ating class of 570 undergraduates. While they study for their final examinations and put the finishing touches to their theses, they must also keep future career prospects firmly in mind.

According to all indicators, the career oppo前u­ nities for ou『 graduatesare very promising’”says Mr Brian Cheng, Student Counsellor at HKUST

s Stu-dent Affairs Office.

Once the recruitment season comes to an end in June we will have fuller informa

-tion, but already in the Department of Accounting, 80% of its graduating students have accepted job offers from accounting firms.’,

Students from other academic disciplines have also been snapped up by the accounting profession. Economics students Rosanna Cheung. and Timothy Wong both have offers from m刮oraccounting firms, Rosanna from G『antThornton Byrne, and Timothy from Price Waterhouse.

Meanwhile finance graduate Geeta Hemrajani, who completed her studies at HKUST early, has already started work as a financial analyst in Salomon Brothers HK Ltd., a world-renowned investment firm.

I applied to quite a few companies, and eventually out of the three job offers that I received I chose this company because they seemed to be more enthusi”

astic than the others. I liked the atmosphere here’” she says.

Not all graduates will be entering the business world. Accounting student Clement Har will be study-ing for a PhD in Accounting at the Wharton Business School of the University of Pennsylvania this autumn. He was offered scholarships to this school as well as to the Unive『sity of California at Berkeley, and the University of British Columbia. Asked for the secret of his success Clement is modest. “It's mainly help from the faculty. Without their recommendation it would not have been so easy’”he says.

In general terms what will HKUST

s graduates be doing?“Business graduates will be looking at the business sector and most engineering graduates will become enginee時, althoughsome of them might join the business sector if an oppo付unity exists there’” says Mr Cheng.

About one-third of the science graduates will be teaching. Some will pursue re”

search in major firms or te此iary institutions, and others may join the business sector in sales and marketing. Environmental protection is becoming a promising career for science students too.’,

And what is it that makes our students special?

Our students showed real entrepreneurial spirit by coming here’”says Prof. Lee.“Many of them gave up the chance of studying at Hong Kong

their work brings them. Whether it be at work, at play,。『 instudy, strong bonds have formed - the 『esult of the friendship

and warmth that they feel for each other.

MANY Hl<UST RESIDENTS might not know the name

Ping Kuen Lee. He is better known as Felix, the man to call when they need help.

l try to do my best to satisfy needs. My m司orobjective is to create a better living environment and to make residents as comfortable as possi-ble’”he says. This he does with the help of his crew. Yet Felix is reluctant to see himself as their supervisor.

Estates management work requires teamwo阱,

and I believe we implement this concept effectively,'’he says. “We are a great team - in fact we may be the best in EMO!”he adds laughing.

Felix, who has an Estates Management degree as well as a higher certificate in Civil Engineering, has been with the University for three years. Later this year he plans to sit for an exam and if successful, his goal of becoming a Chartered

Surveyor will be achieved. Meanwhile, when not at work, he is

kept very busy with his four-month-old daughter, Wan Yi, as well as swimming, hiking and taking tennis lessons from colleague Rick Ho.

OWNING A BIG HOUSE with a small rose garden is a long-range goal for

Rick Ho. But his sho叫- rangeone of

at-taining his Housing Management Certifi

-cate is nearly in sight - he finishes the three-year course the 『niddleof next year.

It can

t be easy for a newlywed of six months to put in a long day

s work taking

care of the needs of the residents in the Phase II apa前mentsand

houses as well as Block C in the Junior Staff Quarters and then to spend four nights a week at night school. Often he doesn't get

home until ten. However, Rick enjoys his work and the company of his co-workers. "Everyone here is very nice. It's a g『eat atmosphere in which to work, and we have plenty of fun,'’he says.

Rickwo『kshard, but he certainly knows how to relax. He enjoys listening to music as well as playing (and teaching his colleagues) tennis and swimming in whatever free time he manages to find.

"I Lll<E TO TAl<E CARE OF PEOPLE,’,and that is

exactly what Eunice Au does when, like Rick, she sees to the needs of residents in the Phase II apa前mentsand houses, as well as Block C of the Junior Staff Quarters. Helping new tenants to settle in

;

overseeing cleaning

;

and liaising with Security, Maintenance and the Building Services Section are just a few

examples of how she spends her busy

day. Sometimes though, Eunice is called upon to o何eranother service that is not in

he川ob description. “When people lock

themselves o叭, the problem is soon

solved when we get the Sect』『itySection to help. However, if that person is a child, then we also have to dry some tears,'’she

smiles. Half-way through six years of pa肘,timestudy, Eunice would one day like to be a surveyor.

I love anything to do with people and prope叫y’” she laughs.

’,DO NOT DISTURB US’,is what the residents in the

Phase I Towers and Junior Staff Quarters, Blocks A and B tell

Johnson Lei who looks after their needs.

We do our best to follow these instruc -tions’”he says. However, it is not always

easy, especially when he has to arrange

for workers to fix defects.

Although we have never had any trouble, and there is no cause for worry, some people don

t want to leave their key with us.

How does

he get around the problem? “We persuade them with our

since『ityand patience’”he replies.

When Johnson is not at work keeping the peace, he spends

his time wo『king towards his Higher Certificate in Housing Management. When he completes this course, he would like to continue his studies. And where would he choose to do this?

Right here’” he says

,“

at this University." And the course?

Business and Management’”he replies.

