MC WELCOME 院長序言

You may be reading this because you are considering applying for a place at CUHK (good choice!) or because you have already won a place – in which case congratulations on a great personal achievement. Either way, you will want to make the most of it, and Morningside is a college that can help you do that. It offers much more than just its excellent facilities. Morningside is a residential community of students, Fellows and Tutors that’s intimate enough for you to get to know everyone there and has the resources and tradition to help you do that. It’s particularly international and it’s interdisciplinary, so that you can be inspired by other cultures and take in fresh ideas while excelling at your own discipline. And the more you learn and develop the more you, in your turn, will inform and inspire others while building friendships, and networks, that will enrich your university experience while you’re here, and stay with you all your life. We look forward to welcoming you into our community.

MC EXPERIENCE 晨興生活

“Morningsiders”, as our students call themselves, value ideas, diversity, creativity, individuality, and civic responsibility.

The Morningside student body is one of the most diverse student bodies at the University, with residents from over 15 countries and regions.

As a Morningsider, you will be invited to join the Master at the Master’s Lodge for social events and discussion. You will have opportunities to chat with distinguished visitors to the College – historians, astrophysicists, novelists, and more. We also encourage our students to leave the College and enjoy the many cultural activities on offer throughout Hong Kong. Our Exploring Hong Kong’s Cultural Resources Programme provides each Morningside student with funding to attend concerts, plays, film festivals, and art exhibits. When you are ready to leave Hong Kong, Morningside will offer you exchange opportunities and ensure that financial support is available to make study abroad possible.

If you are an athlete, you might consider joining the College Rowing Team, the Football Club, or participate in one or more of the sports activities – horseback riding, archery, bowling – organized by our Physical Education instructor.

書院學生自稱「晨興人」，他們思想豐富、創造力強、是有個性 與具公民責任感的學生。 晨興人來自超過十五個國家和地區，在中大可謂最多元化。作為晨興的 一份子，你會受邀到院長宿舍與院長共聚與討論，並有機會與到訪的歷史 學家、天文學家、小說家等傑出學人聊天。我們亦鼓勵學生離開舍堂，踴躍 參加本地的文化活動。書院舉辦的「香港文化資源探索計劃」，乃資助 晨興學生出席音樂會、戲劇、電影節及藝術展等活動而設的。晨興提供 許多學術交流機會，讓你可暫別香港，放眼世界，亦為此向你提供一定 的經濟援助。若你是個運動健將，你可考慮加入書院的划艇隊、足球 俱樂部，或者參加書院體育導師組織的騎馬、射箭、保齡等體育活動。

MC KNOWLEDGE 晨興智慧

WELCOME TO MORNINGSIDE

You aspire to be a concert pianist, but a degree in Business will pay the bills. Do you major in Music? Or follow your father into business?

A critically ill patient suffering from a highly communicable disease has just been brought in to the emergency room; you are the frontline emergency medic on duty. Do you delay treatment to scrub up and don protective gear, knowing that you could be putting the patient’s life in jeopardy? Or do you attend to the patient immediately and risk contracting the illness yourself? These are just two examples of the many dilemmas that Morningside students consider in the Freshman Seminar Current Dilemmas and their Histories. College Fellows introduce dilemmas and philosophical frameworks; Morningsiders discuss and debate in small group tutorials led by Junior Fellows.

Later, you will undertake a Service Learning Project – learn how a local animal rescue organization works, serve the elderly in China, tutor children in Nepal, or monitor food waste right here on campus.

「你有志成為一名鋼琴演奏家，但一張商科學士文憑能 保障生活。你選擇以音樂作為你的主修科目，還是步父親 後塵從商呢？」 「一名傳染病患者被帶入急診室。你是急診部當值醫生。你會 先洗擦消毒，並穿戴好防護裝備，令病人因此而延遲接受治療； 還是冒著受感染的風險馬上醫治病人呢？」這些只是晨興人在 新生研討課 「當今困境及其歷史 」上討論的多種困境中的 兩個例子。教授在課上介紹各種困境及哲學思考基礎概念；課後 他們在導師帶領的導修小組上進行研討和辯論。及後，你會參與 社區服務學習計劃， 學習「救助動物協會」組織的運作、服務 中國大陸長者、到尼泊爾給兒童上課、或監察校內浪費食物的 情況。無論你的未來發展如何，請將我們書院的理念 —— 博學、 進德、濟民 —— 融入你的社群服務工作中。
