The Rhodes Scholarship is the oldest and one of the most prestigious international fellowships. 12 CUHK graduates were awarded the Scholarship and furthered their studies at the University of Oxford, making CUHK the local university with the most Rhodes Scholars. Four Rhodes Scholars from CUHK, namely Mr William Wong Ming-fung, Barrister-at-Law (1994); Mr Jack Wong Chak-kei, Managing Director, Investment Banking, Barclays Capital Asia Limited (1996); Dr Amanda Lee Pui-shan of banking (1998); and Ms Jade Lai Wing-yu, Manager (Research) of Bauhinia Foundation Research Centre (2000), have returned to their alma mater on 16 April for the CUHK 45th Anniversary Lecture – 'Rhodes Scholars at CUHK'. During the lecture, they spoke on the importance of international perspectives and shared their academic pursuits and experiences in studying at Oxford with over a hundred university and secondary school students. Through face-to-face interactions with outstanding role models, students received first-hand advice on various issues, which broadened their horizons and strengthened their global awareness.
