Early life and educationNorah Al Faiz was born in Shaqraa in 1956.[2] Al Faiz received a bachelor of arts degree in sociology from King Saud University in Riyadh in 1979. She also received a master's degree in Instructional Technologies from Utah State University in 1982.[2][3][6] CareerUpon returning to Saudi Arabia, Al Faiz worked as a teacher. She became head principal of the girls' section at Prince Alwaleed bin Talal’s Kingdom Schools.[4] Later, Al Faiz served as the head of ministry of education’s educational technology center, and a lecturer and head of the training board of the ministry’s administration institute from 1983 to 1988. In 1993, she became ministry's educational supervisor for girls’ private education. She was also appointed the director general of women's section of the institute of public administration in 1993, which she held until 2009.[5] In addition, she worked as an associate professor in the department of education techniques from 1989 to 1995 at the College of Education, King Saud University.[6][7] Al Faiz was named deputy minister of education in charge of women’s affairs in February 2009 and is the first woman to direct girls’ education in Saudi Arabia.[4][8][9] She told that her appointment is "a source of pride for all women."[6] Reactions to her appointmentSaudi journalist Khalid Almeena stated "People are very excited about this [her appointment]."[10] Prince Talal considered her appointment as part of a larger process of change, initiated by King Abdullah even before his coronation, when he was still crown prince. He further stated that this appointment was good news for men even more than women, and was a call for women to take their natural place in society.[11] Faisal bin Abdallah, education minister, also welcomed her appointment as a deputy. He told that the Saudi education ministry was proud to be the first to have a woman in a ministry post, and that women help men in numerous areas, including in education.[11]However, Ali Alyami argued that her appointment was largely a move to make democratic reformers ineffective in and outside the country with the goal of reducing global criticism over the Saudi segregationist policies and oppression of women. For him, this move strengthens and reinforces King Abdullah’s position in the country. Shortly, he thought that her appointment led to a short-lived positive impact on the psyche and ethos of Saudi society, but it did not last for a long-time.[12] ViewsHer Al Watan interview seems to support Ali Alyami's views. Four months after her appointment, in June 2009, Norah Al Faiz told that "the time was still too soon for [the] topic ”of sports for girls."[13] Since her photo was published in the same daily, showing her face without niqab, she angrily reacted and said "The publication of my photo upset me immensely,...[I]t is well known that I am a Saudi woman from Najd, and thus I wear a niqab. I will never allow the publishing of my photo in newspapers and I will not accept that it be put up anywhere."[14] Personal lifeAl Faiz is married and has three sons and two daughters.[15] In April 2012, Utah State University granted her an honorary degree.[16] In 2009, she was regarded as one of the 500 influential Muslims by Georgetown University's center for Muslim-Christian understanding.[17] References1. ^1 {{cite web|title=King Issues Royal Decrees|url=http://mofa.gov.sa/sites/mofaen/ServicesAndInformation/news/statements/Pages/NewsArticleID89557.aspx|publisher=Ministry of Foreign Affairs|accessdate=10 May 2012|date=15 February 2009}} {{Portal|Saudi Arabia|Biography|Politics}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Faiz, Norah}}2. ^1 {{cite news|title=Profiles|url=http://www.saudigazette.com.sa/index.cfm?method=home.regcon&contentID=2009021529327|accessdate=10 May 2012|newspaper=Saudi Gazette|date=15 February 2009}} 3. ^{{cite web|title=Personality of the issue|url=http://www.bfg-global.com/portal/monthly/english/issue/0-ensalman.pdf|work=Business and Finances Group|accessdate=13 May 2012}} 4. ^1 {{cite news|last=Boucek|first=Christopher|title=Saudi Arabia’s king changes the guard|url=http://carnegieendowment.org/files/IAA_6__June_pxx_Saudi_Arabia2.pdf|accessdate=10 April 2012|work=Islamic Affairs Analyst|date=June 2009}} ([https://www.webcitation.org/6EksT9wlI Archive]) 5. ^{{cite news|title=Saudi Cabinet Reshuffle Signals Moderate Shift|url=https://www.pbs.org/newshour/updates/middle_east/jan-june09/saudi_03-02.html|accessdate=2 March 2013|work=PBS|date=2 March 2009}} 6. ^{{cite news|last=Moubayed|first=Sami|title=A peek under Saudi Arabia's veil|url=http://www.atimes.com/atimes/middle_east/mi28ak03.html|accessdate=29 May 2012|newspaper=Asian Times|date=28 September 2011}} 7. ^{{cite news|title=Nora Al Fayez: A veteran educationist|url=http://www.usu.edu/ust/pdf/2009/february/itn02170938.pdf|accessdate=29 May 2012|newspaper=Arab News|date=15 February 2009}} ([https://www.webcitation.org/6Ekjmey9a Archive]) 8. ^{{cite news|title=Saudi Cabinet Reshuffle; Woman Deputy Minister Appointed|url=http://carnegieendowment.org/2009/02/18/saudi-cabinet-reshuffle-woman-deputy-minister-appointed/6cdk|accessdate=2 March 2013|work=Carnegie Endowment|date=18 February 2009}} 9. ^{{cite book|author=Mohamed A.
