Testimony
"They came to my office last December with a video presentation. This was not just plans but images in the form of a video of what the University could look like.
We were bowled over by what we saw. And what we see today is exactly what was presented to us.

Inauguration Speech By Minister For Education Gilbert Licudi At The Opening Of The New University 21 September 2015
"As you can see, the design blends in perfectly the old with the new and does so in a way that not only preserves but enhances the architectural features and heritage value of the existing buildings. And at the same time creating a marvellous use of space in a modern educational establishment”
