Annual Report 2005–06

引言 Introduction Campus Development Since its establishment more than four decades ago, the University has grown continuously. Much to our delight, however, its campus has become greener during the process. We are proud of this tradition, and shall continue to preserve our beautiful campus as we grow and develop. New facilities, to the extent that they are needed, are built in such a way that the environmental ambience of the campus is sustainable. In early 2006, our energy-saving efforts won us a gold medal in the first Hong Kong Energy Efficiency Awards organized by the government. During the year, we set up a Steering Committee on Campus Master Planning. Comprising scholars, experts and professional consultants, the committee is principally tasked to draft a blueprint for the University’s campus development for the next 15 to 20 years. We also put in place a strict tree-preservation policy, the implementation of which is monitored by our Campus Landscaping Enhancement Committee. I have every confidence in the University community’s determination to protect our lush and beautiful campus, which we all hold dear. Conclusion The Annual Report gives us an opportunity to reflect on the results of our past endeavours so that we can plan better for the future. The Chinese University has done itself proud in 2005-06, thanks to the joint efforts of all its members. To my colleagues and to our alumni community in particular, I am deeply grateful. For over 40 years, The Chinese University has built upon its unique history and heritage, adding strength to strength, and eventually establishing for itself its rightful place among important seats of learning in the Asia-Pacific. We shall continue to forge ahead in the year to come and aim for even greater progress. Lawrence J.
