    Celebrating Collaboration with an Inspiring Response to NECHE Accreditation Efforts

    In recognition of the invaluable time and insights Dr. Elie Badr devoted to guiding us through the journey of pursuing NECHE accreditation, the RHU President sent a heartfelt thank-you letter. Dr. Badr responded with a touching message of gratitude that truly inspired our community, reminding us all of the power of collaboration and the impact of shared knowledge. Together, we are building a brighter future through dedication and support! 

     

    Dr. Elie Badr's response: 

    "I appreciate your thank-you letter and also Mrs. Hariri's support. I have always admired the late Prime Minister’s efforts for the betterment of this country, and I feel that my contribution to a university that bears his name is minimal in comparison."

     

    RHU President's thank you message:

     

    On behalf of the Chairperson of the Board of Trustees of Rafik Hariri University (RHU) Mrs. Nazek Rafik Hariri, and on behalf of the RHU family, I am writing to thank you for accepting our invitation to address the RHU community on NECHE accreditation matters.

     

    This year, RHU celebrates its 25th anniversary. On this occasion, we are extremely delighted that you have accepted to share with us your know how on the New England Commission of Higher Education (NECHE) accreditation standards. 

     

     

    Your reputation precedes you. Within the Lebanese academic circles, you are known as the Father of NECHE; a relentless advocate committed to transforming the quality of education in our beloved country. My friend, you have succeeded in your mission. We are eager to learn from your expertise in academic and best business practices to enable our university join the league of NECHE-accredited institutions. 

    Thank you for accepting our invitation and sharing your valuable tips and strategies. 

    Your presentation was well received, effectively engaging the audience and stimulating interest in self-improvement and renewal. 

     

    Thank you for being a friend of our university. I am truly proud of you. Listening to you was so uplifting and satisfying. You are an inspiration to all of us.

    I appreciate you addressing the RHU community.

     

    Regards,

    Said M. Ladki,

    President
