二零一三科大大事回顧

UST Review 2013

一年來，科大不算平靜，上半年更是鬧哄哄，可惜好消息少之又少。下面枚舉的大事，都引起同學共鳴，攸關同學權益，近乎全部都經校內外傳媒報道過。

It was not a peaceful year for UST. The former half of the year was even in hustle and bustle, yet good news was few. The events below aroused sympathy and were related to students' rights and benefits. Nearly all of them were reported by media inside or outside our university.

SAO干預Pro P規則制訂和執法 
SAO's Intervention into Pro P Regulation Legislation and Enforcement

學生事務處（SAO）於籌備會社宣傳期（Pro P）之始提議限制叫莊（Chanting）、取締大型宣傳品（大Dec），期間派駐SAO職員睇場管理，盡顯短視安排和鐵腕手段。

Student Affairs Office (SAO) suggested restrictions on chanting and a ban on big decorations at the beginning of preparation of Promotion Period (Pro P) and sent its staff to supervise and manage during Pro P, showing its short-sighted arrangements and strong hand.

The Forgotten Express Stations

Have you ever noticed the two blue machines beside the entrance of Barn B when passing by? These two are Express Stations, though you may seldom notice them. A consensus about their efficiency may still not exist, but it is undeniable that their usage rate has been low for a long time. Here some suggestions to improve Express Stations would be provided.

Card readers are set up at Express Stations so that fellow students can manage their HKUST Cards besides surfing on the Net and receiving and sending emails. There are in total twenty-eight Express Stations. One can say they are ubiquitous. Eight of them are on Academic Concourse that you can find any once you pay more attention, but their usage rate is so low that fellow students are seldom seen to use them. Those which are used most often are in halls as it is convenient to pay the air-conditioning fee through Express Stations. There are two reasons behind their low general usage rate. Firstly, the University lacks promotion. Secondly, they are difficult to use. The trackballs installed now save space, but most fellow students are not used to them and turn to card readers in Barns instead.

Human Beings Always Make the Same Mistake – Lee Shau Kee Business Building

Perhaps because during designing the costly Business Building the University overemphasized the materials and the beauty of its design for an impression of the excellent quality with a reasonable price, its utility is not taken into thorough consideration. The Building, constructed on the hillside at South Gate, is located beside the former home of Shaw Studio and the vacated TV City. One needs to pass through two escalators to arrive at the main entrance. The designers considered that the outdoor escalators may not be able to withstand the winds, rain and sunlight in the long term, so added a semi-transparent glass cover caringly. In view of the urgency of repair of the escalator with two consecutive days because of heavy rain, it could be said that though such act is not effective, it is based on foresight.

However, the stairs next to the escalator do not benefitfrom such foresight as well . On the same day, it was observed that the escalator was out of order to make it necessary for students holding up their umbrellas to walk through the stairs wide enough for only two persons to pass simultaneously. Within only ten minutes, the stairs needed to accommodate the flow of people to and for the Building simultaneously. The situation was like how it is at the “extremely narrow” stairs to South Gate outside Lifts 31-32. Also, as no cover was built above the stairs and raindrops were accumulated on the ground, accidents were easy to happen. Obviously it was due to the careless consideration during planning. It was also probably due to the sacrifice of utility for beauty and even a lack of consultation and of transparency of the plan. Therefore the design of the Business Building could not meet students’ needs.

校園規劃四宗罪

Four Problems in Campus Planning

誰不想在理想校園環境學習、生活？誰不想我們第二個家的規劃可以更完善？既然有份使用校園，那麼對校園規劃有要求、有寄望，亦是人之常情。實情是，校園規劃一直都有很多不如人意的地方，的確容易惹來諸多不滿。規劃毛病多多，乃基於以下四個累積已久的弊端：部份設施低效用，擺姿態，如同裝飾擺設，此其一；設計不便利使用者，校方對使用者需要了解有限，此其二；校方漠視民意，了無顯著改善，此其三；校方當年短視，欠缺長遠、永續的校園規劃，又沒堅持定下的規劃方針，此其四。下文將列舉種種例子，加以說明，予以佐證。眾例乍聞似是天方夜譚，可惜科大的校園規劃往往比小說更離奇，怎一個怪字了得。

