The luxurious life at AUC 

NatSound Essay


Length: 59 seconds

Script:
In contrast to most universities in Cairo, and in Egypt generally, the AUC's new campus is known to stand out for the luxurious life its students lead. The 46,000 acres campus extends over a large are in the 5th settlement New Cairo district. Students are accommodated with vast areas of palm trees, greenery, and fountains that all work together as a relaxation gateway from the common stress of studies. The AUC new campus also has a sports center for all students and amongst its many services, is a heavy weights gym that is usually flooded with AUC male students trying to get in shape. And of course, the AUC library with its several computer complexes, is a very common hang-out area for the students to study.
