Meindeg Moien Lundi Matin *Monday Morning* Montag Morgen
19 MAY 2008
Good morning, everyone! It is indeed a
great pleasure to welcome you to the John E.
Dolibois European Campus, to Luxembourg
and to Europe. All of us at MUDEC, the
faculty and staff, are happy that you are
here and wish you a most rewarding,
meaningful and enjoyable stay. The next six
weeks are going to be some of the most
exciting, fast paced and challenging ones in
your life. While all of us at MUDEC are
committed to helping and guiding you as you
go through this European experience, it is
really your responsibility to get the most out of
it. So, take advantage of the marvelous
opportunity you have to study and to live in
Europe. Plan all of your activities well and
ascertain that you are allocating your time,
your energy and your resources wisely,
effective and efficiently. Your commitment to
academics is essential and the most important
of all.
The orientation activities you had
participated in this past weekend were
designed to provide you with useful
information, with opportunities to become
acquainted with MUDEC and Luxembourg
and to help you with the process of
“bonding”; essential for you to feel “at
home” at MUDEC. Your positive attitude,
your punctuality and your team spirit were and
are much appreciated. We have spent many
days and hours planning the orientation
program and the various excursions for you
and are gratified to see how much all of you
enjoyed them.
A special “thank you” goes to the faculty
and staff members who participated in the
different orientation activities. They gave up
even part of their weekend to make this
possible. It was a wonderful and most
enjoyable “MUDEC family” experience for all
of us.
The success of MUDEC at large and of your
summer program, specifically, rests on three
solid pillars, which in their entirety
represent the foundation of your European
experience. They are in sequence of
priorities: 1) Your and our commitment to
an excellent, timely and relevant academic
program, 2) the opportunity to experience
European family and social life and 3)
Center sponsored and individual travels.
For you to benefit from your European
experience and to get the most out of it, it is of
utmost importance that you manage your
resources wisely and that you allocate your
time and your energy according to the priorities
established by the MUDEC program.
To assure the continued excellent academic
reputation and success of our program, it is
essential that you accept and abide by the
attendance, conduct, and social rules we
have established and discussed in our
orientation lectures.
I feel that we are off to a very good summer
program and would like to thank you for your
attentiveness, your cooperation and for your
positive attitude. With all of us working
together we will have a great summer term.
Again, I extend to you my warmest welcome
to MUDEC, to Luxembourg and to Europe.
I am delighted that you are here and wish
you most wonderful, enlightening and
enriching summer term and European
experience.
Most sincerely,
Ekkehard Stiller
Dean
