Dear Students and Lecturers,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The previous message regarding the similar matter was issued based of the following considerations:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Typhoon No. 8 signal will be lowered 20 minutes after 4:00pm<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. It is extremely difficult to reschedule class due to the tight schedule of Semester 3 classes.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Some classes’ schedule is very restrictive that rescheduling may not be possible.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    The decision to continue class schedule this evening was under fired since the Adverse Weather Arrangement regulation states that all classes should be cancelled if Typhoon No. 8 signal remain hoisted after 4:00pm<\/strong>. Well, the Hong Kong Observatory did state that the signal will be changed to No. 3 at 4:20pm today. It has not been changed yet. But, it avoid adverse travelling, it is better for us to make a decision before that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Rules are rules. They are not made to be broken without strong and agreeable-by-all reason. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Since it is not possible to please everyone, please be advised that ALL CLASSES ON 17 JULY 2023 ARE TO BE CANCELLED.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Please consult the lecturer in charge for class reschedule information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    My sincere apology for any confusion caused.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Regards,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
