The Accreditation!!!
Post under
opinion
This piece of writing is not an attempt to defame AUI-S reputation rather to make it strong and even more receptive. This piece of writing tells why the full accreditation that was given to AUI-S recently is not going to benefit AUI-S students. I am not trying to pour scorn on the foremost and grandstanding achievement of the AUI-S short history nor underestimate the hard work that was done for the sake of the accreditation. I know that AUI-S bent over backwards to g
et this accreditation, and this actions is contemptible that is why we as AUI-S students acknowledge and appreciate everything was done.
Simple and Straight: Examining the Red Lines
Post under
opinion
Don’t be surprised if I say, sometimes, the root of a deformed image of an institution stems from rumour. Some people don’t dareto write about what they think so then they will form a story, claiming that they can’t write because of such and such punishments. It’s true that in any educational institution of our era, there are some limitations and rules because of the hierarchical nature of such institutions; university is not an exception of course, but do we really have many red lines in our university?

In Praise of Liberal Arts Education...
Post under

We, humans, are adapted to criticize others while we are drawn in our errors. Blaming the others is the best way to hide our dormancy and to fulfill the excuses. However, this is not an attack to criticism and freedom of speech, but a compliment for a better us.
Well Done Dr. Agresto!

July 28, 2010, was one of the happiest days in my life for I got a job after almost a month of looking forward to finding it. I was happy more than any one else because I had planned to do so many things with that small amount of money that I would get via working and to save at least some money for my next year study.

AUI-S Students are Good at Keeping Secrets...

May be most of you did not hear anything about Kanan Makiya’s Republic of Fear. In this book the author analyzes the situation that Iraqis had during Saddam Hussein’s regime. It was an era when every one was afraid of every one, brother of brother, father of his son. Anyway, I think AUIS students are not aware that Saddam’s Iraq is over and still live in the republic of fear. Also, they are afraid to tell their “secrets”.

Freedom of Speech

by Dana Jaf
I am well aware of the fact that the country I am writing in doesn’t have a constitution with a first amendment in it. The same hurting fact applies to my university, because it is the “American University” but wait for it: “of Iraq-Sulaimani”. This land’s rules apply to my cabin-rich university as well.

The voice of AUI-S students is not heard by anyone inside and outside the university. The students are the lastto know about the decisions made and the last to have a say on them. We want to put an end to this
