A number of King Khalid University faculty members expressed their pride and praised their country's efforts against COVID-19. His Excellency the Rector, Prof. Falleh Al-Solamy, directed that all contributions shall be posted on the official Twitter account. College of Humanities Vice Dean of Graduate Studies and Scientific Research, Prof. Awad bin Abdullah Al-Qarni, wrote a poem to praise the efforts of healthcare heroes, in which he says:
I deceive my hand to write
Knowing deep down its forced
I drag it knowing that
If I won’t it’ll disobey
It slides over rhythms heavily
Until I praise who’s worthy
Those who sacrificed,
Themselves. Praising their glory is a must
Rhymes to medical heroes stopped
Failing to describe their deeds
The sunsets eventually, but
Their glory will always raise
"We are proud to describe our country as a wise country that prioritizes wisely and makes wise choices as well. It deals with situations with confidence. The Novel Coronavirus invaded the whole world. However, our country faced it with awareness, precaution, and organizational decisions. It controlled the spread of the virus and reduced its effects on the community. It was among the first countries of the world which in the middle of the chaos, its King’s speech came to heal, came to calm, and was transparent. The speech was intimate, prioritizing human lives. As a result, people united in aid and support of the health and security institutions. The slogan of this period was 'We Are All Responsible', which represented the unity of the whole community," said Dean of the Community College in Khamis Mushait, Dr. Ahmed bin Ali Al-Mureea.
In the same context, Dr. Khidran Al-Suhaimi from the College of Education expressed his feelings with a poem in which he said:
You are the cause of our pride
Where beauty resembled roses
Like the fine mists of passion
We build with patriotism
And aspire higher than the stars
We salute the flag to raise higher
We shall write history
Here in our University
Where we are met with fragrances
