The founder Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Arab American University, Dr. Yousef Asfour, visited the University in Jenin, to look over the progress of the construction project for a police station near the university.

Dr. Asfour was accompanied on his tour by the President of the University, Prof. Dr. Ali Zedan Abu Zuhri, the Vice President for Administrative and Financial Affairs, Dr. Bara Asfour, the Vice President for Medical faculties Affairs, Prof. Dr. Muhammad Asia, and the General Manager of the University Company, Mr. Faleh Abu Arrah.

Dr. Yousef Asfour confirmed that the work on the station is proceeding duly and as agreed upon, praising the efforts made. He explained that building a police station near the University means a lot to it, students and the local community surrounding the University, as it contributes to providing security and safety as well as to organize traffic. He stressed that the University does not seek development and excellence only within its walls, but is always working to create development and excellence outside.

Dr. Asfour explained that the importance of establishing this station is to create a safe academic, social and security environment for students and the University, in light of the challenges that the University and its surrounding areas have gone through.

It is noteworthy that the area of the Arab American University Police Station is 310 square meters, located on a land owned by the University with an area of 1000 square meters. The station will be isolated from the University campus, which means that it has independent external gates, and thus it will provide security and protection for the local community surrounding the University, including students, in addition to providing the services available in a police station. The police station will be completed before the beginning of the new academic year in October 2023.
