduate) gowns, symbolizing that they were admitted to Lap-Chee College and formally became a Lap-Cheer. Each floor also had a precious opportunity to take photos with guests.

At the end of the event, the Lap Chee College’s music society gave us a wonderful performance. Everyone enjoyed the beautiful songs accompanied by the piano. Jenny, a new Lap-Cheer said, “this is a brilliant experience for me, the speech is good, and it also gives me a chance to chat with people from different floors and different backgrounds.”

[LCC Halloween Event: Squid Game]

On October 29, the Lap Chee Ambassador Team organized a Halloween event that was inspired by the popular Netflix series, “The Squid Game”.

The Lap Chee Ambassadors were able to successfully bring in the thrilling vibe from the series. At the entrance, all the participants were greeted by the red suit guard from the series. When they entered the venue, they were assigned to complete three games which are the Ddakji Game, Marble Game, and Guess What’s in the Box Game. If they managed to complete all of the games, they were rewarded with the famous Dalgona Candy and many other snacks. Furthermore, the team also prepared a photobooth for the participants to keep their memories of the event.

The event ran out smoothly and successfully as all of the participants enjoyed and had a good time mingling with the other Lap Cheers. Janet, one of the participants, claimed that the night, especially the Guess What’s in the Box Game, was fun and memorable. Liz Kim, one of the LCA members, was also satisfied with the positive outcome of the event.

On November 6th, Grace and Andrea from Lap Chee Global Diversity Team held the long expected Pride Month Book Club, during which they talked about the world-famous Taiwanese le***an writer Qiu Miaojin. They introduced Qiu Miaojin as an important q***r icon with a unique style of writing that appeals to everyone. The taboo of homosexual love, the atmosphere of university life, the solitude of staying up late at night, all that was well depicted by Qiu, were eloquently discussed by the participants. They drew from their personal experience to understand the construction of heteronormativity and the importance of q***rness in every level of our life. They concluded this book club with a short creative writing session on their own late night routine and a group picture with a pride pins on their chest, proudly showing the world the value of diversity.

We have good news for you! Are you ready?

We are so pleased to announce that our signature event, the Lap-Chee High Table Dinner, will be resumed in November! An Admission Ceremony will simultaneously be held where all newcomers will be presented with green (for undergraduate) or black (for postgraduate) gowns, symbolizing that you are admitted to Lap-Chee College and formally become a Lap-Cheer.

Global Diversity _ DIY Mixology 2.0
Conversations about diversity are key to bridging the gap to a more inclusive community. What better way to start a dialogue than to do it with DIY cocktails and mocktails by your side? On 24th April, the Global Diversity team organized the DIY mixology 2.0, where JCSV3 students not only had the opportunity to learn how to mix a cocktail/mocktail or two, but they also were given the platform to lead the conversation regarding gender stereotypes, LGBTQ+ issues, and dating culture in their countries. By the end of the night, the participants not only learnt cocktail recipes, but also gained knowledge about the diverse culture, traditions and perspectives surrounding them through the with the hearty, fruitful discussion they had with their fellow participating mixologist!

The Residence-based Academic Advising System, RAAS, hosted its last event of the semester, “RAASHow: Surviving UG” on the 25th of April.

Their aim is to quell the concerns of undergraduates, such as feeling lost navigating the daunting and unfamiliar university experience, being plagued by the stress of juggling coursework with extracurriculars whilst still planning for internships, exchange, or post-grad, and so on.
