“In the arena of human life, the honors and rewards fall to those who show their good qualities in action.” — Aristotle<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Recognizing the good qualities and remarkable academic achievements of students hailing from various schools in Karachi, Habib University held its 4th Annual Meritorious Awards<\/em> on February 3, 2017. The ceremony continued its tradition of rewarding talent and skills by identifying noteworthy students from selected schools who represent a dedication to excellence, a passion for learning, and a deep respect for their surroundings. <\/p>\n

Speaking about the inspiration behind organizing Meritorious Awards each year, Director Admissions, Ms. Yasmeen Bano remarked, \u201cI believe that a good university cannot work successfully unless it establishes relationships with the high school community. The University needs to work closely with high schools, learn from each other, share learning resources, identify the talent and help them grow collaboratively. And Meritorious Awards ceremony is just one way of doing it.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThe real purpose is to create a connection between the University and higher educational institutions and their students so that they can come and visit our campus, explore and become aware of the tremendous opportunities that are available at hand in their very own country,\u201d said Mr. Mohsin Rizvi, Head of Student Marketing and Recruitment, while adding to Ms. Bano\u2019s comments. <\/p>\n

Starting off with the presentation of awards to the deserving students, the event\u2019s itinerary included some truly inspiring speeches by the president and some of the faculty members.<\/p>\n

Congratulating the high achievers, Mr. Wasif Rizvi, President at Habib University said, \u201cThese young minds being present here have achieved an important milestone with distinction in their lives and essentially opened an important set of possibilities for themselves. You all are witnessing the mission statement of Habib University here, which says that your worth is in your YOHSIN. Now one of the first words we have used to translate YOHSIN<\/strong><\/a> is excellence so you must have demonstrably shown excellence in at least one aspect of your life, that is, you have done very well in a very serious examination, and therefore, let me say congratulations!\u201d<\/p>\n
