Most Popular Teacher in Computer Systems

Salaam Dear Nedians,

Since my friend Faraz has told me and encouraged me to read and contribute to the NEDians blog, I have been enjoying the posts here and thinking about what to write. Today I was browsing the NED website and found my favorite teacher on the department’s people page.

I like the fact that they have posted photos of the faculty members. Among these is my own batch mate (and approximate name mate) Syed Abbas Ali, but there are also a lot of new faces there, which is good to see. While going through the list of teachers and their description I found a unique sentence I have not seen written on the NED website about any other teacher, here it is :

Mr. Shahab Tahzeeb is among the most popular teachers amongst the students in the department owing to his excellent teaching style.

I couldn’t agree more; he is not just popular, he is a favorite. I am not sure why the most popular teacher has his photo in black and white while all others are in color. Maybe popularity has its own color, after which you don’t need any more.

By the way I am in Seattle, WA, working for Amazon.com as a software development engineer and would love to hear from any NEDians in the area (any Microsofties?).

Go NEDians!

N.E.D. University is very dear to me, I had some of the best times of my life there with the best friends I ever had.

Almost all of us who graduated from N.E.D. have been very successful in our lives. From the moment we graduated, most of us have spread out around the world to pursue our dreams. The lessons we have learned along the way have been very interesting , educational and, in most cases, rewarding.

I am very proud to have been a part of the Computer Systems Engineering Batch 1994-95, and most of all I am very interested in finding out about all my friends from N.E.D: How they have been? What have they been up to? And which part of the world are they in right now?
