Always deeply appreciative of its host country, Doha College delights in the opportunity to celebrate the Qatari heritage. This year, the proceedings were a little different, with Covid restrictions dialling down the number and the breadth of activities. There were no falcons, camels or karak on the campus, but the spirit of the day was just as high.
