Caught in the Act!

Students receive award for displaying ethical habits in campus.

“Example is not the main thing in influencing other. It is the only thing,” quotes Albert Schweitzer, a French philosopher. Recently, Nilai University (Nilai U) held an ‘I Am A Winner Award’ ceremony which was organised by the committee members of Leaders of Tomorrow society. The event celebrated the noble acts displayed by the students around the campus as spotted by the lecturer-observers. Even though the actions were simply helping to clear out the tables in the cafeteria or carrying books for the lecturer, the instillation of good habit among youngsters will build a more nurtured generation.
