"It was an honor and a pleasure to host USJ rector Fr. François Boëdec, to reaffirm the longstanding partnership between AUB and USJ. At a time when Lebanon needs hope and solutions, the enduring relationship between our institutions demonstrates the power of cooperation in education, research, and nation-building. I look forward to many more opportunities for collaboration between the two landmark educational institutions of Lebanon in the years to come."

The role of education is to humanize, not merely professionalize.
In the latest President’s Perspective, President Fadlo R. Khuri reflects on the deeper purpose of education: cultivating empathy, critical thinking, and a shared sense of humanity.
