4 No. 134 4th November 1998 CUHK Newsletter 宣布事項 ANNOUNCEMENTS 總務處重組及改名 總務處最近兩年開展了一連串業務重組措施，提倡新 的管理哲學和組織架構，革新工作流程，最終既能精簡人 手，又能節約經費，並且提高了服務效率和質素。為配合 新的服務概念及職責，該處於十月一日起改名為財務處， 總務長的職銜亦待大學條例修改後，改為財務長，相關的 英文名稱則維持不變（詳情請參閱英文版第二及三頁的介 紹）。 校園交通 University Traffic and Parking Regulations 新學年伊始，校園交通繁忙情況再現。較諸校外，校園路面衍生之意外顯著為少，惟 傷亡代價則可能較高。 在校園駕車同人務須留意現行之《大學交通及泊車規則》，其權限悉如本港法例所 容，概無厚薄；校園道路使用者擁有之權利，亦與校外人士無異，是以本組每接獲投訴 時，有責依法辦理，無論事故為不小心駕駛或漠視過馬路守則，倘引致傷亡時，須將案件 移交警方追究。借此籲請駕車者及行人：苟能略為小心及稍加忍讓，大學校園實為本港最 安全之所。 最近施行之泊車收費制度，已可紓緩校園泊車苦況。至此，非交通要道之違例泊車 尚可酌情容忍。惟保安組主任仍須確保校巴運行路線暢通無阻，凡違例停泊之車輛將遭扣 押。 《大學交通及泊車規則》已於校園各入口處展示，並刊載於職員手冊及學生手冊，以 便參閱，道路使用者宜細讀有關條款。 保安組主任 From the Security Officer: Now that the new academic year for 1998—99 has started, campus life is turning vibrant with cars and commuters again. Although the incidence of traffic accidents on campus is phenomenally lower than that outside, costs in casualty terms may be higher. Staff members who drive on campus must be aware that the University Traffic and Parking Regulations being in force carry no more and no less than the laws would allow. Within the University, drivers and commuters are subject to the same privileges and rights as any other road users may have outside. The University is therefore obliged by law to deal with cases such as careless driving and jay walking upon receipt of complaint, and i f necessary may refer them to the police for further investigation as when injury is involved. May I therefore appeal to drivers and pedestrians alike: with a little extra care and patience, we can easily turn this campus into the safest place in Hong Kong. The recently introduced fee-charging system has somewhat alleviated our congested parking conditions on campus and, in this respect, we are able to tolerate irregular parking off main thoroughfares only. The Security Officer is duty bound to ensure that University bus routes are free from obstructions and action w i ll be taken against illegal parking in areas where warning signs are clearly erected. For those who are new to the environment, the University Traffic and Parking Regulations are conspicuously posted at all entrances to the campus and published in both staff and student handbooks of the University and its colleges. It is the duty of all road users to familiarize themselves with the laws and regulations. ULS Online Lectures The University Library System (ULS) has a new addition to its electronic resources. Online Lectures can now be accessed direct through its homepage ( http://www.lib.cuhk.edu.hk/eow or http://www.dcreation.com/hkcu/v4/oL1.htm ). Online Lectures is the latest addition to a digital library named 'Eye on the World' which collects quality Internet resources on various areas of general interest to the University community. Beginning