Giving Opportunities
CW Chu College is a small College, with just around 300 students. It offers residential accommodation for all its students for four years of their undergraduate studies. With some 40 teachers drawn from different disciplines, CW Chu College will provide a rare opportunity to cultivate the intellectual and social development of students for their own benefit and for the benefit of the communities they will serve.
The vision is a community of budding scholars gathered in convivial surroundings conducive to learning, where students from diverse backgrounds will mix, share and grow. Intellectual development will be coupled with an accent on personal responsibility and integrity, and a spirit of service to others—values which the late Dr CW CHU exemplified, and which are encapsulated in our motto Cultus et Beneficentia.
As a young College with its first cohort of students in September 2012, much needs to be done: to design and continuously enhance the educational and pastoral programmes, as well as social and exchange activities for students—and not least to raise funds and garner the resources that will be necessary if we are to turn the vision into success.
I call upon those who share in this vision to join in the task of bringing the College to fruition.
