accidents. As solutions he proposed<br />
improvement of roads and of<br />
means of transport (cars, motorcycles,<br />
etc.), more means of protection<br />
(seat belts, radars, surveillance<br />
equipment), drawing the attention<br />
of municipal councils and family<br />
groups and clubs for support, alerting<br />
the Army and Security Forces,<br />
and instituting a programme of<br />
road awareness in schools.<br />
Perhaps the most important measure<br />
was the avoidance of alcohol<br />
intake and consequent drunken<br />

HONOURED<br />
On February 7th , 2003, NDU<br />
President Father Boutros Tarabay<br />
presided a meeting with the directors<br />
of schools invited by NDU<br />
Shouf Campus who were advising<br />
their pupils about joining the<br />
<strong>University</strong>. After welcoming those<br />
present, he expressed the view that<br />
the existence of the Campus in the<br />
mountain region was a service to<br />
education and to Lebanon.<br />
He then insisted on the need for<br />
interaction between the <strong>University</strong><br />
and the community, pointing out<br />
that the unique purpose of the former<br />
was to raise the level of education<br />
and learning. The Father<br />
President was followed by Dr.<br />
Fouad Shadid, who spoke about the<br />
Faculty of Science, and by Mr. Farid<br />
Haikal, in charge of the Admissions<br />
Office. Mr. Haikal gave details about<br />
the conditions necessary for registration<br />
in the <strong>University</strong> and Mr. Fady<br />
Khoury then spoke about the<br />
Department of Continuing<br />
Education, which was intended to<br />
serve people of all levels of education.<br />
Finally there was friendly discussion<br />
about various questions concerning<br />
the education offered by the<br />
<strong>University</strong>, with a number of proposals<br />
being noted for consideration.<br />
Hope was expressed for future<br />
contacts between the <strong>University</strong><br />
and the directors of schools in the<br />
interests of the students.<br />