Who does not want to study in an ideal campus environment? Who does not hope for a better planning of our second home? It is ordinary that we users have requirements and expectations towards campus planning. The truth is, however, that many disadvantages have existed in the campus planning, arousing much dissatisfaction. They are based on the following four problems accumulated long. Firstly, some facilities are of low efficiency and like decorations. Secondly, the designs are non-user-friendly due to the University’s insufficient understanding about users’ needs. Thirdly, the University has been ignoring students’ opinions, making no prominent improvement. Fourthly, the University was short-sighted that it lacked a long-term and sustainable campus planning, without insistence of the objects of the planning. Below a number of examples would be listed to illustrate and prove the above problems. They may sound ridiculous, but they are still much less ridiculous than UST’s campus planning is.

The second translated article of Freshmen's Edition is as the follows:

商學院大樓 開學前到此一遊

A Preview of Lee Shau Kee Business Building

商學院大樓將於新學年正式啟用，以應付四年制的學生人數；紓緩本部大樓空間不足的問題。成為眾多商科學生每日的必經之地。事關重大，編委率先向大家介紹全新的商學院大樓。

Lee Shau Kee Business Building will be put in use next academic year to afford the number of the 4-year-system cohort and alleviate the lack of space in Academic Building, becoming the place Business students pass every day. As it is important, we will be the first to introduce this new Building.

李兆基商學大樓、高等研究院和高等研究院宿舍三部分，合稱為「李兆基學園」。其選址位於清水灣校園的最高點，臨近南閘。學園最初預計完工日期為一一年底，後分別延至一二年第二季及年底，終於在今年秋季新學年開始投入服務。

Lee Shau Kee Campus, comprising Lee Shau Kee Business Building, the Institute of Advanced Study (IAS) and the IAS Residences, is located at the top of our Clear Water Bay campus and near South Gate. It was first scheduled for completion at the end of 2011, but the schedule was then delayed to the second season in 2012 and the end of that year respectively. The Campus will begin to be in service in the coming academic year starting from this autumn finally.

This is the Third English version of article about school policy in Freshmen's Edition.

「校園電視」公投風波

Disputes in the Referendum regarding "Campus TV"

上年春季學期，僅僅四個月，科大已經熱鬧非常。先有學生事務處（SAO）越權管理學生選舉活動；再有仲裁委員會常設化修憲；接着有同學自組學生事務關注小組，發起聯署及公開論壇，爭取實現「校園共治」。不過，要數歷時最長的，可謂「校園電視公投風波」。科大學生會，一直維持四權分立原則，轄下有約一百個屬會，享高度自治，成就科大多元學生活動。傳媒方面，則有四大架構之一的「編委會」（即本報負責機關）及一屬會「科大電台」。今年五月，有基本會員SUN Kai Man James（下稱孫氏），蒐集超過一百八十名基本會員的聯署，連同長達十三頁的學生會憲章修訂條文，提交幹事會，發動公投，要求成立「校園電視」，並將之列為第五大架構。不過，由於投票票數僅343，不足會員人數18%（即1395 人），修憲議案最終不獲通過。然而，本會估計「校園電視」可能於不久的將來捲土重來，故特別製作此特輯，希望有助各位了解此事的來龍去脈。

UST was already in hustle and bustle within Spring Term last academic year, lasting for only 4 months, experiencing the act of Student Affairs Office (SAO) in excess of terms of reference to regulate student elections first, the amendment of the SU Constitution about building the permanency of the Court then, and the joint signature declaration and the open forum fighting for “co-governance in campus” originated by Students’ Affairs Concern Group formed by students on their own afterwards. The disputes in the Referendum regarding “Campus TV”, however, lasted for the longest period. HKUSTSU, remaining the principle of four separate powers, and its affiliate societies with a high degree of authority, about 100 in total, have contributed to diverse student activities. UST’s media include the Editorial Board (i.e. the body in charge of this Freshman Edition), one of the four bodies of the SU, and People's Campus Radio, an affiliate society. In May this year, a Full Member Sun Kai Man James (stated as Sun hereinafter) proposed a written requisition signed by not less than 180 Full Members with the proposed amendment of the SU Constitution of 13 pages, calling for a Referendum for establishment of “Campus TV” and listing it as the SU’s fifth body, and submitted it to the Executive Committee. Yet, since only 343 votes were casted, less than 18% of the total Full Membership of the Union (1395 persons), the resolution was not carried. However, it is expected that a comeback of “Campus TV” will be made soon possibly. This article is thus written especially for you to understand the event’s development.

