【Collection Highlights】 Student’s Journal
Can you believe it? Summer break’s almost over! Have you been busy living the intern life this summer, just like the bunny in the comic?
This bunny comic is excerpted from Dare, one of the student journals published by the Student Union. They were first launched in 1984 and have appeared under various titles, including 《樹寄》, 《徊․响》, 《歡迎光臨》, 《鋒芒初露》, and 《Dare》. Although the publication was ceased, these journals captured vibrant student life and the stories that unfolded within the University. The University Archives team has digitized the collection, making the electronic versions available for viewing.
Shue Yan staff and students can log in with their library accounts on Shue Yan AtoM to access the full text online.
