SMU Arts Fest 2026 is underway! 🎭✨
The festival kicked off with an opening ceremony last Friday celebrating the artists, performers and collaborators bringing this year’s programmes to life.
From the Into the Lore exhibition to Once Upon an Island and ICONS, there is plenty more to experience across our city campus.
Come down and experience SMU Arts Fest across our city campus.

| 2 |  +6For Tan Yi Xuan (Bachelor of Science (Economics), Class of 2026), commitment means showing up consistently and becoming someone others can rely on.
As a Ho Kwon Ping CIRCLE Award recipient, she reflects on saying yes before feeling ready, paying support forward through mentoring, and the community she will carry beyond SMU.
Check out her Faces of SMU (Grad Edition) story. | 438 |
| 3 |  In a Straits Times commentary, Rosie Ching, Principal Lecturer of Statistics from SMU School of Economics, calls for greater dementia literacy before families reach a crisis point.
Drawing on the 2026 Remember.For.Me nationwide survey, she reflects on Singapore’s progress in reducing stigma — and the readiness gaps that remain as the country becomes super-aged.

| 5 |  In a Straits Times commentary, Tan Yi Wen, Senior Research Fellow at SMU’s Centre for Research on Successful Ageing, and his co-author ask whether ageing well is also about who older adults remain connected to.
Drawing on ROSA’s national survey, the commentary reflects on why many older Singaporeans prefer to age in their existing homes — and what this says about familiarity, continuity and intergenerational community.
Explore how community shapes the experience of ageing: https://sgsmu.com/4iqTlO9 | 568 |
| 6 | Could Singapore’s fertility challenge begin before parenthood?
SMU Professor of Sociology (Practice) Paulin Straughan speaks to MONEY FM 89.3 about delayed marriage, the changing cost of parenthood and why financial support may be only one part of making family life more achievable.

Check out her Faces of SMU (Grad Edition) story. | 663 |
| 12 |  The future of cities calls for more than individual solutions. It requires different disciplines and sectors to work through complex urban challenges together.
At World Cities Summit 2026, SMU convened researchers, leaders and partners to connect ideas across climate resilience, urban systems, green finance and responsible AI—and explore how research can inform pathways for action.
Watch how SMU advanced the conversation on the future of cities: https://bit.ly/4qAno8i | 660 |

| 14 |  “How wonderful it would be if I have a chance to do this one day!”
More than a decade ago, Kenny Chng (LLB, Class of 2012) had that thought while watching an SMU professor teach. Today, he is back at the Yong Pung How School of Law as an Associate Professor — and its first graduate to be awarded tenure.
Now on the other side of the seminar room, he hopes to help his own students recognise what they are capable of becoming.

| 18 |  Curiosity over assumption.
At National Junior College’s 2026 Service with Honour Conversation, SMU President Professor Lily Kong encouraged students to approach Southeast Asia with humility and openness — and to learn with, rather than simply about, the region.
It is an approach that resonates with SMU’s emphasis on meaningful regional exposure and learning across different contexts and communities.

| 19 |  SMU Dean of Students Professor Mark Chong sees the university experience as much more than what happens in the classroom.
