Announcement from the Student Stadium Committee Our brothers, students (male and female), The circumstances sweeping the stadium at the present time require comprehensive organization and reform, and continuous determination to advance it and raise it to the appropriate status as a high-level institution. This depends on your efforts, oh students, because the stadium is owned by everyone, and everyone enjoys spending playtime in it. Its contents belong to you and its furniture is your property. Therefore, we are hopeful that you will preserve all its contents and observe its regulations. Dear students, The establishment of our committee was for the purpose of serving you, because no group can perform any work, especially organized work like activities at the stadium, without organization. Therefore, we have set the goals of our student committee on the basis of cooperation with the Stadium Committee and its management to ensure the interest of the students themselves. Observing the laws and obeying the regulations is one of the qualities of a sophisticated society, and obeying regulations does not mean submission. For we all know that matters become chaotic without organization and without laws. Therefore, all members of our committee offer their services to advance student activities and aim to improve their situation, and this committee at the same time urges students to abandon incorrect behaviors and cooperate with the committee. Consequently, we are all confident that you will respond to our call to serve the public interest. Naouma D.
