Following consultation with RCN, Carlos Escobar invited our new Rektor, Guðmundur (currently working at Brighton College Al Ain), to an alumni gathering at New York University Abu Dhabi last week. In the picture, from left to right, are:
1. Nghiem Huynh (RCN ’12 – ’14) – Vietnam; 2. Mariana Arrieta (RCN ’14 – ’16) – Venezuela; 3. Emil Goldsmith Olesen (RCN ’12 – ’14) – Denmark; 4. Bassel Abifaraj (RCN ’95 – ’97) – Lebanon; 5. Boyan Stoychev (RCN ’11 – ’13) – Bulgaria; 6. Ilma Jahovic (RCN ’12 – ’14) – Bosnia and Herzegovina; 7. Leonore Wunsche (RCN ’12 – ’14) – Germany; 8. Daniel Rey (RCN ’14 – ’16) – Colombia; 9. Carlos Escobar (RCN ’12 – ’14) – El Salvador; 10. Jigna Sampat (RCN ’96 – ’98) – India.
RCN, coordinated by Arne Osland (Director of Development) and Mostak Rahman (Alumni and Development Officer) has in recent years set up a series of events for engagement with alumni both on and off campus. We hope the NYUAD event is the first of many engagements for Guðmundur with our UWC RCN alumni.
