History and Culture:
The Arabian Peninsula has supported agricultural, herding and hunting cultures for thousands of years. Living on important ancient trade routes, the ancestors of the Saudi Arabians were touched by diverse civilizations such as Mesopotamia, Egypt, Greece, Rome, Byzantine, India, Persia and China. The Quran, the holy book of Islam, was revealed to the Prophet Muhammad in the western Arabian cities of Makkah and Madinah beginning about 610 A.D. The birth of the new faith of Islam was a momentous historical event. Inspired by Islam, a new civilization emerged and remained vigorous for centuries, providing stability and advancing human knowledge, while during the Middle Ages Western civilization was in eclipse.
The history of modern Saudi Arabia begins with Abdul Aziz Al-Saud, who was officially proclaimed King in 1927, and the country was named the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia in 1932. Following the discovery of oil in commercial quantities in 1938, rapid economic development and a rising prominence in a world affairs are highlights of the most recent chapters of Saudi Arabia’s history. Saudi Arabia’s residents are predominantly Arab plus some non-Arab Muslims. Many Arabs from nearby countries are employed in the Kingdom. In addition, living in the Kingdom are significant numbers of expatriate workers from North America, Europe, South Asia and the Far East. About a third of the population of Saudi Arabia are resident foreigners.
The city of Jeddah lies directly on the Red Sea and is approximately 70 km long and 10 km wide, with a population of approximately two million who have a cheerful and hospitable attitude to the many visitors to the city. It is a lively modern city. An old established port, it is historically a busy point on the routes of trade and pilgrims. The speed of development of the city has been extraordinary over the last 20 years and the most modern shopping precincts can be found adjacent to the old city. Makkah, the center of Islam, is an hour’s drive away from Jeddah.

The speed of development of the city has been extraordinary over the last 20 years and the most modern shopping precincts can be found adjacent to the old city. Makkah, the center of Islam, is an hour’s drive away from Jeddah.
Living and Working in Saudi Arabia:
Respect for Islamic customs and beliefs is extremely important. The practice of other religions is not allowed. The cultural issues must be understood and accepted by anyone living and working in the country, one founded on Islamic principles and Sharia law. Some observers believe these laws account for an extremely low crime rate compared with the western world.
Women are not allowed to drive in Saudi Arabia, but taxis are plentiful and inexpensive. For international staff, the college provides transportation between the housing compound and the college. Women must wear an ‘abaya’ or at least be covered when in public. This does not mean they must wear a headscarf at all times; it means women must be sensibly and modestly dressed. However, women must wear both an ‘abaya’ and headscarf when entering and leaving the college. As a general rule, women wear skirts with the hemline below the calf of the leg. Sleeves should be at least elbow length and the neckline modest. Loose fitting and concealing rather than revealing is a good fashion guideline. Loose trousers are acceptable. Westerners have more leeway in dress within the housing compounds, but conservative dress is expected at the college and in public places.
There are many opportunities for shopping in Jeddah. International shopping centers include such well-known shops as Liz Claiborne, DKNY, The Body Shop, Calvin Klein, Emporio Armani, Tommy Hilfiger, Christian Dior, Boss and IKEA. In addition to the modern shopping centers, Jeddah also has many traditional ‘souks’ or local markets where all types of products can be purchased ranging from fruit and vegetables to gold to textiles to antiques. Jeddah also has many supermarkets where U.S. and European products can be found, as well as a variety of local and Middle Eastern products not normally available elsewhere. These shops vary from local mini-markets (or bakalas) to hypermarkets and are open seven days a week, although they are closed during prayer times, which are published in the local English language newspapers. No alcoholic or pork products are sold and none may be brought into the Kingdom.
Socially, life in Jeddah can be very satisfying. Many different sporting activities are found in the expatriate community including adult netball, baseball, softball, basketball, golf (including a green course), soccer (league), tennis and squash, sailing, rugby (male and female), aerobic classes, running clubs, fitness organizations and the opportunity to snorkel and scuba dive in one of the most exceptional reefs and seas in the world. These are also private (expatriate) beaches where people can relax and/or sail.
There are music and drama groups, operatic societies, cinema clubs, a Natural History Society, square and line dancing clubs, Scottish Dancing Societies, bridge clubs and many other activities for the less active. Additionally, many of the consulates arrange special cultural social events for the expatriate community, and there are thriving men’s and women’s business/meeting groups. These organizations arrange many events including seasonal fairs and bazaars.
Restaurants are excellent, including international chains such as McDonalds, Wimpy’s, KFC, Fuddruckers, Burger King, Pizza Hut, and Chilis. There are excellent Middle Eastern restaurants and restaurants offering international menus (e.g., Olives, La Cuisine) as well as more specialized ones ( e.g., Japanese, Chinese). There are many good five star hotels (e.g., Marriott, Hyatt, Inter-Continental, Sheraton) that have a wide range of restaurants. Jeddah also has a large number of expatriate restaurants where good quality, inexpensive food from India, Lebanon, Pakistan, Thailand and the Philippines can be obtained.
The climate of Jeddah is much more pleasant and less extreme than most of Saudi Arabia due to the sea breezes from the Red Sea. Between the months of November to March it has been described as idyllic with the winter climate being very balmy. However, during the summer months it is hot and humid. All buildings, cars, and shops are fully air-conditioned. The college has air- conditioning in all lecture rooms, theatres, offices, halls and all other areas used by faculty and students.
The accommodation provided to international faculty is in good expatriate compounds which have a wide range of services such as swimming pools, various sporting facilities ( e.g., tennis, gymnasium, squash courts), limousine (taxi) service, shopping buses, transport to the beaches, and satellite TV. Some of the residential compounds are multicultural; others are more western oriented, and many organize social events for their residents. There is a full range of medical and dental facilities available in Jeddah. There are many well-equipped private hospitals and clinics, with English speaking staff.
There are excellent opportunities for travel around the region, especially to those places that may be difficult or expensive to reach from the U.S. Countries such as Jordan (Petra), the United Arab Emirates (including Dubai and Abu Dhabi), India, Cyprus, Bahrain, and Oman are not far away.
To enter or leave Saudi Arabia, a visa is required, even if you are a resident. Applications for visas are handled by the college’s administrative staff. On joining the college, a full medical physical is required in your home country. Additional medical tests are completed after arrival in Jeddah. This, together with the other required paperwork, is processed by the college to get the resident’s visa.
The cost of living is similar to, or slightly more expensive than, the U.S. in some areas but this is compensated by low prices for items such as gasoline, which is currently about 17 cents per liter. All makes of cars are available; many expatriates prefer four wheel drive vehicles such as GMC Suburban, Ford Explorer, Land Rover Discovery, Mitsubishi Shoguns or equivalent vehicles, all of which are much cheaper than their equivalent in the U.S.
Saudi Arabia is a country of modesty and tradition, mixed with more western influence in some areas. For many it is a fascinating culture, one that cannot be experienced anywhere else. One of the most obvious and yet perhaps one of the most important things to remember while in Saudi Arabia is that Saudi culture and tradition are undoubtedly much different from your own. One has to always remember that almost all Saudis are deeply religious, and that the spirit of Islam is not an incidental, but is an integral part of life. As in any intercultural exchange, patience and understanding are virtues that will serve people well. Living in Saudi Arabia may represent a challenge to some but a fascinating experience to many others.
