The dreary cold afternoon of 27 January 2018 could not keep away some 200 people who converged on the open piazza facing the Choh-Ming Li Basic Medical Sciences Building and the University Science Centre on CUHK campus for the Medical Alumni Homecoming Day.

Professor Francis CHAN, Dean of CUHK Medicine, kicked off the ceremony with his welcome message, followed by a speech by Dr Wing Tai SIU, Convener of the “CU Medical Alumni Buddy Programme” and Professor Enders NG, Associate Dean (Alumni Affairs), delivered a vote of thanks.

During the pledging ceremony, Professor Francis CHAN, Professor Enders NG, Professor Yun Kwok WING, Associate Dean (Student Affairs) and the Buddy Group mentors pulled the bar of a gimmick prop to light up the words “CU Medicine” to symbolise the Faculty’s determination to remain united, bright and brilliant.
