They also need to have a genuine concern for the well-being of the territory and a desire to serve the community. These qualities cannot be taught through the formal curriculum,and hence the college has always emphasized the importance of general and non-formal education in the nurturing of all-rounded students. 'I hope all members of the college will draw on the rich tradition built up over the past 50 years to attain in the next 50 years achievements even more deserving of celebration, ‘ Prof. Lee said.