with News Online, it now includes Publishers Online, Journal Online, Bookstores Online, and Online Lectures. Online lectures are often interactive in approach, making use of the multimedia educational resources available on the worldwide web and providing students with channels to raise questions and submit assignments online. A few distinctive websites are selected to give users a more comprehensive and systematic overview of the courses available worldwide. More links w i ll be added. Suggestions for new sites are most welcome. Enquiries and suggestions can be directed to Mrs. Rita Wong, head of Systems and Communications Division of the ULS (E-mail: rita-wong@cuhk.edu.hk, or tel: 2609 7316). 公積金計劃投資成績 Investment Returns of Staff Superannuation Schemes 財務處公布公積金計劃內各項投資基金於一九九八年 九月及累積至該月的回報如下︰ From the Bursary: The monthly and cumulative returns for September 1998 in the Designated Investment Funds of the 1995 Scheme and 1983 Scheme are as follows: —九九八年九月 September 1998 基 金 Fund 1995 計劃 1995 Scheme 1983 計劃 1983 Scheme 指摽回報 Benchmark Return (未經審核數據 unaudited) 增長 Growth 1.96% 1.58% 4.72% 平衡 Balanced 2.42% 2.27% 4.50% 穩定 Stable 2.97% 2.06% 4.31% 港元銀行存款 HKD Bank Deposit 0.80% (年息 Annualized 9.75%) 0.74% (年息 Annualized 8.97%) 0.59% (年息 Annualized 7.18%) 美元銀行存款 USD Bank Deposit* 0.40% (年息 Annualized 5.16%) 0.41% (年息 Annualized 5.22%) — —九九八年七月—日至九月三十日 1st July to 30th September 1998 基 金 Fund 1995 計劃 1995 Scheme 1983 計劃 1983 Scheme 指摽回報 Benchmark Return (未經審核數據 unaudited) 增長 Growth - 6 . 2 8% -1.40% -8.44% 平衡 Balanced -3.80% -4.47% -5.03% 穩定 Stable 1.81% 1.45% 1.95% 港元銀行存款 HKD Bank Deposit 2.35% (年息 Annualized 9.32%) 2.35% (年息 Annualized 9.32%) 2.22% (年息 Annualized 8.81%) 美元銀行存款 USD Bank Deposit* 0.40% (年息 Annualized 5.16%) 0.41% (年息 Annualized 5.22%) — * 一 九 九 八 年 九 月 一 日 開 始 投資 Launched with effect from 1st September 1998 學生及教職員健身課程 體育部主持的「身心康泰在中大」活動之學生及教職員健身課程，將於本年十二月至 明年四月舉行，為員生介紹健身器材的正確使用方法，以及重量訓練的概念與方法。修畢課 程的學員可獲發「大學健身室使用證」乙張。由本年九月一日開始，凡未持有「大學健身室 使用證」者皆不准使用大學健身室，以確保使用者的安全並減少健身室器材損壞的機會。 課程編號 日期 時 對象 F1/98* 30.11.98-11.12.98 (逢一、三、五） 下午五時半至七時半 教職員及學生 5/98 4.12.98 (星期五） 下午五時半至七時半 教職員 6/98 15.12.98 (星期二） 下午四時至六時 學生 7/98 18.12.98 (星期五） 上午十時至中午十二時 學生 1/99 8.1.99 (星期五） 下午五時半至七時半 教職員 2/99 4.2.99 (星期四） 下午五時半至七時半 學生 3/99 3.3.99 (星期三） 下午六時半至八時半 學生 4/99 9.4.99 (星期五） 下午五時半至七時半 教職員 上課地點：大學健身室 名額： 每班二十人，按報名先後錄取。 費用： 港幣十元 報名： 親臨大學體育中心收借處辦理，並繳交費用及近照（兩吋乘兩吋半）乙張。 查詢請致電阮伯仁先生，電話二六零九六九八五或二六零九六零九七。 中大通訊 CUHK NEWSLETTER 網址 website http://www.cuhk.edu.hk/puo/ 1. 本刊逢四日及十九日出版。 2. 來函或投稿請寄沙田香港中文大學秘書處出版事務處《中大通訊》 編輯部（電話 2609 8584 ，圖文傳真 2603 6864 ，電子郵遞 pub2@uab.msmail.cuhk.edu.hk ) 。 3. 投稿者須附真實姓名、地址及聯絡電話，文章則可用筆名發表。 4. 編輯有權刪改及決定是否刊登來稿，不欲稿件被刪者請預先聲明。 5. 本刊所載文章只反映作者之觀點和意見，並不代表校方或本刊立場。 6. 所有內容未經編者書面准許，不得轉載。 7. 本刊每期發行三千八百份，免費供校內教職員索閱，部分郵寄本地教 育機構及與大學有關人士。私人索閱，請致函本刊查詢。 1.
