The Constituent Colleges 31 Part 1 S.H. Ho College provides a platform for students to strive to achieve their dreams, and provides support along the way. The College draws its motto, ‘Culture, Morals, Devotion and Trustworthiness’, from The Analects of Confucius , as these qualities are vital in nurturing prominent leaders who serve the community. Sitting at the heart of CUHK, the College campus is located on University Avenue. It is within easy walking distance of the University Station. The two student hostels, Ho Tim Hall and Lee Quo Wei Hall—each comprising 300 hostel places, music room, fitness room, play room and grass field—are together home to 600 students. To enable students to experience different cultures, acquire language skills and explore their own identities, S.H. Ho College offers a variety of overseas experience programmes. The College strives to achieve the goal that above 80% of its students have overseas experiences. This will be achieved by means of exchange programmes, summer study abroad programmes, summer language study programmes, cultural visits and service-learning. Prof. Samuel S.M. Sun, a renowned international expert in agricultural biotechnology, was appointed as the Master of S.H. Ho College in 2009.
