Nixon University- Celebrating International Day of Peace


Nixon University personnel wished everyone a very happy and peaceful International Day of Peace. To our alumni belonging to various parts of the world, we hope you all are celebrating this day in true spirit keeping the essence of the day in mind.    

Today, the entire world is celebrating the International Day of Peace. The 21st of September officially announced as the International Day of Peace by the UN GENERAL Assembly in 2002. Since then, people all over the world express their feelings of goodwill and peace. Celebrations can be anything, from a festival to the simple act of singing peace songs together and expressing solidarity with each other.



To Nixon University students residing in New York City, we hope you felt the thrill of excitement hearing the Peace Bell toll. It is quite a thing to behold and that which brings to mind the lives lost in war and the negative impacts it has on human life. Nixon University encourages its students to take active parts in demonstration, festivals and other activities on this day so that we all may observe this day of peace together.    

The International Day of Peace of the year 2013 has been dedicated to peace education by the UN Secretary General in an effort to encourage a culture of peace in people from an early age and make them aware about the benefits and importance of peace in today’s world. Nixon University, being a leading educational institute, fully supports this initiative and hopes it can contribute to the peace education of its students no matter which part o the world they may be in.

Nixon University once more wishes all its students all over the world a very happy International Day of Peace and hopes that this day brings fortifying change to the world at large
