''This year’s cohorts are focusing on three major themes to pursue innovation and entrepreneurship at Lingnan University, which are students’ and faculty members’ Mental Health, Cultural Inclusiveness, and to help our Lingnan members to improve our school’s catering quality. We hope that our actions could help and support the members in Lingnan.''
==== Hug a Puppy Day ====
To raise awareness of students’ mental health and relieve the stress amongst all members at Lingnan University, we have planned to do a Hugging Day to comfort everyone but with a twist! We will invite therapy dogs from our local community to be our guest huggers. We hope to provide a comfort zone for students to relax with all the cuteness and fluffiness of therapy dogs and tackle the academic stress accumulated during their studies. There would be counsellors from the counselling team to chat with you, and they might give you some tips on relieving your stress too! If we are lucky, we might even have our residence therapy dog at school with us.
==== Careers Across Cultures (Talk Series) Crafts Around the World====To introduce students to various work cultures worldwidepromote cultural inclusiveness in the campus as well as to bridge the gap between international and local students, we plan to hold a talk workshop series where students will learn how to make crafts from different parts of the world. In this activity we invite professionals emphasis peer teaching. This means that instead of different cultural backgrounds inviting experienced or master handicrafters to teach our students by inviting a local or international student or students to share a popular craft from their country and talk about their career experiences as well as do a demonstration on how the working environment to make it in their own countries differs from that front of Hong Kongother students. The talk We believe that peer learning is designed a great way to be interactive, including activities for increase interaction among local and international students to participate in and a Q&A session. Students can They’d also stay behind after get to learn about each talk to do networkingother’s cultures in the process.
==== Opinion Booth on Canteen Menu ====
In order to improve the quality of meals for employees and students, we plan to launch a collection of offline and online opinions. The purpose is to integrate the collected opinions and communicate with the canteen company to modify the existing menu so that the variety and price of the menu are more suitable for the needs of employees and students. We hope to build such a communication platform to jointly improve the campus life experience of staff and students and to convey the collected views to the university's stakeholders.
==== Food Cards @ Lingnan ====
To tackle the low efficiency of food ordering in the Lingnan Canteen and eventually enhance the overall catering quality, we plan to implement a food card scheme in the canteen to say goodbye to long queues. We no longer need long waits to order tour meals and save you time by combining our Lingnan student id card with a money deposit function that may even allow us to have a new payment method around the whole campus. We hope that launching our food card will have more accessible repair contacts within the campus and increase our sense of belonging at school. No more worries that your Octopus deposit card couldn’t be reloaded on campus, your food card does!<br />
'''Survey with Lucky Draw via Mass Email'''[[File:Survey Poster.png|thumb|388x388px|Online Survey with Lucky Draw|link=Special:FilePath/Survey_Poster.png]]To understand students' needs in life planning support, we have conducted a survey mainly ask about their satisfaction in the current status, whether they have a dream and whether the school's resource is effective. The survey was sent to the whole school by '''Lingnan Entrepreneurship and Innovation (LEI)''' department on behalf of University Innovation Fellows (UIF). A lucky draw with ten HK$50 supermarket coupons was given as incentives for the students. We used the mass email as an opportunity to promote University Innovation Fellows and our mission as well. It also served as an educational purpose where students can reflect a bit about their lives before our official functions.
