Dear friends – students and postgraduates, faculty members and employees! Congratulations on the Knowledge Day!
The First of September is a warm, particularly exciting holiday, a significant day from which the road to the future begins, filled with amazing discoveries and the joy of learning. I sincerely believe that the new academic year will become for each of you a year of implementing the boldest plans and important beginnings.
Freshmen, firstly, I would like to address you. Don’t be afraid to try something new. Let the studies be fun, easy and productive, and let your student life be full of interesting events and wonderful acquaintances.
Senior students, you already enriched your store of knowledge and got your achievements. But remember, it is only the beginning of your path. Don’t settle now, keep moving forward!
Professors, I wish you to be open to your students, to have mutual understanding, everyday happiness, inspiration and creativity. The credit for the reputation of ISU in scientific and public fields is yours. We are proud of your love for your work and your professionalism.
From the bottom of my heart, I congratulate the faculty and students of ISU College. On September 1st, 2024, the College opened its doors to first-year students for the first time.
I would like to especially note the students of the Pedagogical Institute, because it largely depends on our future teachers what the 1st of September will be like in schools, what knowledge and skills schoolchildren will receive!
All the very best to you, friends! May the new academic year bring you many bright and inspiring events, success and discoveries!
ISU Rector, professor Alexander Schmidt
