Dr. Mehrdad Dadsetani, President of Lorestan University, issued a message congratulating the faculty of Lorestan University on the occasion of Teacher's and Professor's Day (May 1st).
According to the Public Relations Department of Lorestan University, the text of Dr. Dadsetani's message is as follows:
In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
The twelfth of Ordibehesht, the anniversary of the martyrdom of the wise professor, Martyr Ayatollah Morteza Motahhari (RA), commemorates the position and importance of the high status of knowledge, faith, and social responsibility.
This day is an opportunity to pay tribute to the pioneers of awareness, the esteemed teachers and professors who carry out the mission of education and training with love, commitment, and expertise.
I sincerely congratulate and felicitate all the esteemed professors of Lorestan University on the arrival of this great day.
The esteemed professors of the country's higher education system, with their high determination and exemplary perseverance, have built the strong pillars of progress and authority of Islamic Iran in the scientific, research, and cultural arenas.
In the most sensitive conditions of the country, especially during the 12-day and Ramadan wars, teachers and professors never ceased to fulfill their mission and always, in all circumstances, in the field of education and research in the country, with the same scientific motivation and vitality, have kept the flag of knowledge flying high in the ancient and civilized land of Iran.
The valuable efforts of the esteemed colleagues who are members of the scientific board in the continuation of education - especially in the field of virtual education in the country's wartime conditions - are a symbol of commitment and responsibility for the scientific construction of the country.
Undoubtedly, various and great national achievements in the scientific and technological fields are the result of thinking with a problem-solving approach and the sacrifice and selflessness of dear ones working in the sacred trenches of education and training.
We commemorate the memory of the esteemed martyrs of science and higher education in the country, especially the esteemed martyrs of the scientific community in the 12-day and Ramadan wars; those who, in the path of defending Iran, linked "knowledge" to the "field" so that the homeland would remain proud and powerful.
Their path is the guiding light of the path of growth and honor of the brave Iranian nation.
From the Almighty God, I ask for health, honor, success, and continued brilliance in the field of science and ethics for all the esteemed professors of Lorestan University.
Mehrdad Dadsetani
President of Lorestan University
