St. John’s College is an Anglican college affiliated to the University of Hong Kong,[1] which provides accommodation to undergraduates and postgraduates. As the successor of St. John’s Hall, which was founded in 1912, the College is the oldest residential hall/college of the University. Constitutionally, the College is a body corporate established by statute, the St. John’s College Ordinance (Chapter 1089, Laws of Hong Kong), on 27 April 1956. As such, unlike other residential halls/colleges that are directly administered by the University, the College enjoys financial and administrative independence.[4] The Ricci Hall, run by the Иезуиты - единственный зал, не принадлежащий университету.

Цели Колледжа, как указано в Преамбуле Постановления о Колледже Св. Иоанна, заключаются в «стремлении к добродетели и здоровому обучению с верой в Бога и в рамках англиканского сообщества; и с этой целью предоставить жилье учителям. и студентов всех рас, где они могут жить, учиться и поклоняться вместе, а также содействовать заочной деятельности в области христианского обучения и служения, чтобы члены Колледжа могли лучше понять и выполнить свой долг перед Богом и своими ближними ". [5]

Колледж расположен на Pokfulam Road к юго-западу от главного кампуса университета и прямо напротив спортивного центра Flora Ho Sports Center. Он имеет собственную столовую, бар с бильярдным столом, библиотеку, часовню и студенческую комнату отдыха. В нем обучается 223 студента и 111 аспирантов, и все они обеспечены одноместными комнатами. Жители называют Колледж «Сент-Джонс», а себя - «Сент-Джонсианами» (соответственно «聖 莊» и «莊 民» на кантонском диалекте ).

История [ править ]

Происхождение обучения по месту жительства [ править ]

В январе 1908 года губернатор Лугард сослался на план создания HKU при вручении наград Колледжу Святого Стефана , школе-интернату, управляемой Церковным миссионерским обществом (CMS) для сыновей китайского дворянства. [6] Вскоре после этого сэр Моди предложил внести свой вклад в покрытие расходов на строительство университета, и были быстро предприняты работы по рассмотрению и подготовке схемы. Уже тогда комитет, созванный губернатором, решил, что в задачи HKU должно входить развитие и формирование «характера студентов не меньше, чем их интеллектуальных способностей». [7] В меморандуме от 20 марта 1910 года губернатор Лугард подробно разъяснил этот вопрос:

Было сказано, что Гонконгский университет стремится дать чисто светское образование… и что он будет обеспечивать только материальное и интеллектуальное развитие, пренебрегая воспитанием характера и нравственности. Если бы это было так, я бы, в любом случае, не оказал бы свою сердечную поддержку проекту ... в целях обеспечения дисциплины и нравственного воспитания было решено, что внешние студенты не будут приниматься, если они не проживают в общежитиях, проводимых в соответствии со строгими правилами, установленными Совет. Такие общежития будут состоять исключительно из заведений, основанных и находящихся в ведении религиозных организаций, желающих в течение своей карьеры в университете осуществлять надзор за учениками, которых они воспитали в своих школах.Все остальные должны будут проживать на территории под пристальным наблюдением персонала, и мы надеемся, что, привлекая людей нужного уровня, а не просто педагогов, таким образом окажут наилучшее влияние на студентов. [8]

Основание Зала Св. Иоанна [ править ]

На этом фоне CMS планировала построить англиканское общежитие. Их призыв о выделении средств был поддержан губернатором Лугардом, который надеялся, что CMS продолжит «заботиться и дисциплинировать своих учеников». [9]

Вопрос о предоставлении общежития CMS был официально поднят на Церковной конференции епархии в сентябре 1910 года епископом Ландером , который считал эту схему «вызовом нашей Церкви, от которого мы не должны отказываться». [10] В то время CMS владела сайтом прямо напротив предполагаемого университета, на котором размещалась женская школа CMS, известная как «Fairlea» (основана в 1886 г.). Было решено, что здесь будет построено общежитие CMS, а школа для девочек перенесена в другое место. Fairlea в конечном итоге была перемещена на Prospect Terence, а затем на Lyttelton Road, где она делила кампус с колледжем St. Stephen's Girls 'College до 1936 года, когда Fairlea объединилась со школой Victoria, чтобы сформировать школу Heep Yunn .[11]

