Former HKBU Executive Committee Says Manifesto Was Shown to University Before Election and Amended as Requested

浸大前幹事會稱競選前曾將政綱予校方過目 並應要求修改

After the HKBU Students’ Union was disqualified by the university, the Joint Appeal Platform, formed by some former executive committee members, released a recording alleging that senior HKBU officials had “warned” students during a meeting. In its response to InMediaHK, the university did not deny the incident, saying only that complaints could be lodged through the university’s mechanisms. Dai Ka-ping, the resigned external vice-president of the Coeng Ming cabinet and a member of the Joint Appeal Platform, said on a radio programme that the cabinet had shown its manifesto to the university for review before the election and amended it at the university’s request, but the manifesto had now become evidence for the DQ.

浸大學生會被校方「DQ」,部分前幹事組成的「聯合上訴平台」發布一段錄音,指浸大高層在會面時「警告」學生,浸大校方回覆《獨媒》未有否認事件,僅稱可循校方機制提出投訴。已全體請辭的內閣「滄溟」外務副會長、「聯合上訴平台」成員戴嘉平在電台節目表示,內閣競選前曾將政綱予校方過目,並應要求作出修改,惟如今政綱卻成「DQ證據」。

Legitimacy of Roommate-Assignment Policy Questioned as Hall Committee Fails to Reach Consensus; Student Affairs Committee Never Approved It

分配室友政策正當性成疑 宿舍委員會未達共識 學生事務委員會從未批准

The university earlier announced a new hall policy under which roommates would be assigned to new hall residents from the next academic year, with local and non-local students paired where possible [1]. The policy reportedly was not approved at a Hall Committee meeting, nor discussed or approved by the Student Affairs Committee. A student representative criticised the university for bypassing the committee meetings. The Hall Committee discussed the policy at a meeting on 19 April. The agenda included “discussion of proposals concerning the hall communities of the University of Hong Kong”; one proposal was to have wardens and hall offices assign rooms, but there was no proposal concerning local and non-local students sharing rooms. Hall representatives who attended said that, while the agenda was being discussed, the warden of Starr Hall, Anskar Yu Hung Leung, incorrectly said that Starr Hall had requested local freshmen to share rooms with non-local students [2]. The committee subsequently began discussing pairing local and non-local students as roommates. Some attendees raised concerns about cultural conflicts and the workload for halls, but the director of student affairs did not address them. A hall representative who attended said most student hall representatives opposed implementing the policy and some wardens had reservations. However, the university took a hard line and did not accept the opposing views. Committee chair and Vice-President (Teaching) Ho Lap-yan eventually ended student representatives’ remarks and closed the discussion on the grounds that it had gone on too long. The members did not reach a consensus at the meeting. Yeung Ngou-wai, the undergraduate representative on the Hall Committee, told this newspaper that the committee had generally made decisions by consensus in the past and had no majority-vote mechanism. This newspaper is making inquiries with Starr Hall warden Anskar Yu Hung Leung about the meeting’s contents.

校方早前公佈宿舍新政策,將在下學年起為新宿生分配室友,並儘可能配對本地生及非本地生 [1]。據悉,該政策未獲宿舍委員會會議通過,亦未經學生事務委員會討論及批准,有學生代表批評校方架空委員會會議。 宿舍委員會曾於4月19日的會議中討論此政策,會議議程包括「討論有關香港大學舍堂社群之建議」,其中一項建議為「改由舍監和舍堂辦公室分配房間」,但並無有關本地生與非本地生合宿之建議。當日與會之舍堂代表透露,討論該議程時,施德堂舍監梁如鴻誤指施德堂要求本地新生與非本地生合宿 [2],隨後委員開始討論配對本地生及非本地生為室友,有與會人士關注文化衝突及舍堂工作量,但學生事務長避而不談。有與會舍堂代表指,大部分宿生代表均反對實施該政策,亦有舍監持保留態度,但校方態度強硬,未有接納反對意見,最終委員會主席兼副校長(教學)何立仁以討論過長為由,終止學生代表的發言並結束討論,會議中成員並未達成共識。宿舍委員會本科生代表楊翺維向本報表示,宿舍委員會過往會議多以共識作決策,沒有多數票決機制。本報正就會議內容向施德堂舍監梁如鴻查詢。

