INAUGURATION
CEREMONY

he inauguration of the Medical Alumni
TBuddy Programme kicked off on 14 May
2016. The ceremony was attended by more than
100 students and alumni, including the Dean of
the Faculty of Medicine, Professor Francis Chan,
the convener of the Medical Alumni Buddy
Programme, Dr Siu Wing-tai and Associate
Dean (Alumni Affairs), Professor Enders Ng.
The inauguration event laid the groundwork for
bond-building between student leaders who
were organizing the O Camp, and core groups
of the newly-established Buddy system.

PRE-O CAMP DINNER

gathering was held on 20 July 2016 with some
A 70 people attending the event. The dinner was
one of the first steps in building relationships and
networks among alumni buddy and student leaders
before meeting the freshmen at O Camp.
During the gathering, alumni shared some of their
special memories during their study days and recounted
their experiences as medical students. They spoke
about their career paths and also gave an insight into
how the medical sector works. Students, for their part,
inquired about the different medical specialties.
It is hoped that through such gatherings, students
will be able to gain valuable lessons from the alumni’s
contributions and experiences.
