A New Mission for Open Dialogue with Non-Christians in Higher Education Today

Will our Christian colleges in Asia serve as possible venues for the cultivation of communication and understandings among people of different cultures? This is the issue addressed in this paper and the author attempts to give a report of the work of Chung Chi College overall, with special reference to her distinctive contribution as a Christian college in Hong Kong, China, and its Asian contexts. As a Christian college, Chung Chi College has found herself serving not only as a light to the gentiles but also as "a bridge" between the Eastern and Western cultures, between Christianity and other religious traditions.
