Success to Blame!

When the King Saud University (KSU) awoke from the academic inactiveness to go for an unprecedented rising, I wrote up that the hustle was attributed to H.E. Professor Dr. Abdullah Al-Othman, the KSU President. Yet, I felt sorry that a time-honored university like the KSU was in need to a charismatic man to set things aright. This means that it has been lacking what it takes to have success guaranteed.
Blaming me for attributing success to him, Al-Osman called me saying, "Success is made thanks to efforts of more than 250 cadres on campus." I said, "The 250 persons have always been there but success was not there!"
Now, the KSU is progressing to have a higher-than-before ranking that commensurates with the strategic academic objectives adopted by H.M. King Abdullah bin Abdul-Aziz, the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques.
Finally, I would like to remind Al-Osman that the university is of two separate campuses; one for males and the other for females. Yet, the female campus in Elishah does not perform well as male campus in Deriah does. He needs to focus on females.