Работа по адаптации сайта и привлечению средств проводилась под руководством архидиакона Э. Дж. Барнетта, который был начальником (аналог «Директора») колледжа Святого Стефана с 1903 по 1913 год. Ливерпульская епархия «сделала много для того, чтобы добиться успеха». достижение возможно ». [12] Старое здание Fairlea было приспособлено для проживания, а новое здание было построено к востоку от него господами Денисоном, Рамом и Гиббсом . Преподобный У.Х. Хьюитт, капеллан колледжа Святого Стефана, был избран старшим смотрителем. Он и архидиакон Барнетт вместе разработали Устав и правила Зала Святого Иоанна и общежитий университета. [13]

When the University formally opened in September 1912, St. John’s Hall was the only hostel ready for occupation. Those to follow were: Lugard Hall (1913), Morrison Hall (1913), Eliot Hall (1914) and May Hall (1915). In the first term, 33 students were admitted to St. John’s Hall, 23 of whom were old boys of St. Stephen’s College. Those admitted to the "University Hall" (a temporary name for the secular hostels – Lugard, Eliot and May) were temporarily accommodated in the University Main Building.[14]

College Life[edit]

The College aims to promote all-round development and holistic growth through encouraging active participation in various sports and cultural activities.

Sports[edit]

The College has a rich sporting history, with particular emphasis on education through "new ball games".

New ball games are team sports that offer a unique learning experience distinct from mainstream sports. As players generally have no prior experience of such sports, they start on a level playing field and gradually develop skills and camaraderie. Teams include:

  • Hockey (Men and Ladies)
  • Softball (Men and Ladies)
  • Lacrosse (Men)
  • Handball (Ladies)

Other sports teams include athletics, aquatics, badminton, basketball, soccer, squash, table tennis, tennis and volleyball.
The College has consistently attained outstanding performance in various inter-hall competitions:

  • Men’s Inter-Hall Sports Competition Championship
    • The College won the Malayan Cup in 1960, 1961, 1962, 1970, 1977, 1985, 1992, 1996, 1999, 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012 and 2013.
  • Ladies’ Inter-Hall Sports Competition Championship
    • The College won the Omega Rose Bowl in 1967, 1968, 1970, 1971, 1973, 1977, 1978, 1979, 1980, 1981, 1982, 1983, 1984, 1986, 1987, 1988, 1989, 1990, 1991, 1992, 1993 and 1994.
    • The Bowl was later renamed the Olma Challenge Rose Bowl and was won by the College in 1995, 1996, 1998, 1999, 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2008, 2012 and 2014.

Cultural Activities[edit]

Cultural teams include band, bridge, choir, dance, debate and drama. The Prof. Y. C. Cheng Cup was established in 1997 as an award for the Champion of Inter-Hall Cultural Competitions. The College won the Cup in 1999, 2005, 2009, 2010, 2013 and 2014.

Round the Island (RTI)[edit]

Currently in its 30th year, RTI is an annual event where participants run a total of 38 km around Hong Kong Island. Since 2004, RTI has been used as a fundraising event for various charitable organizations.

Admissions[edit]

The College is a non-university administered hall and thus does not participate in the Joint Hall Admission Scheme. Applicants apply directly to the College and may be invited to attend an interview for the College to assess the merits of the application. The College considers applicants’ potential to make the most out of their university hall experience and commuting distance is not a factor in the admission process.

Notable alumni[edit]

St. John’s College Alumni Association, The University of Hong Kong, Ltd. was founded in 1991 as a means of fostering contact between alumni across different generations. Over the years, the association has established itself as one of the most respected alumni bodies within the University community.
