The Spark of Knowledge, Heartfelt Stories, and the Start of a Great Student Journey!
The Freshmen Initiation is a truly special event marking the beginning of a new chapter in student life and an introduction to our big faculty family.
Joining the first-year students to share this memorable day were Dean Nataliia Voropai, Department Heads Liubov Petukhova and Iryna Shaposhnykova, academic advisors, and faculty members.
The atmosphere was filled with smiles, warm conversations, and engaging stories. Teachers and senior students shared memories of their own university years, offered insights into student life, and passed along their experience. Meanwhile, the freshmen had a wonderful opportunity to get to know each other, soak in the faculty's welcoming spirit, and become part of a tight-knit community.
A truly special moment was the creation of the Spark of Knowledge. Passing a lit candle from hand to hand, the students shared heartfelt wishes with one another and the university. This symbolic gesture carried warmth, unity, hope, and faith in the future.
The event also featured the solemn Freshmen Oath — a pledge to honor traditions and write their own history at KSU.
Dear freshmen, may your path ahead be filled with new friendships, fascinating discoveries, and many reasons to be proud of yourselves. May the spark of knowledge you ignited today guide you throughout your entire student journey!
