Being a sailor is work and responsibility
A ceremonial initiation ceremony for cadets of the 1st, 2nd and 3rd years of the Murmansk Arctic University in maritime specialties took place in Murmansk.
25 years have passed since the last ceremonial initiation ceremony for cadets. This year, this tradition is being revived at the Murmansk Arctic University. Under the flag of the Russian Federation, the Murmansk Region and the university banner, the first-year students solemnly took the oath.
The rector of the university, veterans of maritime professions and representatives of the companies in which graduates will be able to work after completing their studies spoke with parting words.
Ilya Nikanorov, Deputy General Director for Maritime Safety at Antey Sever:
“I congratulate you on this important event in your life! Very soon, in a short period of time, you will have the opportunity to stand on the deck of a new and active fleet. Therefore, I wish you to study well, not to slow down, not to change course and speed and follow your dream!”