 For whom is interested in English version, we are here to provide some articles of Freshmen's Edition about school policy.

HKUSTSU Structure

The Council

The legislature of HKUSTSU, it has the following main duties: to pass any rules or regulations in order to supervise and advice on all sub-organizations of HKUSTSU; to consider and approve the Master Budget of HKUSTSU and applications for affiliation to HKUSTSU; and to interpret the Constitution of HKUSTSU. There are 34 ex-officio seats taken by representatives of each (sub-organization i.e. each) HKUSTSU’s body and affiliated society in the Council, in which at most eight Popularly Elected Councilors are also included to reflect students' opinions. Its five standing
committees, each consisting of its members, i.e. the Affiliated Societies Committee, the Constitution Committee, Election Committee, the Finance Committee and the Council Administration Committee coordinate and handle the relevant affairs.

The Executive Committee

The administrative body of HKUSTSU, it has the following main duties: to handle all routine of HKUSTSU and to represent HKUSTSU externally. As the motion that HKUSTSU should join the Hong Kong Federation of Students (HKFS) was passed in a Referendum last year, the Executive Committee represents HKUSTSU to participate in HKFS's meetings as well. The fee of HKUSTSU membership fee of $100 every year thus includes the HKFS membership fee of $6 each person. The Executive Committee provides welfare for HKUSTSU's members such as Notebook Ownership Programme and Welfare Express. Its standing committees are responsible for coordination and
handling of internal and external affairs.

        温習在秋季——可能嗎？ 

Study Week in Fall Term—A Dream or Reality?

        科大素以學習成績為重，不論是選科、交流、住宿舍等方面，CGA這冷冰的數字都有意無意地彰顯其重要性。在科大，學習壓力大已是公認的事實。同學也不禁奇怪，為何温習週只限春季學期，工作量也不少的秋季學期竟無同等優待？

        Living in UST is highly correlated to academic results. CGA is emphasized in major selection, exchange, hall application, etc. It is universally recognized that it is a University of Stress and Tension. Yet study week is only limited to Spring Term, whereas the situation isn’t the same for the equally-stressful Fall Term.

科大外判 請三思！

科大外判事件激起眾多學生關注，陳繁昌校長終於在六月一日以 mass mail 形式正面回應有關事件，表示會擱置「設施服務」及「體育設施服務」外判招標，並成立專責小組在校內進行廣泛諮詢，為日後擬定一套更合乎社會企業準則的外判模式和招標程序，然後向校長遞交建議書。校方管理層閉門做車的作風向來為人詬病，儘管於是次外判事件中受到多方猛烈抨擊，校方態度依舊站在高處。在拒絕審視外判之必然性的前提下，校方試圖將工作小組包裝成廣納各方意見的實務性組織，甚至清晰訂出遞交建議書的時間表，好讓一眾關注基層員工福利的人士繼績跟進。不過，令人質疑的是，由翁以登副校長帶領的工作小組，是否能客觀地蒐集各方的意見？目前為止，校方沒有透露工作小組成員的來源，也沒有列明如何確保建議書之公允性。由於這份建議書將被校方用作決定是次外判事宜的重點根據，不禁令人懷疑校方藉以被刻意過濾的意見基礎合理化其外判的做法。此外，校方期望工作小組盡快於今年「第三季」前提交建議書，究竟這是指Fall Semester抑或是其他日子？不同人對「第三季」均有不同定義，若沒有閱讀英文版本的電郵，根本無法準確理解為「the end of the summer」，字眼上模糊不清，且有誤導傾向。

