It is annually organized by the administration of career guidance and work with talented youth of Moscow State University, named after M.V .Lomonosov for foreign students of natural faculties of the Faculty of Philology.

Sardor has successfully coped with the task of a qualifying stage and went into the final round, due to the results of which was the winner of the festival. In assessing the creative works, members of the jury took into account the level of knowledge of the Russian language, the originality of interpretation and the ability to move away from the standard approach to the subject.

"To participate in the qualifying stage, it was necessary to write an essay on one of the topics offered by the organizing committee. - Sardor says, - I have chosen "Russian literature on the stage and on the screen." In the final stage the participants were asked to send to the organizing committee a video of his speech. It was supposed to be a recitation of a poem or prose passage, musical composition or the Russian staging of literary works. With the help of my friends in the TV studio of the Institute were shot and edited a video on the work of Vasily Shukshin "Story". As it turned out, Sardor perfectly speaks several languages. "I am from Uzbekistan, but I am Tatar. At home we speak Tatar, Uzbek and Russian languages. I like Russian language for its rich vocabulary, being colorful and expressive. I think many foreigners read the Russian classics in Russian to experience all the beauty of the presentation and perception of what the authors describe. I started to study the Russian language in high school and am very good at it now. I enthusiastically read the works of Russian literature, and most of all I like such poets as Lermontov, Yesenin, love to read Blok, Bulgakov, Tolstoy. All this determined my choice of university and faculty. I became interested in journalism about 3 years ago, I tried to write articles and was directly involved in this exciting process at home. In the future, I plan to become a radio personality, and become a competent expert, who can correctly and clearly express his thoughts, I am sure my mentors-teachers in high school will help me. "

According to the dean of the Faculty of Russian Philology and journalism Elmira Ibragimova, the support of talented young people is one of the priority directions of the faculty. In this regard, the Faculty launched the project "The Firebird", the task of which is to involve students in activities that contribute to the development of their creative potential. Sardor’s participation in the festival is the first step in the development of this project.

With the change of the brand of the Kazan Federal University symbols of Elabuga Institute has transformed.

The constant promotion of the university in the world scientific and educational space has identified the need to change the logo of the Kazan Federal University. At the end of the last year the new logo was presented by Vice-Rector for Economic and Strategic Development of KFU Marat Safiullin. "We are involved in the program to improve the competitiveness, and one of the recommendations of the Ministry of Education and Science of Russia, the International Scientific Council – updating the brand of KFU", - informs the press-service of the university.

Now, the new logo is an image of Zilant, holding in his paw a torch - a symbol of enlightenment. The new logo will be the epitome of the academic status of the university, its rich tradition and long history. Zilant itself determines the location of the university. (According to ancient legend Zilant dwelt on the mountain near the mouth of the Kazanka River, where it empties into the Volga. In the legends of the ancient Bulgars dragon Zilant symbolized a sharp mind and immortality. It is often served as a talisman image for warriors).

The logos of the structural units of KFU has changed together with the basic symbols of the university. Now, each institute has its own color palette. So, the emblem of Yelabuga Institute of KFU will be presented in three colors: the base - blue, the basic (color of the direction) - gray and an additional (the color of the institute) - orange.
