On June 2, high society gathered in the Kazan City Hall: elegant young people in tuxedos and girls in evening dresses. They came to the KIU Rector's Ball, an annual award ceremony for the best university students who have distinguished themselves in science, study, creativity, sports and social life. This is the pride of the university, its golden fund.
Sparkling with gold, the City Hall has become an perfect place for a ball. In its spacious hall, students talked, anticipating something amazing. For some, this was the first experience of participation, someone has already proved their right to be among the best - but everyone equally remembered the atmosphere of a real high society event.
The huge hall of the City Hall was decorated with a colorful "ocean" of evening dresses and stylish suits, which means that the Rector's Ball has begun. The overture of the event was the performance of Sofia Gubaidullina's contemporary music orchestra. Then Rector Asiya Timiryasova came out to the microphone to applause: “Do you know why you are here today, in this hall where Pyotr Tchaikovsky, Fyodor Chaliapin once performed, Sergei Rachmaninov and Alexander played music, Vladimir Mayakovsky read his poems? Because you are the best students of Kazan Innovative University. More than two hundred students have gathered in this hall today. It seems that there are so many of you, but in fact there are very few of you. Thirteen thousand students study at our university, and two hundred people is only one and a half percent. There can't be many better ones. You are writing your life story, enriching the chronicle of our university. You do well in everything: in studies, science, creativity, sports. And I wish you to do everything that you think."
One by one, the best students of their faculties appeared on the stage: future lawyers, economists, managers, psychologists, linguists, and technologists. In addition, graduates were awarded at the Rector's Ball - straight-A student. They are the pride of the University and each of them will succeed in their future professional career. The participants of the ball were congratulated by representatives of the University administration and presented with commemorative diplomas and medals.
