CW Chu College The Chinese University of Hong Kong eNewsletter

As the University is still adopting a firm public health policy for prevention and control of COVID-19 on campus, the College Photo Day 2021, originally scheduled for early March, was cancelled.

The following alternative arrangements were made for the College Graduating Class of 2021 to take photos in graduation gowns:

The period of graduation gown set rental service was extended, starting from 19 February to 21 April 2021.
A backdrop designed by the Sixth Executive Committee of the Residents' Association was set up in the College Piazza and a set of specially made hand-held props placed next to the backdrop from 5 March to 11 April 2021. Members of the graduating class could come to take individual photos.

Due to strict implementation of the no-visitor policy in the College hostel area, students who had registered to borrow a graduation gown set were advised to collect it from the College Office at designated timeslots. Graduating students were also reminded to follow closely the social distancing guideline and to avoid mass gathering when taking photos on College campus. All photo-taking props were sanitised on a daily basis.
