A Tribute to Generous Alumnus, Hsu Hang-Chien

The Chair of the Department of Banking and Finance, Li Ming-Chi, recently noted: “The construction of a TKU International Conference Center is absolutely necessary – most Taiwanese universities already have international conference centers. TKU also needs a venue for hosting symposiums and receiving visitors. The fundraising process to build such a center becomes much easier if there are specific targets for the collection of funds.” Dr. Li believes that the development of a university is inextricably connected with the amount of funds it receives from its alumni. The more funds an academic department garners from alumni, he explained, the more scholarships it can offer and the better the facilities and equipment it can provide for its students.
