Tues day, 16 June 2009

RA Prime Minister Tigran Sargsyan attended the inauguration of
the 6th block of Zeitun students’ hostels by the State Medical
University after Mekhitar Heratzi. The Prime Minister walked round
the completely refurbished building which was allocated to the
SMU under a government decree in return for the former 7th block
belonging to the University. Tigran Sargsyan called at the unit meant
for foreign students, readers and guests. The building is equipped
with modern technical facilities and a state-of-the-art security
system. The University currently holds the 5th and 6th with about
300 rooms envisaged for over 600 students altogether. The new block
was refurbished using proceeds from the tuition fund.

The head of the Armenian government said that the Government’s decision
proved right, as evidenced by students themselves: "I believe that
the students of our generation would only dream of such favorable
conditions. I used to live in a students’ hostel in Leningrad and
never saw conditions like this. I am deeply impressed by what we saw
today. This will enable our students to fully dedicate themselves to
study, research and knowledge," the Prime Minister said.
