Using their creative abilities and ideas for the greater good, two students from American University of Sharjah (AUS) won recognition for their submissions to the Masar Student Creative Award for Print at the Dubai Lynx Festival 2016, which is an annual celebration of creativity and design in the region. Noor Garatli and Lynn Bizreh, both from the Department of Mass Communication at the College of Arts and Sciences, were awarded third and fifth place respectively for their creative posters which aim to increase attention towards pressing social issues like women and child abuse. The posters are stated to be used by the Dubai Foundation for Women and Children in their campaign efforts to combat domestic abuse.
