The Hong Kong University Students’ Union publication, Undergrad, has officially ceased operations after 74 years of service. Founded in 1952, it was one of the city's most enduring campus news outlets.

The closure of Undergrad underscores ongoing challenges related to student engagement and the recruitment of new members for editorial roles. These issues have become increasingly pronounced in recent years.

As the landscape of student media continues to evolve, the end of Undergrad raises questions about the future of campus journalism and the ability of student organizations to adapt to changing circumstances.
