Largest women university
It is heartening to learn that the world's largest university exclusively for women has been opened in Riyadh, KSA. Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques King Abdullah inaugurated the SR-20-billion Princess Nora bint Abdulrahman University (PNU) on May 15, 2011. With a capacity to enroll about 50,000 students, the PNU is the biggest women-only university which is indeed a symbol of women education and participation in the nation building process. Equipped with all the modern and digital facilities, the PNU is expected to impart higher education to the Saudi women and women from other Muslim countries. While sincerely appreciating King Abdullah's vision, I wish PNU's great success towards accomplishing its noble mission.
