Subject: LUMS Announces Abdus Salam Chair Campaign
Dear Alumni,
The Lahore University of Management Sciences (LUMS) is proud to
announce its campaign to create an Abdus Salam Chair at LUMS to honour
one of Pakistans first Nobel Award winner, and one of our greatest
scholar. I write to you today to seek your support, ideas and
assistance in to make this aspiration a reality.
I invite you to explore the details of our fundraising campaign here:

Once funded, the Abdus Salam Chair will be a University-wide honor to
be held by a Professor of international repute and distinction in any
academic discipline who has already made major international
contributions to his or her field of study.
Dr. Abdus Salam was the first Pakistani to receive the Nobel Award (in
Physics) and he is widely considered to be not only one of the great
physicists of the last century but also a builder of research
institutions – including the establishment of the International Center
for Theoretical Physics (ICTP) in Trieste, Italy, and also the Third
World Academy of Sciences (TWAS). He was awarded the Nobel Prize for
Physics in 1979, for his theoretical unification of the two
fundamental forces of nature. A year before his Nobel Prize, he was
awarded the Royal Medal of the Royal Society of London.
I hope that you will be able to assist your Alma Mater in this noble
cause of honouring one of Pakistans greatest scholars. You can do so
in at least two ways:
For those of you who are in a position to do so, please contribute to
the Abdus Salam Chair in whatever amount you can. It is as important
to get a large number of individuals donating as it is to reach the
required amount. Details on how to donate are available here:
http://bit.ly/zmAIyr
Please spread the word to others in your circles of influence about
this initiative and encourage them to contribute if they can
LUMS hopes that our alumni, friends and supporters will help us in
realizing the goal of establishing an Abdus Salam Chair and we look
forward to your assistance and help.
Contribute now to make a difference!
Regards,
Adil Najam
Vice Chancellor, LUMS