ONE OF THE PERl<S ofwo『kinghere is that you can learn

to swim. At least you can if you are as fortunate in you 『 col­

leagues as Maria Lui. She was taughtto swim by Felix and Rick.

、\

Like Johnson, Maria looks after the needs of residents in Phase I Towers as well as Junior Staff Quarters, Blocks A and 曰“I used to work in the private sector, but this is much mo『esatisfying’”

she says. “There is less of a routine, the residents are nicer and I am able to build up a good relationship with them.’,

Maria is studying for her Higher Certificate in Valuation and Housing Management, and one day she would like to become a

surveyo『.This might involve a move to England to do a degree in Housing Management.

Reading University is famous for this course,'’she says. "I hope that I can manage it, and should do so with the suppo付 ofmy family.

group of postgraduate students. This year HKUST sees another

significant milestone - the graduation of its first class of un

-dergraduates. And to help these graduating students keep in

touch with their alma mater, work is already under way to

establish HKUST

s very own alumni association.

Our aim in initiating this association is to maintain

commu-nication between graduates and the University and to

co-ordinate students after graduation,'’ says third司year physics

student Roger Yu Yiu Keung, who is Chai 『manof the Organising

Committee for the Alumni Association.

Eventually the association·

will join forces with the postgraduate alumni association, which

was formed last year, and we expect to be fully established in

June or July of this year.’,

In the meantime the Organising Committee, which has

twenty-five members, is busy applying to the Government to

register the association. They are also involved in drafting a

constitution for the association, and they have regular meetings

to decide on such issues as membership structure and basic

definitions of the scope of the association.

The first activity which the association is planning for its

membe『S is a graduating dinner which will be held in June.

Graduating students will also be given a bookl訓, written by

students with some faculty contributions, as well as a souvenir

calendar showing scenes from around the campus. Eventually

they hope to produce an annual newsletter which will be posted

to all alumni who leave an address.

Organising all these things has taken a great deal of time

and has been a lot of hard wo『k.We have enjoyed doing it, but

for me it has been a real test of my time management skills’”says

Roger, who sits his finals this month.

And where will Roger be this time next year?“I am looking

for a post related to scientific sales and ma『keting," he says.

A subunit of the Office of Laboratory Services, the

Steve Jacobson. He arrived here in

November 1993 f『omNorthwestern University, where he headed

a shop of the same type.

Since childhood Steve has always enjoyed making things,

whether in wo品, metal, or plastic. While in college studying

biology, he also wanted to learn to weld, and found that the

sculpture teacher was the only person on campus who could

teach this skill.

Next thing I knew, I was a sculpture major’”

Steve says, still somewhat surprised.

After graduation I built a

saw『nillfor a friend in Oregon, and realized that if I was going to

keep making the things I wanted to make, I had to learn

machining. I returned to Chicago, got a job in a machine shop,

some manual experience first. Without that it is hard for them to

know what to tell the machine to do. You need to have a feel for

the sequence of events when making something. It

s like baking

cakes. You can

t bake the cake, then take it out of the oven and

add the eggs afterwards.”

One of the problems he has faced in se削ngup the Work”

shop is the difficulty in obtaining hi-tech or rare materials here.

Other than that, Stephen

s least favourite task is having to finish

jobs that other people have started.

waters. However, 'well-cooked

may translate into over-cooked. The biological contaminants can cause health problems as-sociated w.ith the digestive tract such as vomiting and diarrhoea or hepatitis.

“Othe『 pollution-related problems with fish are metals, pesticides, and O『ganicsolvents. The metals are a cumulative problem which is why some health expe前srecommend NOT eating fish from polluted waters on a regular basis. Pesticides and organic solvents are also chronic type health risk problems unless the concentrations are very high in which case the fish would probably have an unpalatable taste associated with the pesticide or solvent. Although I haven

Tai Ji Quan - An Invitation

by Kimberly Chang

n

ai Ji Quan is a Chinese

ma付ial

art based on the

philosophy of yin and yang. Like its close ally Qi Gong, Tai

Ji aims at improving health by manipulating the body

S

intrinsic energy (qi) with the mind. The regular practice of

Tai Ji provides a method for integrating mind and body through a process of learning bala『iced, relaxed postures

which flow ceaselessly from one to another in a pre-ar

-ranged series. Each posture has not only a self-defense

application, but has been designed (through centuries of

refinement) to place the body in pe付ectalignment, eliminat

-ing energy blockages and encouraging the development of

balance and relaxation. If executed correctly, virtually every

joint and muscle in the body will receive beneficial exercise.

The smooth transitions that connect one posture to another

also demonstrate the theme of change which unde『liesTai

Ji philosophy and practice.

Although beautiful to watch, Tai Ji Quan is not a

pe吋ormancea叫﹔ it is a form of physical and mental

self-cultivation for the person who is doing it. As one master

said:“Tai Ji Quan can be compared to a window with the curtains drawn. The onlooker cannot judge what is inside by

looking through the window because the cu 『tainsprevent a

clear view. Likewise, one cannot judge Tai Ji Quan by its appearance. One person may say it

s a form of healthful

exercise, another a martial a付, andso on. To understand Tai Ji Quan by only watching the outer movements is like

trying to look inside a room through drawn curtains. One must go into the room to see clea『ly.”

Here at HKUST, we are fortunate to have the experi

-enced instruction of Master Sin Man-Ho, a long-time

practioner and promoter of the Chinese martial arts in Hong Kong. Classes meet on Wednesday and F『idayevenings from 5:30to 6:30 p.m. in Rm. LG1027 of the Spo付SHall.We
