Ibrahim's Message

Moving On!

06/04/08. My spring semester ended successfully in May, and I also received my certificate for participating in the Leadership Certification Program at University of Baltimore (UB). But then within two weeks, I returned to university to take three hefty summer classes. I am already feeling the heat as a consequence. 

In a separate development, I would like to thank UB's president, Robert L. Bogomolny, for his recent letter congratulating me for being elected as Vice President for Communications at the university's Student Events Board (SEB).

On May 16, I attended a two-day Transition Retreat in St. Michael's, Maryland.  The Student Government Association of UB, alongside the SEB, came together, among other things, to formulate new strategies/policies and calendar for the 2008/09 academic year. The Retreat was an accomplishment, and my Communications Team and I are posed to contribute significantly to the welfare of the entire student body during the upcoming academic year. 

I also attended UB's Annual Merit Awards Banquet at Belvedere Hotel, Baltimore. Congratulations to all award recipients, especially Simon Fong, outgoing president of the SEB.

Let me also congratulate all UB students who graduated on May 21, especially Mesfin Mulat and Jackie Stanton (president of Kappa Beta Delta, Alpha Omicron Chapter). Congratulations also to all my friends who graduated from Baltimore City Community College on May 31. I wish you all the best in your future endeavors.
