Inter-University Debate and Competitionfor Reciting Passages from Shakespeare [Archives:2003/641/Education]
The competition was keenly contested and the University of Sana'a got the top honors in both the debate and the competition for reciting passages from Shakespeare. In his address to the guests and the audience, Dr Nasser al-Awlaqy stressed the importance of extra-mural activities such as these for developing the all-round skills of students and stated that these activities have a greater potential for doing so in the context of an inter-university competition. He added that for these reasons these competitions are highly significant. Dr Hussein al-Bakry lauded the efforts of the competitors and added that while the achievements of Yemeni students in English are significant and necessary for the progress of the country, they should continue to give Arabic the importance due to it. Dr Khalid Tamim appreciated the performance of the students in the debate and recitation and their high quality.
The first position in the Debate was bagged by Ahlam Abdul Raheem al-Silwi, a second year student of Sana'a University, and the second position, by Nahla Mohammed Heneiber, also a second year student of Sana'a University. The third position was bagged by Majid Nagi Nasher, a final year student from Ibb University.
In the recitation section, Abdullah Mohammed al-Boheisy, a fourth year Sana'a University student, who recited a speech by Othello, won the first prize. Waseem Abdullah Zuhra, a second year Sana'a University student won the second prize for his performance of a speech by Mark Antony. Neema Ahmed, from Dhammar university, won the third prize for her recitation of two speeches of Lady Macbeth.
