VISIT FROM UNIVERSITY OF AUCKLAND
Mr Peter Papagiannis, Alumni Relations Manager and Mr Brent Hemi, Senior Events Planner at the University of Auckland visited The Hang Seng University of Hong Kong (HSUHK) on 29 June 2023 (Thursday) and were welcomed and greeted by Dr Tom Fong, Vice-President (Organisational Development), Ms Antonia Yeung, Associate Vice-President (Development and Campus Services), Ms Elisa Chan, Director of Advancement and Alumni Affairs, and Ms Betty To, Manager of Advancement and Alumni Affairs Office.
The representatives from HSUHK gave the guests a general view of the development of HSUHK and introduced its major alumni engagement initiatives and future development. Mr Papagiannis and Mr Hemi also shared their experience of engaging alumni. The fruitful exchange of views was believed to be very inspirational to both parties.
The meeting was followed by a campus tour. The guests visited the TV Studio of the School of Communication and had a taste of being a news reporter. They also visited the HSUHK Jockey Club Residential Colleges and experienced the hall life of students. The final stop was the Lee Shau Kee Complex, where the indoor swimming pool, sports hall and the rooftop organic farm were shown to the guests.
Souvenirs were presented to the guests and the HSUHK representatives also received creative souvenirs from them. It was a great pleasure to have the visit from colleagues of other educational institutes who also work on engaging alumni. The Advancement and Alumni Affairs Office looks forward to exploring further collaborations with the alumni team of University of Auckland in the future.
