Farewell Dinner with US MBA students

We bade US students farewell yesterday for their last day of China/Hong Kong study program, and joined dinner with them at Watermark which is a harbour-front restaurant at Central Pier no. 7 with a stunning view of Victoria Harbour. We took a coach together at L'Hotel CWB Harbourview Hotel at 7:00pm and then transferred to Pier no. 7. There were 3 long tables for 38-40 persons. We had great conversation about the Iowa campus, career prospects, experience sharing and networking. We were also happy to learn that, despite the recent weak economy in US, the majority of our Iowa full-time MBA students would graduate in May this year but already got job offers from the big firms, such as AEGON, United Airlines, Johnson and Johnson and many more. Everyone enjoyed the dinner. Yeah! The foods were great, especially the steak was so declicious but the portion was small. After dinner, we went to Stormies Bar at LKF for drinks and spent an enjoyable evening till mid-night.
