This is the website of Michael Ip, the elected graduate student representative in the Academic Council (Nov 2022 – Oct 2023). For updates on my work, please visit My Blog<\/strong><\/a>. For my previous work from Oct 2022 to Jan 2023, you can refer to my Website on Googles Sites<\/strong><\/a>, where you will find my profile and volunteer experiences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I believe community engagement<\/strong> is the essential process for collective well-being and systemic change. It starts with a small community and small tasks. Being an elected student representative, it is also a necessary step to make myself transparent and accountable<\/strong> to my constituency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What will the world be like if our elected political representatives always make themselves responsive and accountable to our concerns?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This website aims at engaging graduate students in the academic governance of the University. Transparency and accountability should be upheld in a small community and the larger society.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

(Most parts of this introduction were published on my LinkedIn <\/a>account on Jan 28, 2023)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My Working Goals (WGs)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

  1. Enhance my transparency to RRU graduate students (WG 1)<\/strong><\/li>
  2. Communicate with graduate students (WG 2)<\/strong><\/li>
  3. Connect with other representatives and student bodies (WG 3)<\/strong><\/li>
  4. Advocate students\u2019 participation in academic governance (WG 4)<\/strong><\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    My Belief<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    “Government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the Earth.” <\/p>Abraham Lincoln<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
