  • A11-2 Descriptions of Colleges
    Colleges Chung Chi College College Motto: In Pursuit of Excellence Chung Chi College was founded in 1951 by the Protestant Churches in Hong Kong to fill the need for a local institution of higher learning that would be both Chinese and Christian. It is characterized by an emphasis on liberal arts education and whole-person development. Weiyuan Lake, the Chinese name of Lake Ad Excellentiam, literally meaning ‘not complete’, not only describes the shape of the lake but is a clever footnote to the College motto ‘In Pursuit of Excellence’. The double-storey A-frame Chung Chi Tang, built in 1972, serves as a student recreation centre and canteen. The College Chapel, built in 1961, is situated half way up the hill along Chung Chi Road. Its colourful blocks of granite were indigenous and excavated while developing the College campus. New Asia College College Motto: Sincerity and Intelligence New Asia College was founded in 1949 by a group of scholars from mainland China headed by Prof. Ch’ien Mu, who aimed at preserving traditional Chinese culture and balancing it with Western learning so that students might understand their cultural heritage while being able to cope with the challenges of the modern world. The Pavilion of Harmony illustrates the idea of the ‘union of man and nature’ advocated by Prof. Ch’ien Mu. Sitting by the pond, one may feel to be an integral part of nature. The bronze Statue of Confucius faces north towards the hometown of Confucius in Shandong province. At the back of the statue is a bamboo stick engraved with Confucius’ teaching ideal, ‘ever learning, and never tired of teaching’.
