Nigerian student at American University of Beirut speaks
When asked what her culture shock was when she first arrived in Lebanon for her studies, Peace Duru, a master's student at the American University of Beirut on a full-ride scholarship, told Legit.ng:
"That is how accomplished yet humble people are around here. The president of the university, the equivalent of a vice chancellor, could casually walk around campus engaging with students without an entourage or security.
"My professors were highly accomplished and well-connected in their fields, but they were very humble, accessible, and always supportive.
"I found that this extends to other professors abroad, which is a far cry from the culture in Nigeria."
