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.
