Celebrating Excellence at the Student Activities Ceremony

The Student Affairs Department at KFUPM lit up the campus on September 2nd with the much-anticipated Student Activities Annual Ceremony, a vibrant evening dedicated to honoring creativity, talent, and achievement. The event brought together students, faculty, and staff in a memorable celebration that showcased the energy and spirit of KFUPM’s student community.

The program opened with a warm introduction, followed by an inspiring speech from the Dean of Student Affairs. In his words: “Remember that the student in the university is like a flying bird in the sky that always aims high and doesn’t accept being under, also has two wings to fly with. One wing is a strong GPA and the other is skills, together they enable the student to soar to great achievements.” His analogy left the audience motivated to continue balancing academics with personal growth.

The evening featured an interactive competition that got the crowd buzzing, a creative theatre play that sparked laughter and reflection, and a short movie that highlighted the diverse activities students engaged in throughout the year. Excitement reached its peak during the prize draws, with students eagerly awaiting their names to be called.

The highlight of the night came when 82 outstanding students were honored on stage with certificates recognizing their hard work and dedication. The awards ranged from Golden Excellence and Silver Excellence to recognition for initiatives, the university team, and the student voluntary unit.

The atmosphere was filled with applause, pride, and joy as peers and faculty celebrated these shining examples of student excellence. The ceremony concluded with a delightful dinner, giving everyone a chance to connect and share the spirit of accomplishment.
