"Losers" You Are Infected

Post under opinion On 8:19 PM Send Via Student Eye

by: Bahman A. Hassan

My first semester at AUI, S started with a quite interesting orientation event. We all met in a small lecture room and a big guy with a more CIA-like face came forward to welcome us. That big guy was James Harriagan. He forgot to welcome us, because he interested more in insulting us- still many follow his footmark.

He started by complaining about plagiarism. Harrigan argued that plagiarism was and is “part of” the region’s “culture”. For him, plagiarism was “another frontier” which needed “direct U.S. involvement”. Unlucky Harrigan failed to fight back and teach “Iraqi future leaders” not to plagiarize. Despite what he did, plagiarism continued to PROSPER.

His successors came up with more tech-based fantasy solutions, yet they failed to uproot plagiarism in the mind of “multi-Iraq future spearheads”. Plagiarism remained to be discussed. But “it appears” that this semester is the “anti- plagiarism campaigns” are stopped. None of my “professors” has mentioned plagiarism

(PROBABLY THE CULTURE IS DEAD OR OUT OF CONTROL).

THEY SHOULD NOT GET TIRED SO SOON.

NOW to the fun part! AUI, S failed to “combat” plagiarism. Ironically, WE HAVE TAUGHT AUI,S to plagiarize. Copying others works without permission of the author is the most admired definition of plagiarism at AUI, S. Based on this definition, AUI, S, from top to bottom, is “guilty of committing plagiarism”. For Harrigan, there was eleven commandments instead of ten, and the eleventh one was, “THEE SHALL NOT PLAIGRIZE”.

Now, AUI, S is not only losing plagiarism frontier, yet people of the PRESIDENCY are plagiarizing- “lossers” as my professor usually call us. If you pay a visit to the book store, you can get copies of any book you want- isn’t that plagiarism? Recently AUI, S due to unclear reasons, has started copying copyrighted books. If you pay a visit to the BOOK STORE (THIS SHOULD BE CALLED ILLIGAL COPYING STORE) you will see piles of books have been copied by the university staff. This comes as an effort to cover the delay of receiving the original books.

After four weeks the “books are not all in” (meaning in the book store not somewhere else). According to the JOCKS we have heard, the books are on vacation. Last week, AUI, S books were in Iran for a short while (May be Romney has sent them there to salute Khamnai). Then they disappeared. Ironically, they again showed up in Arbil, but they didn’t stay there too long. PAUSE,

YOU MAY LAUGH OR CURSE IF YOU WANT TO. YOU HAVE THE STAGE FOR A WHILE.

Oh boy,

NOW, Far From Plagiarism. I used to know a GIRL, but recently I found OUT she is “Having AN (PLURAL) affair with an instructor”- Mr. Gresk may see this as libel, BUT sorry EVEN YOU ARE TRYING TO PROVE THIS. GOOD LUCK….IF YOU want conduct an investigation on this, I am interested- KEEP me Up dated.

What Do You See?

This photo is taken by the American University of Iraq, Sulaimani’s staff. The gentleman in this photo is Paul Sutphin, the Consul General of the United States, and it is taken when he was at AUI, S. Our comment is not on his angelic smile, but we rather want to have you to think with us about few points.

Look at nothing, but at the Consul’s hands. What is he holding?

Here are few hints: AUI, S Admission Guidance.

I. The AUI, S...It is without the comma between the “I” and the “S”

II. A bit below, you see Bryan Smith. What does that remind you of? Why did AUI, S dismiss him? What justifications did they give? Did anyone believe them? Why did he say " I know a lot with which I can close this institution" before his departure. What did he know but we don't know?

III. There is only Arabic on the Admission Guidance. What does it mean? Probably ….

IV. It is out dated. One of the students shown on the cover is dismissed. Two others of them, at the top, are graduated. They don’t represent AUI, S- at all.

V. Check carefully, you can see more.

Oh boy we are very zol.

Evaluate Mr. Geoffrey Gresk

Mr. Geoffrey Gresk got his M.P.H. at the Johns Hopkins University, and he successfully got his B.S. at the Grand Valley State University.

Mr. Gresk joined the American University of Iraq Sulaimani in 2009, and, at the first place, he taught level 1 of what was called "EWPI" Program.

His capabilities made the administration rethink of his position, so now he teaches Comparative Environmental Policy at the Academic Program.

Besides teaching, Mr. Gresk is leading the Academic Integrity Office at the American University of Iraq Sulaimani.

Fun with AUIS

On 9:16 PM Send Via Student Eye

Mr. Asitos

AUIS has started copying the books that are on the way. Asitos: “That’s plagiarism; we will send them to Mr. Geoff.”

After a long meeting AUIS community has decide to close the stairs of the left doors, for students will walk to the MR. MANGERS’s door in order to see and investigate them whether they are students. And according to the same rule, the doors will be closed after 11 pm. Asitos: “He is new, after one more month, the manger will come back after 11 pm.”

After thinking over the summer break, AUIS has made another decision; no students will allow riding the bus unless they show their University ID to the bus driver. Asitos: “we want to make sure if there is a terrorist!”

Asitos wrote in his diary “I swear, I swear and I swear AUIS will provide students with the new dorms for the coming semester.”

Asitos has a teacher whose eyes are on the clock in the left side of the room, and Asitos has suggested to move the clock from the left side to the back of the room, for Mr. ---- s’ eyes will rest for a while.

One of the Asitos’ teachers told him that he does not have to care about homework until the books will arrive. Asitos: “So, be sure that the books will never arrive, but we have two options; we can COPY them, or forget about H.W!”

AUIS has replaced Azad Ali with a new faculty who is as sweet as honey. Asitos: “he is so cute though, and I pray for him to be blessed by the Almighty.”

Asitos has a teacher who will never let her students fall into a sleep in the class because she tells great jokes. Asitos: “She is fine because she has only five students; I doubt even Einstein can manage a 1:30 minutes class with five students!!!!”

Asitos’s lab teacher practices her English even outside of the class. Asitos “Good, practicing English is always a good thing to do.”

An Asitos’s friend decided to boycott the cafeteria because the prices

are different from one person to another. Asitos” Don’t waste your time; you can either eat or shut up.”

Harming and Breaking Facilities at the University

On 5:28 PM Send Via Student Eye

Despite criticizing the university for the rooms have to be improved, we have to acknowledge that there are some mistakes done by the students.

Unfortunately, today, I was provided that some students broke different things, such as holders in the WCs. I was not quite sure until I saw them on my eyes.

I was surprised by seeing such things done by our students. I believe that our students are much more respectful and trust-worthier than doing such a job. This is not a university student’s job.

I see Iraq and Kurdistan in the hand of our phenomenal students in the future, so how is it possible to see that done by the students?!

We all have to feel responsible for the university’s’ facilities because they belong to us not to anyone else; by hurting them, we hurt ourselves.

We, the students pay a portion of the money which is being spent to build this university, so why do we burn our money by ourselves? Unbelievable!?

The pictures are eyewitnesses:
