In my years of teaching, I have found Pakistani students to be bright and hardworking, with many of them genuinely passionate about academic research. Teaching them how to write a strong personal statement/research proposal for graduate admissions is the least I can do.

What a diss(ertation)!

No one has a PhD in anything from Oxford.

[Ateeb Gul @AteebGul]

Lizards.

I mean what’s stopping you from turning you balcony into this 🤌

@akkhan81 Until a couple of years ago, I was a regular reader of Independent Urdu and Daleel (both online). There seemed to be a clear ideological impulse behind both ventures, but the writing was good, they had strong editorial teams, and there were both news and opinion pieces.

The page claiming to be Real Oxford Comma doesn't understand how the real Oxford comma works.

[The Oxford Comma @RealOxfordComma]

Use the Oxford comma, folks.

@SarahShah_85 Bohat bohat mubarak ho, Dr Sarah Shah!

Beautiful, of course! But I have always thought that libraries should not be designed vertically; it makes it seem that knowledge is unattainable. They should be built horizontally; it makes it so that the more you walk by foot, the more you have access to knowledge. #libraries

@minahiljmehdi And the poet Nasir Kazmi's son as Publicity Secretary!

[Ateeb Gul @AteebGul]

That's my whole identity -- it really is!

[Neil Renic @NC_Renic]

NO - ABSOLUTELY NOT!

@MaryamShKhan I too have been working on Islamic law and child marriages in South Asia -- today is indeed a historic day!

[Ateeb Gul @AteebGul]

I have watched almost all of these!

[Ateeb Gul @AteebGul]

@GlobalHigherEd Absolutely! The inadvertent discovery of new books and authors while going through bookshelves is one of life’s greatest joys.

(Coincidentally, I too own *Epigraphy of Makli*, a place close to my heart and the book being one of the heaviest I have had the pleasure to hold.)

@1bdpoem Polychromatism.

[Ateeb Gul @AteebGul]

@drcbjee Offensive and unfunny — and that too on multiple levels!

[Ateeb Gul @AteebGul]

@ccsahner @Autodidation Bevilacqua’s book, definitely — but also a wonderful book by Jan Loop on the orientalist Johann Heinrich Hottinger.
