Carleton Mourns the Loss of Prof. A. O. Abd El Halim
It is with great sadness and a heavy heart that the Carleton University community acknowledges the loss of Prof. A. O. Abd El Halim, who passed away on Sept. 19, 2019.

For those wishing to attend a formal service in Halim’s memory, there will be a service on Sept. 21.
