KHALED AHMED SELLOW

MSc Chemistry 1998

lives in Egypt and teaches Chemistry at an international school. Memories of UCD: Nothing in life can compare to achieving your goal. I remember my conferring ceremony in November 1998 in O’Reilly Hall, my degree conferred by former UCD President Professor Art Cosgrove.

DR EL MOUATAMID BEN ROCHD

PhD 1990

lives in Morocco and is retired as a scholar of languages and philosophy. Memories of UCD: While commuting back and forth between Morocco and Ireland, I was lucky to meet my second family, the Greenes. I also had interesting encounters with writer and filmmaker Bob Quinn and separately with physician, Dr Tony Hussein, who encouraged me to run the Dublin Marathon. In the soccer World Cup, my heart is always with the Greens. I love Ireland.

Memories of UCD: At my clinical/practical exam, the mum of my little patient, who was suffering from chronic asthma, knew I was nervous.

Don’t worry, you will pass!” I still remember her encouraging words

ROWAN F KENNY
BSc Mathematics 1998

lives in Ireland and is an Officer of Statistics at the Central Statistics Office. Memories of UCD: I was a first year student of Physics and Mathematics, pacing up and down while studying in the kitchen of a friend’s flat in UCD’s Merville, when quite amazingly and literally a lightbulb fell on my head. Nine years later, on a working holiday in Spain, I was Googling my birthday and found that I was born on “Old Christmas Day” (4 January) which was Sir Isaac Newton’s birthday. Quite a coincidence! At UCD, I fell in love with the idea of learning more languages to communicate with more people!
