On 10 June, the Department of Pre-university Education organised a tour of the main building of VSU for six-year old Timur from the Novousmansky district. On 1st September this year Timur will start school. He wants to study zoology at the Faculty of Biomedical Sciences.
Anzhelika Makarova, the main guardian of the collections of the VSU History Museum, told the future student about the university, showed some old exhibits, and gave him a personal tour around the Zoological Museum named after Professor Barabash-Nikiforov.
The boy was impressed by a large collection of his favourite animals in one place. When the guide asked who he would like to make friends with, Timur answered at once: “With a white grouse. It’s not as beautiful as a flamingo but it’s cute.”
“Carrying out its educational mission, the university is open for everyone, especially for children. The seed that we plant today in this child will definitely grow, and he will become our student and researcher,” said Anzhelika Makarova.
