dc.description	Ladies and Gentlemen, esteemed faculty, proud parents, and most importantly, our new students, Welcome to the American University of Nigeria! My name is Professor DeWayne Frazier and I am one year and three months in the journey of my life serving as the President, as many say the Vice Chancellor, of the American University of Nigeria. This is university is not like other universities and our uniqueness can be heard around the world as recently the U.K. Times Higher Education Impact Study has placed us as one of the top universities in the world, among the top 1,000 out of over nearly 25,000 worldwide. Your AUN, your university, is not ranked top 100 in the world in our commitment to peace making and community service. Please help me in honoring our university with a round of applause.	en_US
dc.description.abstract	Before we get started on this welcome address, let us pause for a moment. The American University of Nigeria is a very closeknit family and each of us are still in shock and mourning at the passing of one of our beloved faculty members. Dr. Hassan Yusuf was one of the pioneering professors of AUN in the field of business and entrepreneurship and even recently moved into the position as interim Dean of the School of Business. On July 28th, the community and I received the heartbreaking news. Please be in deep prayer for his widow and their four beautiful children. Please join me in a moment of silence in honor and memory of our friend, our professor, and mentor, Professor Hassan Yusuf.	en_US
