Borrell was impressed by the degree that the university has reached in the field of scientific research and innovations, which are carried out by students and researchers, as they hold a correct view of the future and creativity that creates development in countries. I also came out with the conviction that such universities are the ones that should be the capital for crystallizing ideas and strategies for the interest of peoples. I found him loving the one Mediterranean family, the common community idea, as well as the rich civilizational, historical, cultural, and linguistic heritage that unites us.

We were also happier when we, members of the University Board of Directors have a side talk with the High Representative of the European Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy on the fringe of the lecture. ![]() The visions of these people reflected the breadth of their knowledge and their familiarity with the strategic facts despite their young age They represent the future's elites and carry a new perception of the regional system and how the relations between the North and the South should be, especially as we know more about the countries of the North than what the countries of the North know about the South… ![]() In my capacity as a founding member and a member of the university’s board of directors, and a professor of strategy and international relations, I was very pleased with the High Representative of the European Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy’s visit, and I was more pleased with the conversation that took place between him and university students from Morocco, Africa, and the Arab and Mediterranean regions. Speaking about human capital, the European official underlined the need to give more attention to the younger generations and invest more in education, adding that "human capital is the most important capital." In his lecture, the High Representative of the European Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy also focused on the health crisis of COVID-19, in light of the recent rise of infection cases in China, the wave of drought and floods, and their negative effects on many regions in the world, as well as the high number of refugees, and the war situation in other regions around the world.

Some students told The Herald that Sidechat seemed more popular in the underclassmen population. The Herald was unable to reach Flower Ave for comment. Mikael Obiomah ’25, another student contracted to help launch Sidechat at the University, said the app received “hundreds of signups” during the first day of promotion, which was conducted at tables around campus offering free cookies.Īccording to Sidechat’s Terms of Use, the application is run by Flower Ave Inc., a mobile app studio based in New York City. Only students attending a college where Sidechat has been launched can create, read and comment on posts, he added. So far, the Sidechat app has been launched for specific schools, including private universities such as Harvard, Princeton and Tufts, Monford said. “I don’t like scrolling through 20 sexual jokes,” she said.Ĭontent on Sidechat is moderated, meaning that posts must follow company guidelines, according to Monford. “When you give people an anonymous platform, it's just like setting the stage for … toxicity that would otherwise not happen,” said Chas Steinbrugge ’24, who runs the Instagram page Steidley ’23 MPH ’24 added that posts on the platform are often obscene. But Sidechat’s anonymous nature also has a “divisive” side in that it “is used by people to say things they wouldn't say to someone face-to-face,” he added. Henry Niehaus ’25 added that the app is an “interesting way” to keep up with classmates. “It’s always funny … to poke fun at things from anonymity,” he added.
