I usually do not answer much but found this quite funny. This is a recipe for disaster, a blond girl in the Egyptian streets is practical suicide.
If she wants to, she must have a car, and if she cannot drive you'd better cut a deal with a 'known' driver who can take her. Never send her out alone.

Cairo is very safe, I am English and have lived here for over 7 years, I have never encountered any disrespect.
I f she wears clothes that are respectful, no short skirts or vest type tops she will be fine. There are many foreigners who come to study at the university, she will make friends easily and they will show here around and make sure she has a very enjoyable time, good luck

Dear Parent,
I fully understand your worries, I have two grown up kids and still worry bout them all the time,
Being a blond is not a problem, since we hv a lot of false blond in egypt, I want to assure you that the new campus is a way out of the centre in an area called new Cairo where only very hihly sophisticated families live, it is safe and quiet
Soon after your dUghter arrives to AUC, she will mingle beautifully with Egyptians and none Egyptians colleagues and she will be well instructed by them, as she will take their words more than yours,
My email:manalaghani@gmail.com
Wld be delighted to check on her every now and then in case she sld need anything, shall also introduce her, if she cares to my kids that hv already graduated from AUC.
Worries are twin kids to our own

of course it is safe. One of our workers is also blond and beautyful girl. She lives in the centre of the city and spent here all the Revolution without any bad situation or accident. It is really safe, even more for blond, beatyful girls than Egyptians because she will be treated as a tourist. And all tourists are very very safe in Cairo, and all around Egypt.
