On May 2, 2025, the Department of Criminal Law, Criminal Procedure, and Forensics, in collaboration with the student volunteer club "Shapagat," held an essay competition among students on the topic "Memory Written in History."

This event became an important milestone in preserving historical memory and instilling respect for the deeds of past generations. The competition was dedicated to the 80th anniversary of Victory in the Great Patriotic War and served as a bridge between generations, allowing students to express their thoughts on the importance of preserving the memory of the events of that era. The participants wrote about the significance of historical memory for modern youth, about the heroes of the war, their heroic deeds, and their contribution to a peaceful future. Special attention was given to themes related to patriotism, personal responsibility, and the preservation of historical heritage. Each essay became not only a reflection on the past but also a timely message for future generations, emphasizing the importance of remembering and respecting what was done to ensure that we could live in a free and peaceful world. The works of the participants were diverse and multifaceted — from deep reflections on the significance of Victory for the country to personal stories about family veterans. The essays included not only facts and dates but also feelings, experiences, and sincere thoughts, which made one reflect on how important it is to remember the lessons of the past. The competition jury, consisting of professors from the Department of Criminal Law, Criminal Procedure, and Forensics, as well as representatives of the "Shapagat" volunteer club, noted the high level of the works. The winners of the competition received diplomas and valuable prizes. This event demonstrated how important it is for the younger generation to understand that the memory of the war is not only about historical facts and events, but also about the emotions and values passed down through generations. The impressive essay competition became another step in preserving the eternal connection between the past and the present, strengthening the sense of patriotism, and showing respect for those who gave their lives for freedom and independence. "Memory Written in History" is not just words, but inspiration for future generations, a reminder of the price of peace, and the understanding that each of us is part of a great history that must be preserved and passed on to future generations.
