HALL EDUCATION DEVELOPMENT PROJECT
The Hall Education Development (HED) Project, kicked off in January 2011, targets at achieving the university and hall educational aims with a model of halls, and enhancing student learning experience through hall education.
The HED Project would consolidate the objectives of hall education, develop the intended learning outcomes of hall education, and through policies and measures, allow halls to contribute to the academic advising system and to develop better relationship with the local communities. Existing and new activities would be enhanced or introduced and a series of forums would be held to review on hall culture, in order to meet the expectations of the Project.....
HALL EDUCATION DEVELOPMENT OFFICE
The Hall Education Development Office (HEDO) was set up at the first stage of the HED Project as a foundation for further expansion of subsequent stages of the Project and a Management Committee (the Committee) comprising wardens, staff and student representatives was formed. The Intellectual Development Sub-committee and the Student Project Sub-committee have been the subordinate bodies assisting the Committee in two different respects.

RESIDENCE-BASED ACADEMIC ADVISING (RAA) SYSTEM
In order to create an integrated educational and residential experience for students and address the concerns of freshmen living in halls, the University is planning to establish a RAA System starting in the academic year 2012-13.
Under the RAA System, a number of Residential Student Advisers would be recruited to help advise freshmen on hall matters and on striking balance between studying and hall activities.
Two pilot RAA schemes, with the help of HEDO, were successfully launched from January to April 2012, one involving the three halls in Sassoon Road, i.e. Lee Hysan Hall, R. C. Lee Hall and Wei Lun Hall, and one involving Swire Hall.
