Book Description
My little book concerns the alarming status quo of higher learning at the American University of Beirut. Between its two covers, it comprises my correspondences with the officials at the American University of Beirut, otherwise referred to as the AUB.
Established in 1966, AUB has now reached a stage of collapse and decadence. My emails, included here, were sent to the Chairman of the English Department, my thesis supervisor, the President of the University, the Provost, the Dean of Arts and Sciences, the Chairman of the Board of Trustees, and a professor at the English Department.
As it is clear in the responses I received to my emails, the university did not move one step forward to address my grievances. I have elaborated on the injustice inflicted on me, while these concerned officials showed sheer indifference and utter irresponsibility. I have thus entitled my book due to my belief that AUB has deviated far from its statement of mission calling for excellence in education, participation in the advancement of knowledge and serving the peoples of the Middle East.
The university’s belief in encouraging freedom of thought and expression has been shattered and utterly destroyed through the practices if its low- caliber professors, nationals, non- Americans, and Americans.
Yet, the disappointment is really caused by those American who have been behaving on campus the way masters run their colonies. I thought that by appealing to the Chairman of the Board of Trustees Phillip Khoury, to the President Peter Dorman, to the Provost Ahmad Dallal, and to the Dean of Arts and Sciences Patrick McGreevy, they would fairly look into the case and save me from the orchestrated plot of three professors who abused their power and my rights, namely Professor Sirene Harb, Professor Robert Myers, and Professor David Wrisley of English Department at AUB.
The following correspondences will reveal to the reader to what extent all of the above are dwelling in ivory towers of academia, camouflaged by their papers and conferences on gender, orientalism, equality, imperialism, and above all, human rights to which they think they subscribe and contribute.
My book is self-explanatory and a sign of the failure of liberal education on a campus that was always thought of as the lighthouse to Arab generations and beyond. I am saying that AUB has painted my pink future grey in grey and that applies, without exception, to all those of my generation. But, when the statement of mission is betrayed, none is saved.
