The Arab American University is proud of the success of its students in the competitions of the Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research, which announced its results recently. Students from various universities participated in these competitions, which were held under the slogan “The Roots of the Land (We Will Remain, as Long as Thyme and Olives Remain)”, and the students of the Arab American University won distinguished achievements in several fields.

In the short story competition, student Marah Nidal Hamad starred with her story “Tell me about Al-Safriya”, which won the first place, student Al-Zahraa Naim Abed with her story “From the Memory of the Oak”, which won the sixth place, and student Safana Abdel Nasser Odeh with her story “Nakba Al-Bustan” which won the eighth place.

In the essay competition, the student Dareen Ahmed Abu Zina excelled with her essay “With the Pen We Create Our Dawn”, which won the fifth place among the universities of the country.

These achievements reflect the role of AAUP students in enhancing their presence in the cultural and artistic scene, and indicate the vision of the Deanship of Student Affairs in encouraging excellence and creativity among its students and enabling their participation in the knowledge and cultural production movement of our Palestinian people.

We congratulate our students on these continuous achievements, and we hope that they will continue to give at all levels.