        早於五月中期，由一群關心科大員工福利的校友、學生及公眾人士自發成立的科大外判關注組(HKUST Concern Group for Outsourcing Practices)成功爭取與校方代表展開三次會談。在拒絕暫緩外判招標的前提下，校方由最初不承諾保障現有二十一名黃衫員工於外判實施後的生計，退而答應與所有黃衫員工續約一年，但表示將安排員工到新落成的學生宿舍繼續服務，以便日後全面推行外判。換句話說，本在LG3或LG5工 作的黃衫員工將於九月起逐歩撤離原來崗位。校方此舉無疑是向現職員工派定心丸，以求平息反對外判之聲音。不過，此「讓步」反映校方仍然強意執行外判，態度依舊。雖然黃衫員工的「飯碗」總算暫時保住，但被調派到宿舍工作，實是校方延缓之計，難保一年後將他們全數解約，而關注基層員工事務之學生組織也較難得知這批員工在外調後的待遇和福利。從根本的問題出發，為何校方強行調派黃衫員工到宿舍工作而不對外招聘員工擔任宿舍的崗位？很明顯，這些人事調動是為了配合推行外判之需要，但外判又是否有著充分的理據支持呢？


科大外判　理據何在?

         校方以提高服務質素和靈活處理員工老化問題兩點理據支持外判服務，並否認是次外判措施的目的在於節省成本，因為外判服務所涉及的開支相較現時校方以短期合約形式僱用員工的做法更高。不過，這說法存在不少漏洞。首先，向來政府、建築商或企業採納外判服務的原因不外乎成本和效益兩大考慮，而校方強調是次外判並非從成本角度出發，不惜付上昂貴的營運經費追求優越的服務質素，給予人一種「此地無銀三百兩」之感。

        再者，外判後人事管理及安排上存在更大變數。現時，由校方聘請的黃衫員工均有固定的工作位置，如掌管各類活動室之鑰匙、登記租借運動場地及設備之工作等 等，職責分明，不易出錯。遇上突發事件時，管理層可根據既定的人事分工表即時調配空餘人手，並給予員工一定的權力自行解決較為瑣碎的項目。基於學會幹事與黃衫員工之間建立一定的信賴，一旦在借取設備或處理預約房間時有任何突發事情，員工亦可以彈性處理，不必默守成規。

         若實施外判，一張張陌生的臉孔便被安排到不同的位置上工作，今天負責坐在諮詢櫃位，明天負責開門。故此，缺乏固有工作崗位的外判員工使管理層在調配人手上倍添困難，其人事安排亦必須經由外判公司的負責人下達，試問是否真的如校方所說，管理效率和靈活性會有所提升呢？另外，外判儼然使學生的個人資料如聯絡電話對外開放。本來僅由數位專門負責租用設施戓活動室記錄的員工掌管上述資料，外判後只要是被分配到此崗位的員工便可接觸，資料外泄風險將會大增。

         外判既未能節省成本，又造成管理層行政混亂，為何校方仍強意執行？這實在令人費解。


員工老化，唯有外判?

         校方聲稱黃衫員工「老化問題」嚴重，故有必要將體育設施管理服務外判。無可否認，黃衫員工年紀普遍較大，但不代表他們缺乏工作能力。其工作性質顯然不是出賣勞力，而是協助處理師生租借設施之需要。按照現時做法，校方有權在合約終結時不與老邁並且缺乏工作能力的員工續約，另以短期合約形式招聘合乎基本工作要求的員工。由此可見，現時由校方直接僱用黃衫員工的做法已有效替舊換新，維持一貫的服務質素，故實在無法理解校方為何非要訴諸外判這一途徑。


結語

        外判「設施服務」及「體育設施服務」跟外判校園清潔，保安等服務根本不能混為一談。兩者工作性質大相逕庭，校方絕不可只單憑後者之成功斷定前者亦然。體育設施管理服務所包括的服務範圍與學生的日常活動有著十分密切的關係，但校方偏偏在最初的外判事情上並沒有任何措施或意欲去諮詢同學意見。校方在當時己低估了外判事情對同學的影響，並僅僅在有上屆學生會會長在埸的會議上通知有關外判的決定，但學生會會長亦沒有任何的後續行動。

