Remembering Saadia Khan
April 13, 2021
For many years I have been waiting to write on Saadia Khan, the most brilliant student of our MBA class at NUST. It was the 1st MBA class at newly established Business School and the classes were run in the evening. This was to enable those students who had jobs and worked during the daytime to join classes in the evening. Saadia was working in Islamabad at United Nation Information Centre (UNIC), she would straight come to Rawalpindi where NUST Campus was located during those days. She was never late nor looked fatigued from 9-5 work hours at her office which she had joined on completion of studies at Ghulam Ishaq Khan Institute. She possessed amazing energy, exceptional determination and always appeared calm and composed in the class. Personally I was greatly impressed the way she carried herself with incredible grace and extra-ordinary calm. In group assignments her contribution and inputs were always more than anyone but she would give the credit for good work to others. She was adjudged the best student at end of the 1st semester and she maintained that position in others semesters as well. She stood out from the rest of the class and was declared the best student of the course.
