Modern university is more than a place where professors come to share their knowledge and experience and students come to gain it. It is a space where individuals meet each other: professionals of different fields, young talents and future colleagues. A space where ideas and projects are born. Different talents, personal qualities and experience are realized here. To be open not only to ideas but also to individuals, it is necessary to communicate. In order to encourage closer communication between students, professors and administration staff, Kazimieras Simonavičius University organizes informal, cozy and fun celebration of a new academic year.