        經過科大外判關注組發起的一連串的活動和多次與校方會面，校方態度已由初時的不痛不癢，不願意對外判服務合埋性及其可行性作全面檢討；轉變為現今願意擱置康體設施場務服務外判招標並成立工作小組處埋有關的外判事宜。但有關聲明對外判服務的描述然令人懷疑校方是否真正明白學生所關注的事項。我們不是希望校方在「存在外判服務」的前提下去討論如何找出承擔企業社會責任的外判方式；我們期望的是校方多方面研究和諮詢是否有必要把這類服務外判。


        毫無疑問，校方起初以閉門造車和欠缺透明度的手法處理外判服務，令員工、學生和校方在內的多方面的團體利益受損。希望校方能好好運用現時的外判工作小組聆聽各方代表的聲音，全面研究和諮詢外判服務的原則和理據。一所頂尖國際性大學的認受性絶對不單只著重在其學術研究，能否承擔社會責任及實踐大學精神也應在其考慮之列。

科大外判關注組發起聯署聲明，第一天已有200多名師生聯署支持。

5月18日
關注組及學生會代表與校方第二次會面，提交逾七百師生聯署的公開信。是次會面對象是SAO 及協理副校長及學務長譚嘉因教授。席間學生代表要求校方立即暫停外判，先廣泛諮詢全校師生以及工友，並承諾與現有工友續約，維持合理薪金和待遇。
然而，校方依舊黑箱作業：
不肯承諾暫停外判；
不肯透露外判進度；
拒絕公開外判標書及條款等資料。
校方代表只答應現有21名負責「設施服務」和「體育服務」的員工定必能繼續留在科大服務，並口頭承諾協助約見負責外判的副校長，最快可於5月21日會面。
會後，關注組發表聲明，抗議校方繼續黑箱作業，一意孤行外判，剝削勞工權益，轉移「外判」視線。

5月尾至6月初的兩星期！

在這兩個星期內，校方將與招標成功的外判商簽署合約，事情逼在眉睫，刻不容緩。

5月21日
校方未有答允與關注組及學生會成員會面。

5月24日
科大外判關注組與科大學生會代表向校長抗議：反對科大外判，要求校長暫停外判，公開交代事件。

6月30日
現時員工合約結束期

7月1日
外判制上場！ (如果我們不能成功阻止外判的話。)

科大外判關注組與科大學生會代表於五月二十四日要求校長暫停外判，公開交代事件。

毋忘我——談四六、六四與香港

筆：批

那天，軍警包圍著學生宿舍，要求學生交出名單上的同學，雙方僵持多個小時，軍警終衝進宿舍抓人，學生被捕後由持槍兵員押走……

1949年3月，一名臺大及一名師院學生違規共乘單車，被警察攔下、毆打及拘押，隨即引發學生遊行，使得警方道歉及放人了事。然而學生運動並未結束，臺北學生在後來的青年節聚會中延續學潮，大唱學運歌曲和成立聯盟爭取自由及改善民生，同時國民黨卻派員從明從暗監視搜證。最終省主席決定鎮壓學運，並在4月6日逮捕過百名學生，其中七人被槍決，是為「四六事件」。

四六事件是專制政權對學生運動的暴力打壓，一群為人權發聲的學生慘被拘禁甚至處決，如此行為不但與當權黨派的民主理念南轅北轍，更粗暴地剝奪了人民的基本自由。臺灣人在其後的多年戒嚴下難以反抗，直到政治氣氛開放後才能平反四六，政府承認過失且還學生一個公道，雙方在不同位置上繼續為自由而努力，人民及執政者間的對立亦真正地得到消減。

從六十三年前臺北前進到二十三年前的北京，我們想起了性質相近但規模更大的六四事件。中共政府將四六事件的錯誤重複，釀成六四這場反人道的悲劇，而事後亦不但不認錯，更加強對人權的打壓。當然官民對立仍然無日無之，甚至愈趨強烈，社會問題亦不斷累積下去，中國人被逼過著欠自由的殘缺生活。今日的香港亦如是：民眾對不公義的反響屢被直接及間接暴力壓制，社會及人權問題日漸惡化。

