In Jubilation for the Golden Jubilee 5 Embrace our Culture Empower our Future Prof. Joseph J.Y. Sung Vice-Chancellor ‘The 50th Anniversary will allow us the opportunity to share, in gratitude and gladness, our achievements with the community at large. It will also be an occasion for the Chinese University to reiterate its core values and its mission, and to bring to the community’s full view, the University’s humanistic spirit which is its guiding light since the earliest days, its unique collegiate system, and its practical and functional General Education programmes. We shall show to the general public what superior minds our campus has nurtured, and what ingenious results they have wrought through years of intensive intellectual endeavours. Their achievements have expanded the frontiers of learning and research in many directions. Furthermore, many of our teachers and students, in successive generations, have left their distinguished and indelible marks on regional, national and even international history. It is our intention, and our resolve, to demonstrate how, in a global village where no man is an island entire of himself, the teachers and students of CUHK will shoulder their responsibilities as citizens of the world when the call of benevolent humanism beckons. We will show to the world how the CUHK community has extended the scope of its service, and how the application of the results of its research has gone way beyond the campus to the surrounding regions, the nation, and the rest of the world, for the benefit of the earth and all mankind.’
