Keep in your hearts love for the university, the friendships made during your student years, remember that you are always welcome at the faculties. I wish you health, happiness, good luck, success in passing state exams and labor, to be devoted to your chosen professions and your country."

Every year students of our university achieve great heights in science, creativity and sports, so an important moment of the celebration is awarding the graduates with letters of commendation and gratitude of the rector.

The students made a speech in response.

Batyr Atayev, as a representative of foreign students, expressed gratitude to the university administration and teachers for supporting foreign students, for the fact that thousands of kilometers away from their native land, they feel at home at BrSU, and their parents feel comfortable for their children. The guys promised to realize themselves in their chosen professions in order to glorify their favorite university and our country.

Natalia Solyshko, mother of Sofia Udovenko, a graduate of the Department of Physics and Mathematics, addressed a word of gratitude to the university administration and teachers. "Dear teachers, you generously shared the warmth of your hearts and professional experience with our children, taught them to think correctly, to see the world in all its forms. Thank you for your care."

The concert program, prepared by student club activists, gave the students an opportunity to express their gratitude for the teachers' professionalism and wisdom through their creativity. The graduation ceremony concluded with a waltz performed by the graduates and a farewell bell.