幸運的是我們仍有僅存的抗爭空間。四六事件的平反及臺灣的民主化運動，都是臺灣人多年努力的成果，值得廣大受欺壓的香港人學習。借臺鑑港，我們應為本土的未來奮鬥，要求政府改錯歸善，還港人一個正常快樂的生活；與此同時，我們亦要爭取平反六四，不過這絕非對外地事務說三道四，而是追求基本自由的表現，與香港其它民眾運動的理念一脈相承。更何況六四事件對香港主權移交前後的政制發展有莫大影響，我們決不可一邊忘記這段歷史，一邊高談闊論民主道路何去何從。

很多人已經忘記了四六，不知道我們可以把被侵害的自由爭取回來。忘記六四的人亦愈來愈多，不知道人權何時開始被踐踏。或許在不久的將來，香港人會連被傷害都懵然不知。在地獄還未降臨的時候，我們必須記得四六、記得六四，並以行動找回港人應有的自由生活。

對《振翅之號外》引起爭議的聲明

Statement on the Controversy of the Extra Edition of WINGS

 對《振翅之號外》引起爭議的聲明

團結學生、凝聚力量

對《振翅之號外》引起爭議的聲明

　　科大編委會一直秉承著為全體科大同學發聲的宗旨。而在是次分配宿位風波中，本會亦同樣貫徹著這持之以恆的精神。這次事件中，本會於上星期五（四月二十日）向全校同學派發了《振翅之號外》，為同學報道是次分配宿位方面的消息，並評論SHO在分配宿位的程序上模糊不清、以及有同學被誤派HKAC等等問題上的行政失當、管理混亂。

　　然而，由於發放是次《號外》的時間倉促，編委會未能廣泛地聽取到非本地學生的意見。在交流不足的情況下，使我們對非本地學生派位結果了解不足，以致有部份《號外》的陳述與事實有所不符，並有對其不公允之意見，本會謹在此致歉。同時，編委會重申會致力為所有科大學生，包括居於偏遠地區之本地學生，以及於科大就讀第三年或以上的非本地學生服務，一視同仁，見不平而發聲，絕不間斷。對於未獲宿位而在香港沒有居所的同學，SHO必須提供最大的協助及支援，此外更應仿效香港大學的做法，提供貸款或津貼，以援助經濟上有困難的同學。

　　科大編委會亦會承諾當議題涉及全體學生的利益之時，會盡力提供完整的傳播渠道，包括發出中，英文版的內容，以助全體學生均能及時了解有關事情。

 

　　本會深信，科大是每一位同學共同擁有的，憑著我們同心協力、不畏強權的努力，終會爭取到更美好的明天。來，團結我們所有學生的力量，以更大的聲音向校方呼喊出我們的訴求！

Stand Together, Unify Our Effort 

Statement on the Controversy of the Extra Edition of WINGS

The Editorial Board, HKUSTSU, always spare no efforts in voicing our students’ opinions to the school. In the recent dispute over the allocation of hall place, our board has consistently performed our duty. Last Friday (20th April), we distributed the Extra Edition of WINGS to all students, reported the whole incident, and criticized the school authority’s inefficient management and unclear instruction to students.

However, because of the inadequate amount of time preparing the Extra Edition of WINGS, we faced difficulties collecting opinions from non-local students. In the absence of adequate communication, we may not have a thorough understanding of the whole picture, which resulted in reporting inaccurate information and creating some misunderstandings. We, the Editorial Board, HKUSTSU, hereby sincerely apologize for any hard feelings aroused. Moreover, we would like to clarify that we are devoted to serve ALL HKUST students, both local students living in remote districts, such as Tin Shui Wai and Lamma Island, and non-local Year-3 or above students, without any kind of injustice. Therefore, we strongly recommend that SHO should provide them with utmost support and assistance, so as to overcome this situation. As the University of Hong Kong has been providing subsidies for non-local students, our school should grant subsidies or loans to students with financial difficulties.

We, the Editorial Board, HKUSTSU, promise that when discussing issues involving the interest of all students, we would by every means provide a comprehensive channel to include both Chinese and English editions, so that all students could understand the related matter.

We truly believe that only with our collective effort can we build a better tomorrow. It’s time to stand together and be united. Let all of our voices be heard!
