OUTLINE - Notre Dame University

It
was a great pleasure for
the editorial staff of
NDU Spirit to receive the second
issue of Northern Star
coming from NDU North
Lebanon Campus. We highly
appreciate the moral and cultural
values expressed in
Desiderata, A Vision for the
Future and Culture. There is an
excellent article illustrated in
colour about Aikido by Paul
Kadissi sensei, who insists on
the essential moral and educative
nature of the martial arts.
All the great masters of Judo
and Karate also have emphasised
that the martial arts have

Dlala El-Souri’s photography

to student opinion. We would
like to point out that here at
NDU Spirit we would eagerly
welcome letters of opinion
and comments on articles,
reserving only the editorial
right to answer.
We draw attention to the
lyrics of Thoughts of Light by
NDU-NLC student Jonah
Tebaa, performed by Karin
Moumdian to music by Walid
el-Massih. This won second
prize at a competition held in
Peak Hall on February 8th to
choose between 25 anti-drug
video clips. It is played regularly
on Radio One 105.5 FM.
There are some short contributions
in Arabic. The publicity
on the last page sets an
example of good taste. – Ed.
