The date of foundation of Pyatigorsk State University is considered to be June 27, 1939, when the Pedagogical School officially became a higher educational institution. Since then, the university has undergone various changes and transformations - an increase in the number of years of study, several renamings - and officially became known as Pyatigorsk State University in 2016. Since 2005, the head of the university is Professor Gorbunov Alexander Pavlovich. By 2009, 10 faculties were formed at the university. Further, on their basis, institutes and higher schools were created, having one of the faculties in their composition. In addition, PSU is actively developing the system of pre-university, postgraduate and additional education. It has a branch in Novorossiysk. Currently, the university has 34 departments. Now Pyatigorsk State University has more than 5,500 students and 3,000 students from different regions of Russia and foreign countries. All the peoples of the Caucasus are also represented in PSU.

PSU held a civil-patriotic action “We are faithful to this memory”. The patriotic action in the Victory Park, near the memorial to the dead soldiers, was attended by all Institutes and Higher Schools, deputies of the Duma of the city of Pyatigorsk, members of the Public Chamber of the city of Pyatigorsk, public patriotic organizations.

In total, more than 200 people took part in the event.

Accompanied by the anthem of the Russian Federation, they unfurled a huge copy of the Victory Banner, and then dance couples from students of the PSU Law Institute, dressed in the style of the war years, waltzed to the accompaniment of the orchestra, as once in the distant 1945th, their grandfathers and grandmothers whirled in a festive waltz.

Participants of the civil-patriotic action danced the victorious waltz for themselves and for those who are not destined to share the joy of Victory.

The civil-patriotic action “We are faithful to this memory” ended with the laying of a huge wreath of needles, with ribbons and carnations woven into it, and all participants laid flowers at the monument to the dead soldiers in the Great Patriotic War.
