"Chow will return to Hong Kong, where she plans to design a humanities curriculum for an education center as well as organize and teach at a summer camp run by a nongovernmental organization that helps Mainland-Chinese immigrant children adapt to the local school environment."
Would be interesting to see where she will be 5 years from now.

好唔明點解香港人變得咁小心眼。明明有個香港學生做出令有識之士叫好嘅成積 (by the way, name another locally bred who became Valedictorian of a major Ivy League), 總有些人跑出來單單打打。那些什麼這個那個 (費事開名抬舉佢/佢地），斷估你（們）冇本事培養出本地單一學校（不論本地或國際學校）嘅 Valedictorian. For Christ's and your child's sake, get a life and start to learn to appreciate others' efforts.

其實除了井底之最底之蛙外，邊個會將 Princeton's Valed 等同補習天皇？有時間睇睇外國學術網站今天報導，唔好只係活在自己小小世界中。By the way, l love this forum! It's so amusing!

By the way, may I humbly ask Mr. FattyDaddy enlighten me as to why he chose to single out the passage he quoted without mentioing Shapiro Prize for Academic Excellence, Phi Beta Kappa, French theater troupe L'Avant-Scène, tourguiding the Princeton University Art Museum, tutoring prisons in New Jersey, the Petey Greene Program, the prison-teaching initiative, Princeton Reentry and Employment Preparation (PREP), the eight-week curriculum for students to learn about the job application procedure she developed...? Does one become sinful by doing something Chinese?

Sectective quoting is a sign of real inferiority complex and nacassristic disorder.
Anyway enough of this crap. You think what you like and it is pretty clear just who has a disorder here.

You still haven't answered my very simple question: why did you quote what you quote?
作者: NoahArk 時間: 17-4-25 22:53
WOW. You are so good in question avoidance. Should I refer you to Edelman or MSLGroup?

You consider THAT an answer. Wow, I overstimated you. My fault.

Five years from now, she will probably have earned her PhD from Stanford.
From that article in the official website of Princeton, it reads
"After graduating, Chow will pursue a Ph.D. in comparative literature at Stanford University, where she plans to study digital humanities and European-Chinese literary relations."
And for the quote you made. Yes, the wordings are directly copied and pasted from the article but is not complete. The complete sentence should read
"Over the coming summer, Chow will return to Hong Kong, where she plans to design a humanities curriculum for an education center as well as organize and teach at a summer camp run by a nongovernmental organization that helps Mainland-Chinese immigrant children adapt to the local school environment."
From that article, it implies that she is coming back to HK this summer holiday to do those stuff and afterwards she will go further studies in Stanford.
I have no idea why you omitted the first 4 words in your quote. BUT, you did a great job in creating a misleading message to other readers of this thread.
I recently watched a movie "The Denial" about the famous "David Irving v Penguin Books and Deborah Lipstadt". The judge's ruling:
"Irving has for his own ideological reasons persistently and deliberately misrepresented and manipulated historical evidence ... therefore the defence of justification succeeds..."
As parents or someones who care about hk education, please try to be a responsible digital citizen and be responsible about what we say online. Please do not manipulate fact or information because of personal belief or whatever reasons.

After Stanford? She is not coming back to HK to pursue her career?
Don't try to muddy the issue, the point in quoting that passage (with or without the 4 words) is to highlight her wish to return to HK, which is very admirable. I really don't see why some people try to read so much into it, other than because they have a chip on their shoulder.

Interesting!
It is for sure in that article that she did not mention her intention to pursue her career in HK or other places in the world after she completes her PhD in Stanford.
I did not try to muddy the issue. I was just fact checking ... easily by reading the same article, which is written in simple english. Just want to clarify in this thread so that other readers won't be misled by your incomplete quote. Misrepresentation and misinterpretation make me uncomfortable.
From the tone of your message, I believe that your selection of words in the quote was intentional. Well, it's only my belief so no need to debate with me.
Anyway, wish you good luck!

If you read so much negativity into other's comments, you're on your way to join our friend NoahArk in the psychiatric ward.

Well, now you change your wordings to "an interest to contribute to HK"
From the article:-
"Over the coming summer, Chow will return to Hong Kong, where she plans to design a humanities curriculum for an education center as well as organize and teach at a summer camp run by a nongovernmental organization that helps Mainland-Chinese immigrant children adapt to the local school environment."
Yes, from that piece of information, we can comfortably conclude that "she is coming back to contribute to HK this summer".
But you said in message #12
" I "selectively" quoted that passage because it indicates her wish to return to HK to develop her career."
It is definitely not established based on the information from that article. Nothing was mentioned in the article specifically about pursuing career.

I do agree with you that her planned work and contribution in HK coming summer should be praised and admired:-
"design a humanities curriculum for an education center as well as organize and teach at a summer camp run by a nongovernmental organization that helps Mainland-Chinese immigrant children adapt to the local school environment"
Similarly to all her other contribution to the community in or outside HK:
"She volunteers as a tour guide with the Princeton University Art Museum and has tutored in prisons in New Jersey with the Petey Greene Program. In her junior year, she launched a prison-teaching initiative, Princeton Reentry and Employment Preparation (PREP). Chow developed an eight-week curriculum for students to learn about the job application procedure, including resume and cover letter writing and interview training. The program now includes 20 Princeton student volunteers who teach at four correctional facilities."
It is just not the case, based on the information from that article, that those work or contribution (in or outside HK) should be linked with her career development plan or decision.
And her long term plan, at this moment based on the article, is "pursue a Ph.D. in comparative literature at Stanford University"
That's the reason I found your messages misleading and needed to clarify here. Thank you.

Based on the information from the article, it is reasonable for any good willed person to assume she plans to return to HK to pursue her career. Granted, it's not explicitly written, and what you have "clarified" is that she may not be returning to HK, and I guess you think you're the positive one. Fine, suit yourself :)
