We have received from the Reggistrar of the Hoo, ong University a copy of the University's Calendar ior 1£20-1921 which contains information not only of interest to students but to everyone who has at heart the furtherance of British education in this part of the world. The cost of attending the ersity must commend itself to those Chinese who, for one reason or another, are unable to proceed to Great Britain. For example, $650 will cover his expenses at the University during term time for a whole year, less than the cost of ges to and from England.
this inducement counterbalanced by any inferiority in the educational standard of the university, it would be no inducement at all. But such is not the case, for the standard of the University of London is the one aimed at by Hongkong, and that, as is well known, is high. The students are in a British Colony, meet European fellow students, and at the same time are in touch with all things Chinese. Thereby they are Tyeserved from the denationalizing|iendencies of a purely European education. These are factors which cannot but be for the good of the students and when the facilities held out to external students for advanced instruction in various subjects are fully availed of, the University will fill, that educational role which its original tors dreamed of years ago.
