Bulletin Number Five 1986

New University Secretary The University Council has appointed Mr. Jacob Leung, Acting Secretary of the University, as University Secretary from 1st January, 1987. Mr. Leung first joined the University as Assistant Secretary in the Personnel Section of the Secretariat in 1979 , became Senior Assistant Secretary in 1984 and Deputy Secretary two years later. He was made Acting Secretary in August 1986 when the former Secretary, Dr. Fong-ching Chen, took up the directorship of the Institute of Chinese Studies. Mr. Leung received the degree of BSocSc from the University of Hong Kong, and the degree of MDiv from the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, in Louisville, Kentucky, USA. During his stay in Kentucky, he also served as pastoral counsellor in the Hazelwood Hospital and Central State Hospital. After his return to Hong Kong, Mr. Leung undertook Christian ministry in the Hong Kong Baptist Church and part-time lecturing at the Hong Kong Baptist College. Subsequently, he had served as Hospital Secretary of Hong Kong Baptist Hospital and then Administrative Officer of Hong Kong Council of Social Service. (cont'd from p.4) occasion, because after almost a decade's effort, we are now finally able to award degree certificates to our first class of medical graduates. This is a combination of many years' hard work by members of the Medical Academic Advisory Committee (MAAC) and also colleagues of the Medical Faculty who are all here with us; this also marks a big step taken by the University towards professional education. May I ask all of you to join me in thanking the MAAC members and staff of the Medical Faculty, and also in extending our warmest congratulations to the medical graduates as well as other graduates here today. My colleagues and students, I would believe a university will always remain young and energetic, especially The Chinese University which has just passed its first two decades of existence not very long ago. Undoubtedly our University would yet have countless difficulties to overcome, countless milestones to pass by, and many more new worlds to discover. Surely The Chinese University will reach all its goals only if you can keep in mind its special mandate and if you can keep up confidence, drive and illuminable spirits, then, there certainly will be no limit to the things our University can achieve.
