Dr Waterbury added:

'I know that Dr. Nuwayhid will take the teaching, research and service activities of FHS to new heights, and I know you all join me in congratulating him on his appointment as dean. I would also like to take this opportunity to thank again Dean Huda Zurayk for all of her achievements as dean.
