AUK welcomes Intensive English Program Students
The Intensive English Program (IEP) at American University of Kuwait had a short orientation for its 230 newly registered students to help familiarize them with the campus. Orientation started off with a check in and picture taking for IDs in front of the Liberal Arts Building's Auditorium. At 10 am AUK President Dr. Winfred Thompson gave a short speech welcoming the new IEP students to AUK. A series of short speeches were then delivered by Dean of Student Affairs Dr. Carol Ross, Mr. Stephen Jacques, Mr. Michael McMurray, Mrs. Rebecca Loomis, Mr. Damian Medina , Ms Joanne Hands, and Dr. James McDougal introducing students to faculty and staff and informing the students about what to expect and which services are available to students. After the speeches students and faculty had a group photo taken. Then the students were off on a library tour and a campus tour. The orientation ended at noon in the Multi-Purpose Room with a sit down dinner for everyone in IEP to enjoy.
