HOT DOG Day on 17th March
HOT DOG Day on 17th March
As per tradition, the Multicultural Ambassadors organized the HOT DOG day on 17th March to raise students’ awareness of the International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination (IDERD). Activities such as pledge taking, performances, student-run stalls and of course free flow of hot dogs and Mac N Cheese were there to reinforce the message of “I will stop RACIAL DISCRIMINATION in my generation”. Our Equal Opportunities Commission (EOC) counterparts and University of Hong Kong researchers were left dazzled and mind-boggled with the diversity ambience that have captivated them in the lunch activity.
Perhaps, you might also be wondering what the relationship between HOT DOG day and IDERD is at this point. Few years back, we wanted to make IDERD as part of students’ vocabulary bank and thought of coming up with something more relevant to them and found the HOT DOG acronym which stands for Hit Out The Discrimination in Our Generation would be a best recall. Hence, if you hear happy HOT DOG Day next time when you visit us, it is IDERD and don’t forget the hot dog!
