The Constituent Colleges 29 Part 1 C.W. Chu College Established in 2007, C.W. Chu College aims to provide a holistic education to students through the experience of college life. It will cultivate among students a commitment to personal responsibility and integrity, as well as the spirit of self-help and helping others, advocated and personally practised by the late Dr. C.W. Chu and encapsulated in the College motto ‘ Cultus et Beneficentia ’. The College hopes to provide a learning experience that will enrich students’ lives, prepare them for making contributions to society, and thereby nurture talents for the world. Situated at Residence Lane between Wu Yee Sun College and Lee Woo Sing College, the College will accommodate 300 students on a fully residential and communal dining basis, and is expected to operate by 2012. Prof. Kenneth Young, currently Pro-Vice-Chancellor and Professor of Physics at CUHK, was named in April 2010 as the Master-Designate of C.W. Chu College. Wu Yee Sun College The College was established in 2007 with very generous support from the Wu Yee Sun Charitable Foundation Ltd. The motto of the College is ‘Scholarship and Perseverance’. In the College’s intimate and dynamic learning atmosphere, students will develop the drive for entrepreneurship: a passion for innovation and creativity, and acumen in pursuing new projects and ideas, not just for personal gain but for the common good. Entrepreneurship with social responsibility and environmental awareness is a central focus of the College. Through its diverse programmes of general education, college student life, and cultural and overseas exchanges, the College aims to broaden students’ horizons (scholarship), and encourage them to forge ahead (perseverance) in making contributions to the society and leading a productive and rewarding life.
