My Professors Made Me Believe
Suhair, Bethlehem University Class of 2024
Suhair’s professors, themselves Bethlehem University alumni, made her believe she could have an experience like theirs of her own. Today she is a master’s and Ph.D. candidate at Georgetown University. This Giving Tuesday help provide scholarships for students at Bethlehem University like her. Every gift is matched, up to $20,000.
Many of us can name the person who believed in us in our youth, some back when we were eighteen or twenty-two and unsure what lay ahead.
For Suhair, it was her professors at Bethlehem University. When she was first turned down for a summer internship in the United States, the University office responsible encouraged her to reapply. Her professors shared what their own time abroad had meant to them, and “made me believe that perhaps I could have one of my own.”
Today she is a candidate for an M.A. in Arab Studies and a Ph.D. in Government at Georgetown University. Looking back, she says, “there will always be good people who can support me with something as simple as telling me, ‘You will make it.'”
