At the general university volunteer workday at GUU, the Alexandrovskaya Alley of hydrangeas was planted and helped in preparing the territory for the summer period.
The start of work was given by the rector of GUU Vladimir Stroev, who emphasized the importance of caring for the environment.
“Ecology is not only nature, but also everything around us in everyday life: soil, grass, shrubs, and trees. Every day we walk through GUU, and it is very important that there is enough greenery and beauty on the territory. Such work has already become a good tradition: we are reviving a fruit garden, laid an alley of statisticians, which we regularly expand. Now there will be an alley dedicated to the Alexandrovsky commercial school, which became the progenitor of our university.”
Elena Turapina, the director of the ornamental plants nursery “Daughter of the Earth,” who spoke as one of the partners of the community workday, told about which plants will become the main alley.
“We are living in quite a difficult time, about which textbooks of history will write, and it depends only on us what exactly descendants will see. Let’s do more good deeds for the benefit of our country and the planet. I brought from the nursery one of the most beautiful, in my opinion, plant species: hydrangea paniculata Lime Light, which changes the color of its petals from green to delicate pink.”
After the conclusion of the ceremonial part, the participants proceeded to work. Representatives of the rectorate and activists of GUU planted more than 20 bushes along the path from the Main Academic Building to the central square of the campus.
The partners of the volunteer workday included the Federal Agency for Youth Affairs, the magazine “Municipal Academy,” and the ornamental plant nursery “Daughter of the Earth.”
Let us remind you that this week at GUU events are being held in honor of the university’s 146th anniversary: on the eve, a meeting of the “Sergo Ordzhonikidze Club” took place and a solemn ceremony of awarding the Sergo Ordzhonikidze Prize was held.
