Catering to Individual Needs in Difficult Times: the Beauty of Being Small
|
As the world is still battling the COVID-19 pandemic, we are all navigating the new normal amid uncertainties. The College's top priority is always the health and safety of all students and staff. Therefore, we are more dedicated than ever to maintaining a hygienic and safe campus environment. During this time of stress and anxiety, we have also been working tirelessly to render assistance to ease anxieties brought about by the disruptions of the learning, living and working environment. This has been one of our missions as a small College since our founding—to foster an intimate College community and develop close relationships with our students.

Student Honour Code Committee

As one of the distinctive features of our College, the Student Honour Code guides our students to be aware of their actions, and to learn to take responsibility for what they do in the College community. The Student Honour Code Committee (SHCC) is elected to manage the Honour Code and and to deal with any behaviour that is inconsistent with it, promoting the spirit of self-governance, honesty, mutual respect and support among College community.
