    Description:

    In honour of »Ê¹ÚÌåÓý’s 175th anniversary, the university and the Hong Kong Branch of the »Ê¹ÚÌåÓý’s University Alumni Association are hosting a unique evening of extraordinary »Ê¹ÚÌåÓý’s connections in Hong Kong.

    This celebration, hosted in Hong Kong, will be a hallmark event for a remarkable year of 175th anniversary events. It will celebrate »Ê¹ÚÌåÓý’s strong ties with the Asia-Pacific region, the students who come to »Ê¹ÚÌåÓý’s from the region, and the alumni who live and work there.

    In the afternoon, alumni, students, family and friends are invited to participate in a celebration modelled after a convocation ceremony. Alumni will be honoured participants, and there will be a presentation of an honorary degree to long-time »Ê¹ÚÌåÓý’s volunteer and retired High Court Judge Kin Kee Pang, Arts’70.  This will be the first honorary degree to be conferred by »Ê¹ÚÌåÓý’s outside of Canada.

    In the evening, »Ê¹ÚÌåÓý's Professor Emeritus and Nobel Laureate Dr. Art McDonald will be the keynote speaker at a gala dinner.
