Chancello's Challenge Shield

Interested students, please approach me to sign up.

Chancellor’s Challenge Shield (CCS) is an annual event organized by the CCS sub-committee under NUSPA. This event was inaugurated and formally endorsed in July 1992 by the late Dr Wee Kim Wee, former President of the Republic of Singapore and then Chancellor of NUS.

It is of great importance to promote political awareness amongst the undergraduates as well as the younger group of students. CCS seeks to encourage youths to keep up with current affairs and understand the importance of being a well-informed member of society through a series of challenging and interactive quizzes and games.