HKBU faculty member tells Students’ Union: “If you punch me, I will definitely kick you back”

浸大教員向學生會稱「你打我一拳,我一定踢返你一腳」

Representatives of Hong Kong Baptist University met with the Students’ Union executive committee last month and disciplined its members, saying that descriptions of past events in its manifesto and other materials were “not in line with society’s standards and values”. The executive committee subsequently resigned, criticising the university’s handling of the matter as lacking procedural justice. The Joint Appeal Platform, formed by some former executive committee members, released a recording on Friday of the meeting with the university. It said a senior HKBU official told the students at the time: “To say a little more about my personal feelings here, you can engage in many forms of protest, but remember one thing: if you punch me, I will definitely kick you back. If this continues, the Students’ Union will suffer badly; of course, I will suffer badly too.”

浸會大學校方代表上月與學生會幹事會會面,指由於其政綱等資料對過去事件的描述「不符合社會的標準和價值觀」,對他們作出紀律處分。幹事會事後請辭,批評校方處理手法欠程序公義。由部分前幹事組成的「聯合上訴平台」,周五發佈一條當日與校方會面時的錄音,指有浸大高層當時向同學稱:「喺呢度再講多少少個人感受,你哋可以有好多抗爭,但你記住一樣嘢,你打我一拳,我一定踢返你一腳。咁搞落去呢,學生會就好慘,當然我都好慘㗎。」

HKU plans to pair local and non-local students as roommates; student representatives say survey shows 97% opposed

港大擬配對本地及非本地生同宿 學生代表:問卷調查97%同學反對

The University of Hong Kong’s Hall Committee issued a notice to wardens on Monday (15th), proposing that from the next academic year, hall offices would assign roommates to new residents and pair local and non-local students wherever possible, saying the aim was to promote integration and cultural exchange among residents. Casey Yau Hong Chik, an undergraduate representative on HKU’s Council, and Wong Chak-ming, an undergraduate representative on the Education Committee, surveyed students the day before yesterday. They received about 800 responses, 20% of them from non-local students, and 97% indicated opposition. They will meet with the university to discuss the matter.

香港大學宿舍委員會周一(15日)向舍監發通告,擬由下個學年起,舍堂辦公室會為新宿生分配室友,將盡可能配對本地及非本地生,稱是為了促進宿生間的共融及文化交流。港大校務委員會本科生代表戚由康、教委會本科生代表王則銘前日向學生發問卷作調查,收回約800個回應,當中兩成為非本地生,97%均表示反對,將約見校方商討。

Hong Kong Baptist University Students Sign Petition Urging School to Withdraw Disciplinary Action

浸大學生聯署促校方撤回處分

After three years without an executive committee, the Hong Kong Baptist University Students’ Union finally formed an elected executive committee. However, last month the university took disciplinary action against all members, citing descriptions of past events in the executive committee’s platform and other materials as “not in line with society’s standards and values”. Four members were barred from participating in university affairs, effectively resulting in the executive committee being “disbanded”. The executive committee announced its resignation on Monday (the 8th). Some members, acting in their personal capacities, launched a petition and a “one person, one letter” campaign demanding that the university withdraw the disciplinary action. They criticised the university’s allegations as unclear and said students had not been given an opportunity to respond, with members merely “being notified” that they would face disciplinary action, which they said lacked procedural justice.

