This letter is intended to serve as a college recommendation for Mr. Omar Al-Aqra'a. I have been acquainted with Omar for four years but came to know him well last year, as I was his graduation project advisor. Students and faculty often remark that Omar is blessed with considerable talent. What many of them overlook is how hard Omar works to cultivate his talent, whether it is the development of his writing skills or computer skills. Omar demonstrated the genuine intellectual curiosity that he has exhibited over and over -- a curiosity that is often accompanied by his excitement or enthusiasm for an idea, an author, a literary work or the lead role in a challenging structural design. Omar is a motivated young man of numerous talents and considerable self discipline. He is fun-loving, likable, enthusiastic, trusting and trustworthy. Hazim Dwairi Assistant Professor
