Question and Advice

[edit]

First, you appear to be wondering why you had to create two nearly identical drafts. The answer is that you didn't, and you confused yourself as a result. Second, in view of the very small amount of information that you provide, my own thought would be that a stand-alone article is not warranted, and that your information should be added to City University of Hong Kong. Third, my advice to you is to ask for help at the Teahouse. Robert McClenon (talk) 16:47, 26 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

CityU MFA, the Master of Fine Art (MFA) program in Creative Writing at City University of Hong Kong (2010-2015), is the first low residency MFA program focused on Asian writing in English. [1]

Establishment

CityU MFA was founded by writer Xu Xi in 2010 as part of the Department of English at City University of Hong Kong. Graduated from the MFA program for Poets and Writers at the University of Massachusetts, Xu Xi was a rare Asian student in the program. When she taught in the Fine Arts’ MFA residency program at Vermont College, Xu Xi’s international background attracted students from Asia and Europe into her mentorship. This sent a strong signal that the time had come for an Asia specific MFA program in English. [2] In the summer of 2010, the first cohort of the MFA writers met in City University’s campus in Kowloon, Hong Kong.[3]


Curriculum

The program recruited in the following three genres: Fiction, Creative Non-Fiction (CNF) and Poetry, and required students to complete two summer residencies, three mini-residencies in Fall and Spring, and four individualized distance mentoring semesters throughout their two years’ study.[4] During residencies (up to and including 2015), students of 21 nationalities from 17 countries met their writing faculty at City University’s campus in Kowloon, Hong Kong. The faculty members were full time writers and faculty from writing programs mainly in the United States of America, Canada, the United Kingdom, and Australia.[5]

Each day of residency was fully scheduled with Writing Workshops in the morning, lunch/dinner lectures delivered either by writers-in-residence or visiting writers such as Pulitzer-winning novelist Junot Díaz and Poet Richard Blanco,[6] Reading Like A Writer in the afternoon, and literary readings in the evenings. The last evening of each residency is dedicated to student reading, organized by student volunteers.

Departure from their residencies in Hong Kong marked the start of individualized distance mentoring semesters. Students and faculty mainly communicated via the Internet: creating and approving semester plans, submitting and commenting on portfolios, and evaluating semester experiences. In order to graduate, students were required to earn 45 credits.

The program also offered post MFA creative writing workshops and individualized distance mentoring to alumni and other MFA degree holders.[7] [8][9]

Closure

The newly appointed Acting Head of the Department of English from a public policy and administration background, Hon Chan, announced the termination of the MFA program on March 2, 2015. The reason offered for closure was the program’s unsustainable financial ability, although there had been no attempt to contact or consult with the program leader Xu Xi. Yet on March 24, the university senate estimated a profit from the program for 2014-2015 based on the budget approved by former acting head of the English Department Rodney Jones. Xu Xi, the MFA program leader, reported the program had achieved financial self-sustenance as of 2015. [35]

The University’s official notification of the closure was published on April 27, 2015, via an email stating that the program was no longer financially viable. [36]

The program’s external examiner Shawn Wong from University of Washington questioned City University’s financial report because it showed that the Finance Office had “retroactively created new expenses for the program to pay years after the expenses were settled.” [37]

On April 30, 25 Internationally renowned writers protested against the university’s decision, asking the university’s President Way Kuo, Provost Arthur Ellis and Chairman Hu Shao-ming to re-open the program. [38]

On May 3, 97 alumni and students requested to meet with the university’s senior officials for reconsideration of the closure.[39]

The university’s officials agreed to meet with protest representatives, all the while not budging from their decision to axe the program.[40]

International Criticism

File:Save CityU MFA
Student Protest

On April 29, 2016, two days after the announcement to terminate the CityU MFA program was made, US Pulitzer Prize winners Junot Díaz, Rae Armantrout, and Robert Olen Butler, signed a petition letter to the President, Provost, and Chairman of the Council of the City University of Hong Kong, expressing concerns of the university’s decision to close the program and asking the school to reconsider the closure. Twenty two other authors who also signed the letter are Jess Row (USA), Tabish Khair (India/Denmark), Nami Mun (USA), Evan Fallenberg (Israel), Robin Hemley (Singapore), Jose Dalisay (Phillipines), Suzanna Paola (USA), Shawn Wong (USA), Marilyn Chin (USA), Luis Francia (USA), James Scudamore (UK), Ravi Shankar (USA), Tina Chang (USA), Bob Shacochis (Pulitzer Prize finalist, USA), Ira Sukrungruang (USA), Sybil Baker (USA), Sharmistha Mohanty (India), Madeleine Thien (Canada), Chang-rae Lee (USA), Richard Blanco (US Inaugural Poet, 2012, USA), Richard Jackson (USA), Rawi Hage (Canada). [41] Altogether fifty-eight writers signed the petition delivered to university officials.[42]

These writers petitioned that the university offered no convincing explanation for the program’s closure. Instead, the MFA program had increased the university’s international visibility through its low residency model, recruiting students of 21 nationalities from 17 countries, which therefore strengthened Hong Kong’s influence on the global literature and arts arena.[43] [44]

On April 30, students and alumni of the MFA program formed a Facebook page called “Save CityU MFA” to protest the university’s decision to close the program. [45]

A clear connection has been inferred between the shutdown of the MFA program and the Umbrella Movement of September to December 2014 . [46]

Numerous CityU MFA writers published essays in support of the Occupy Central movement to counter Xi Jinping’s government that imperiled the existing freedom of speech in Hong Kong.These essays hardened the university’s resolve that the program should not enroll further students from 2015 indefinitely. [47]

City University remained in lockstep position with Beijing by appointing communist party officials to lead the school council. [48]
