Dean of Students Mr. Adnan Ramadan and Director of the Athletics Department Mrs. Samar Al-Araj Mousa awarded a number of female students who participated in the Walking Steps Challenge initiative on Thursday, 16 November 2021.

Several female students took part in the initiative this semester and were given medals and certificates of honor for their participation.

The Athletics Department introduced the “Walking Steps Challenge”, which was carried out under the supervision of female athletes, to lead groups of students and their families to walk and monitor step count during the lockdowns of COVID-19. The winners of the challenge are those who ranked highest in terms of number of steps. Mrs. Mousa continued the initiative even after coming back to campus to increase women’s participation in sport at the university and nearby community.
