A ceremonial assembly was held at the Polytechnic, where the university’s student teams gathered. The fighters and candidates met again at the monument to the “Fallen Polytechnicians” to receive vouchers for the 77th labor season.
The event was attended by the Vice-Rector for Youth Policy and Communication Technologies of SPbPU Maxim Pasholikov and the head of the administrative office of the rector Vladimir Glukhov, who gave parting speeches. Also, the former commander of the headquarters of the student brigades of the Polytechnic University and the chairperson of the control and audit commission of the student brigades of St. Petersburg Maria Sverchkova spoke to the students.
The history of the Polytechnic student brigades began back in 1948, when 330 students from the then Leningrad Polytechnic Institute named after M. I. Kalinin went to the construction of the Alakus hydroelectric power station in the Leningrad region. This became the starting point for the brigades movement.
Since then, the opening line of the work season has become a good tradition at the university. This summer, 25 student teams of six different directions will go to different regions of our country. They include both experienced fighters and newcomers. They will master the professions of builders, counselors in children’s camps, agricultural specialists, archaeologists, train conductors and hotel service employees.
The event began with a fiery performance by candidates of the Polytechnic student teams. They presented a number prepared for the off-site event “Breathe StudOtryadom”. After that, everyone saw a colorful parade of students proudly carrying the flags of their teams. Then Maxim Pasholikov presented the long-awaited vouchers for the third work semester. Polina Ursegova from SPO “Legenda” and Dmitry Vorobyov from SSO “Iskra” performed the song “Red Thread”. The familiar words were immediately picked up by the rest of the participants of the line.
The Chairman of the Board of the Student Teams of St. Petersburg, Semyon Kiselev, and the Commissar of the Student Teams of the Northwestern Federal District, Margarita Shopen, also addressed the ceremony participants.
The student teams expressed special gratitude to the head of the youth policy department Ivan Khlamov, the chairman of the trade union organization of students and postgraduates Maxim Susorov, and the head of the public institute “Adapters” Elizaveta Zhak.
For me, the student brigades of Peter the Great St. Petersburg Polytechnic University are one big family, which includes absolutely different people, but all are united by the desire to engage in labor activity. I believe that student brigades are truly a school of life. Many successful people who now occupy quite high positions, both at our university and beyond, were once members of student brigades. They say that during this period of student life, construction brigades laid the foundation for their personal growth. I want to wish one thing to the brigades this year. Appreciate this time, you will never have such a thing in your life again. You will definitely succeed, I believe in you! – shared the commander of the headquarters of the student brigades of St. Petersburg Polytechnic University Anri Oganisyan.
The event ended with the traditional singing of favorite and familiar songs with a guitar. Very soon, the Polytechnic teams will set off for another working summer.
