Dr. Younes Nazarian Visits Campus
Dr. Nazarian (at left, in center) met with leadership, faculty, and students during his stay at the University. The Younes and Soraya Nazarian Library, already one of Israel's most comprehensive, is home to over two million books and electronic materials. The new Library will be inaugurated during this summer's Board of Governor's Meetings (June 3-5), celebrating the University's 40th anniversary.
The Nazarians' generosity extends far beyond the Library, itself. At the entrance of the University's campus is the Legacy sculpture, dedicated in 2010 (at right). The magnificent piece of artwork, designed by Soraya Nazarian, is intended to compliment the recently renovated wings of the Library and evokes the story of the Jewish People in Exodus.
