Hong Kong (UCAN): Plans by the Society of Jesus to open a liberal arts university in Hong Kong have come up against challenges recently.
The university has been slated to open in 2014, but seven other institutions have tendered for the proposed campus site. In addition, the original plan called for places for 3,000 students, but the government requirement is for 8,000.
"The Jesuit Education Board (JEB) representing the School Sponsoring Body is of the opinion that Wah Yan College, Kowloon will accept the EDB's decision for the schools in the Yau Tsim Mong (YTM) District. We are not going to apply for exemption basically because we do not have strong reason that can justify our application. Wah Yan College, Hong Kong, however, is qualified for exemption since it has a feeder school. Even if we are to be allocated 2-1-1, we are only 5 students less than the 1-1-1 option in the first year and throughout the next three years. We also notice that the change is only temporary as we like other schools need to increase the class size back to its original level when the S1 population rises."
皇后山私大擬擱置 教局不知 
【明報專訊】特首梁振英於明年1月公布施政報告時，將公布增加覓地措施，其中一招是考慮擱置粉嶺皇后山地皮發展私立大學計劃，轉用作發展住宅。不過，有關改動隨時變早前擱置啟德體育城爭議的翻版。據悉，提出擱置皇后山辦私大構思的是發展局長陳茂波，他認為本地私立大學學位的需求較預期中低，認為地皮若招標反應欠佳，便應釋放地皮建屋。但教育局對有關研究並不知情，令私大政策的延續出現變數。

【明報專訊】教育局早前宣布即將推出粉嶺皇后山私大用地招標，早已表明有意申請土地的天主教耶穌會大學，今日將召開學校首次校董會。天主教耶穌會大學籌建工作小組主席周守仁表示，該校計劃將原定學生人數3000，增加近1.7倍至8000人，當中包括本科生3000人、專業訓練學生2000人、研究生3000人，預計每年學費或高達20萬元，但會為三成至六成學生提供獎助學金，確保窮學生也有機會接受優質教育。
耶穌會大學昨舉行「專上教育與滅貧」研討會，出席者包括多間海外耶穌會大學校長、科大經濟系主任雷鼎鳴、港大社會學系教授呂大樂、兆基創意書院校監黃英琦等。
招標慢令籌款難

耶穌會有意在香港申辦私立大學，我期待計劃能成功。
耶穌會有很強的辦學傳統，香港華仁和九龍華仁書院便是由耶穌會打理。翻查資料，原來耶穌會在世界各地，設立了約二百家大學，包括出了多名諾貝爾獎得主的波士頓學院。
我沒有念過耶穌會的大學，但在九龍華仁度過了七年，那是我的求學生涯中，最愉快的歲月。
