A Liberal Arts Uni for Student Transformation

I've completed a Bachelor and a Master degree there. The uni is small (the smallest in HK), and to me it was just perfect, e.g. low student-to-faculty ratio, 100% on-campus housing, good food from the Chinese restaurant on campus. All academic building are within short walking distance, and you can reach a supermarket, post office and convenient store within a 10-minute walk. International students may find dorm life a bit challenging because only induction cooktops and microwaves are available and no cooking with fire is allowed in all student dorms.
