Zeynub,

Thanks for raising awareness on a constructive project. It`s a noble idea to educate women and equip them with necessary pre-reqs for doing well in life. I do think that after a few years of up and running, the University should open its doors to men. Women have to be educated in a practical and realistic world. There should be no gender segregation in the field of basic or higher education.

Zahra

all i can say is...wow!

sounds remarkably good. just 1 college though but it sets a precedent for future colleges to model themselves after places like these. looks like kamal needs to be invited to pakistan to help out here as well. we need quite a bit of help!

Thanks for the article, Zeynab.

This is an excellent project-some progressives orgs are also in on it.
