Sunday morning (Sept. 19) witnessed a special UIC welcome ceremony for its 2025 Class at N101: two engaging presentations from two UIC faculty members on the importance of knowing the laws outside the classroom, and on academic integrity in college studies, for the upcoming four years as MUST’ers in Macao.
Prof. Jianrong Sun, Dean of UIC, welcomed all the new students in attendance, and shared the rationale and purposes for this UIC “New Student Success” four years program.
The first presentation by Dr. Si Leong U addressed the issue of local laws and regulations that students will encounter during their stay in Macao. Dr. U exemplified with routine life behaviors from daily transportation to labor-related expectations for college students.
Dr. Wei attracted the audience with his humorous talk on common behaviors that might be deemed academically inappropriate.
Both presentations provided practical tips and easy-to-understand explanations for what and how law-abiding and academic integrity are expected from all college students, to help students with their college transitions.
Students were invited to give feedback through a survey on what topics they would like to address on future UIC activities. UIC will collect students’ feedback to design future activities that can better benefit the students for their successful college studies and college experiences.
