Inauguration Ceremony

10 April 2019

The 18th Inauguration Ceremony marked the ascension of the new cabinet Veritas. The theme for this year was Prudentia, Latin for foresight and sagacity. The ceremony signifies the beginning of a new chapter for AMS, and bears witness to the beginning of a new mooting season.

​

​We would like to express our sincerest gratitude to Professor Shahla Ali, Mr. Philip Dykes S.C., Mr. Wesley Wong S.C., J.P., distinguished guests, and representatives from various student societies for attending the Ceremony. We would also like to thank the Organising Committee members of the Ceremony and the past Executive Committee members for their support, without which the night would not have been possible. 

A Day@HKU 2021 (Law Session)

19 June 2021
​
A Day@HKU (Law Session) was successfully held on 19 June 2021. It is an event specifically designed for 2021 HKDSE students who are interested in studying law and exploring mooting. Yet due to the seriousness of the pandemic, it was held via Zoom this year. The event comprised a mooting trial submission and a sharing from senior law students. Potential law students were acquainted with rudimentary advocacy concepts. It was delightful to see students applying legal reasoning to support their side of submission during the mooting trial. 

​We would like to express our sincerest gratitude to HKU Admissions and Academic Liaison Section and HKU Student Ambassadors for providing our Society with the opportunity to introduce advocacy and mooting skills to potential freshmen.

HKU Legal Academy for the Talented 2021 (AMS Session)

4 August 2021 

The HKU Legal Academy for the Talented 2021 (AMS Session) was successfully held on 4 August 2021. The Event consisted of a sharing by senior mooters, and a mooting competition for Secondary 4 and 5 students interested in reading law at university. The Event aims to convey information about litigation and arbitration, introduce rudimentary legal concepts, as well as providing participants with an opportunity to engage in mooting. It was an absolute delight to see participants applying legal concepts and reasoning to support their arguments during the competition. 

Once again, we would like to extend our gratitude to the HKU Admissions Office for giving AMS this invaluable opportunity to introduce advocacy and mooting to prospective law students.

The Orientation Day is when our Society welcomes freshmen to the Law Faculty. It is comprised of numerous mooting-related games, a mooting trial and a sharing by practicing barristers. The event serves as a platform for freshmen to know more about our Society by providing them with a hands-on experience of mooting as well as equipping them with fundamental law concepts, mooting skills, and insights of the legal profession in both a fun and interactive manner.

​We would like to thank all the freshmen for their enthusiastic support and participation in the Orientation Series over the last two months, which was essential to the success of the event. It was our utmost pleasure to welcome so many new faces into our Society and we look forward to your participation in all our future events.
