To preserve the unusual diversity that exists in the Ras Beirut neighborhood, AUB intends to become more involved in bettering its cultural and intellectual life. This was the promise made by President John Waterbury during a ceremony marking the beginning of the new academic year.
In his address, delivered before a packed Assembly Hall on October 1 and entitled "Going Outside AUB's Walls," the president highlighted the University's positive influence over the entire neighborhood and said it was time AUB took a more active role in the cultural, economic, and intellectual development of Ras Beirut. |
