Distribution of Desserts to Residents
The Sixth Executive Committee, Cornucopia, distributed their home-made desserts, Grass Jelly with Taro Balls, to College residents on the evening of 3 May 2021. To avoid mass gathering, the desserts were delivered to each resident's room by the Committee members. The residents were able to enjoy a ‘sweet’ escape from gruelling preparations for their final exams. |

The Student Honour Code Committee (SHCC) is elected to manage the Honour Code and to deal with any behaviour that is inconsistent with it, promoting the spirit of self-governance, honesty, mutual respect and support within the College community.
