He highlighted the importance of equipping students with the ability to distinguish between moderate thought and misconceptions, and of establishing enlightened intellectual approaches as a tool for building the future.
For his part, Dr. Mohamed Hary noted that building a balanced personality begins with instilling the values of responsibility, respect for the law, and preservation of public decorum, stressing that the university student is an ambassador of his educational institution wherever he may be.
In the same context, Dr. Mayada Tharwat addressed the moral and educational dimensions of shaping youth awareness, affirming that adherence to noble ethics and disciplined behavior reflects the individual’s refinement.
The seminar witnessed remarkable engagement and open discussions among students, with constructive dialogue on ways to enhance ethical conduct both inside and outside the university campus.
