To mark the 154th anniversary of the birth of Akhmet Baitursynuly, who holds a special place in the spiritual history of the Kazakh people, the Department of Kazakh Philology of the Faculty of Philology and Sport held a knowledge contest for first-year students.
During the event, students showed their knowledge of the life and educational and scholarly work of the “teacher of the nation” and gave expressive readings of excerpts from his works and poems. The five-round contest tested the participants’ wit and knowledge and sparked great enthusiasm.
In each round, students demonstrated how well they know Akhmet Baitursynuly’s literary, scholarly and public legacy. At the end of a close contest, the teams with the best results took the prize places and received awards.
“The word of the teacher of the nation is an example for generations; his legacy is an eternal treasure.”
