October 1, in the auditorium of the main building of the University held the traditional event dedicated to the celebration of the International Day of the Elderly. This year, the team met their former colleagues with a festive concert where has performed the choir of our veterans' organization.

On this day, old and loved songs were sounded and also staff and students of the university addressed their warm and sincere words to the veterans. After the concert, retirees in high spirits came to the tea-table, organized by the trade union organization, where they could speak with each other, remember friends and colleagues, learn the latest news about the home university. By order of the Rector of the University, in honor of the holiday, to pensioners, war veterans and home front workers was charitable assistance.

Every year the EKSTU list of pensioners increases, today there are 193 people, 2 of them are war veterans and 38 of them home front workers. This is a very active organization, which is constantly and successfully participates in all local and regional events. Nowadays veterans have a great room into the 2nd building of the university, where you can find several membership clubs and regularly held thematic meetings.

Dear veterans I wish health and longevity for you ! We never forget about you and always happy to wait for you!
