Hong Kong University of students from the interior of China, a limited number of whom might be granted post graduate scholarships tenable in England, the object being to enable specially qualified students to proceed to England for special study and training. His Excellency commended the consideration of a scheme on these lines to Sir Reginald's committee and recommended that if such a scheme were found
practicable steps might be taken to ensure that Hong Kong University got a fair share of any post-graduate scholarships that might be instituted by the China Universities Committee. It was also suggested to Sir Reginald that Lord Lugard's views on the subject might prove to be of much assistance
to the committee.
In conclusion, Sir Reginald undertook to recommend that Hong Kong University should have a representative or
"Corresponding" member on the Corresponding Committee which
he said it was proposed to establish at Peiping to advise
his London Committee. Sir Reginald also undertook to press
upon the attention of his committee the need for obtaining
recognition of Hong Kong University degrees by Universities
in Great Britain because unless this were done the whole
scheme for establishing post-graduate scholarships would be
frustrated. The Vice Chancellor promised to send Sir
Reginald a detailed memorandum on the subject.