浸會大學學生會斷莊3年後終有「正莊」,惟校方上月以幹事會政綱等資料對過去事件的描述「不符合社會的標準和價值觀」為由,對全體成員作出紀律處分,其中四人被禁參與校政,變相令幹事會「被解散」。幹事會周一(8日)宣布請辭,部分成員以個人身份發起聯署及「一人一信」,要求校方撤回懲處。他們批評校方指控不清晰,亦沒有讓學生申辯,成員如「被通知」接受處分,做法欠程序公義。

Hong Kong Baptist University Students’ Union stripped of right to participate in university governance; all executive members resign

浸大學生會被校方「剝奪參與校政權利」 全體幹事請辭

Following the Hong Kong Baptist University Students’ Union’s failure to form an executive committee in 2020, its new executive committee, “Cangming”, took office in April. Shortly after taking office, the university disciplined the union’s executive members, citing complaints it had received and verified as substantiated. The disciplinary measures included stripping them of the right to participate in university governance. “Cangming” announced yesterday (May 8) that all its executive members had resigned, leaving the union without an executive committee again.

浸大學生會自2020年「斷莊」後,新莊「滄溟」於4月上任。惟上任不久後校方以收到投訴、被查證屬實為由,對學生會幹事進行懲處,包括「剝奪參與校政權利」。「滄溟」於昨日(5月8日)宣布全體幹事請辭,浸大學生會再度「斷莊」。

Hong Kong Baptist University Receives Anonymous Complaint, Punishes Interim Committee Members

浸大接匿名投訴 處罰臨行委成員

After earlier punishing four members of the newly inaugurated Student Union Executive Committee, effectively disqualifying the new cabinet, Hong Kong Baptist University has taken further action against the Student Union. Wing Lam (LSHK:2022-06) Ng, secretary of the now-retired 55th Interim Administrative Committee, said in an online statement that the committee had received notification from the university. The university said it had received another anonymous complaint alleging that the Interim Administrative Committee’s farewell remarks contained hate speech. It directly punished five committee members without a trial. The penalties included submitting a reflection essay, with the requirement to “sincerely and deeply reflect on their mistakes,” a 16-month ban on participating in all student organisation affairs, and completion of a national security law test.

浸大校方早前懲處新上任的學生會幹事會四名成員、變相 DQ 新內閣後,又再有動作整治學生會;已卸任的第五十五屆臨時行政委員會,秘書吳泳霖在網上發聲明,指收到校方通知,校方稱又收到匿名投訴,指臨行委發表的卸任感言含有仇恨言論,校方在無審訊下直接處罰五名臨行委成員,罰則包括交反思文章,「須真誠及深切反省過錯」,禁止五人參與一切學生組織事務為期十六個月,以及完成國安法測驗要求。

Liberal Studies Ends, Former Teacher Says It Was a Scapegoat for Governance Failures and Its Thought-Provoking Role Is Hard to Replace

通識科畫句號 前教師感嘆做管治失敗「代罪羔羊」啟發思考難取代

The DSE Liberal Studies subject officially ended yesterday and will be fully replaced next year by the Citizenship and Social Development subject. Fong Chak Tin, who taught Liberal Studies for 11 years, said on a radio programme that politics accounted for only a small part of the curriculum and that the format of examination questions was not sensitive. He said Liberal Studies was a “scapegoat” and that, amid governance problems, the government had “found something to blame”. He also joked: “If students were so easy to incite, I would incite them to hand in their homework on time first.” He said the Citizenship and Social Development curriculum “only writes about the benefits”, leaving students no room to discuss opposing views, and candidly said he “couldn’t stand it” after teaching the subject for one year.

DSE通識教育科昨正式畫上句號,明年全面由「公民與社會發展科」取代。曾任職11年通識科教師的田方澤在電台節目表示,課程涉及政治只屬少部份,試卷提問形式亦不敏感。他認為通識科是「代罪羔羊」,因政府出現管治問題「搵樣嘢嚟賴」,他更笑言若學生如此容易煽動,「我就煽動佢準時交功課先啦」。他又指公社科課程「全部淨係寫好處」,同學沒有空間討論正反意見,坦言任教公社科一年便「頂唔順」。
