Dr. Marwan Al-Ra’i, Director of the University’s Classification Office, announced on Wednesday that Damascus University ranked 1501+ out of 2,092 universities included in the global ranking. He highlighted that Damascus University is the only Syrian institution that met the required research and specialization criteria to qualify for this ranking.

I imagine this is an interesting/energetic time to be a student here.
The latest fad is a poverty social. Every woman must wear calico,
and every man his old clothes. In addition each is fined 25 cents if
he or she does not have a patch on his or her clothing. If these
parties become a regular thing, says an exchange, won't there be
a good chance for newspaper men to shine?

The Silver State. 1894.
