Saudi Gazette Characteristics of a good university include a warm atmosphere where students can feel at ease and experience an eagerness to attend in order to socialize, learn, and develop themselves in all dimensions of their lives. King Faisal University in Al-Ahsa aimed to do just that upon the return of their students after their long summer break. The College of Business Administration at the university welcomed their students and greeted them with high spirits in the first two weeks of the new year. In the lobby, the students were served delicious locally grown dates that are not fully ripe, also known as ‘rutab', and Arabic coffee. Some 5,330 students are enrolled in the College of Business Administration. Students were also given maps of the new campus building to help them get acquainted with their lecture halls and attend lectures on time. Dr. Khaled Abdul-Rahman Al-Fallah, Dean of Administrative Sciences College, personally oversaw that all measures were taken to ensure a comfortable and organized environment for the students that would foster learning. Dr. Al-Fallah announced that the new building for the college covers an area of 21,600 square meters and includes highly equipped computer labs, lecture halls, staff and deans' offices, a library, prayer room, and restaurants. __
