On March 16, Deputy Speaker of the State Duma Pyotr Tolstoy addressed residents of the South-Eastern Administrative District at the State University of Management.

The first to speak was Vladimir Stroev, Rector of the State University of Management, who noted the long-standing friendship between the university and Petr Olegovich.

"We are honored that our district's deputy is delivering his report to the public at GUU. I would like to point out that this is far from the first time, and I'm sure it won't be the last. Our university has been training leaders for our country for nearly 150 years, and recently entered the top 10 alma maters of State Duma deputies of the 8th convocation, so such meetings at our venue are highly symbolic," said Vladimir Stroyev.

Next, Andrei Tsybin, secretary of the district branch of United Russia and prefect of the South-Eastern Administrative District, delivered a report. He emphasized the significant work Pyotr Tolstoy does for the residents of the South-Eastern Administrative District and noted the large-scale humanitarian work carried out by the district.

"Despite his position in the State Duma, Pyotr Olegovich also works on the district team; he's close to our needs and our problems. Every district head feels his support and turns to him for help. Furthermore, despite his busy schedule, Pyotr Tolstoy participates in humanitarian convoys and in aiding SVO participants, which is especially important today," said Andrey Tsybin.

Pyotr Tolstoy spoke to residents about the tasks accomplished during his tenure in the State Duma, noted the influence of the geopolitical situation on the agenda, and emphasized the importance of supporting not only the SVO participants but also their families.

"I see familiar faces in the audience; we've been in touch with many of them for over 10 years. And during this time, not only our district, but Moscow and all of Russia have changed dramatically. After the start of the special military operation, it was important to support the president's choice, the country's choice as a sovereign power, ready to fight for its freedom and independence. And I want to thank everyone who has been supporting those on the front lines and their families living in our district for several years now. We must remember these people and their heroism. This has been the main theme for me and my supporters over the past four years," emphasized Pyotr Tolstoy.

During the meeting, representatives from various districts and individual residents discussed the issues addressed with the deputy's direct involvement and shared their vision for the district's future development.

At the end of the meeting, Pyotr Tolstoy announced that he would run for the State Duma in the upcoming elections.

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

On March 11, the State University of Management hosted an interactive lecture from LG Electronics.

Over 100 first-year students from the State University of Management's Institute of Marketing attended a creative meeting titled "Optimism and Inspiration as the Key to Successful Communications" with Tatyana Shakhnes, the company's senior PR/ESG director in Russia.

The central theme of the lecture was public relations and the role of professionalism in building communications between a brand and society. Particular attention was paid to how modern companies can not only communicate their products and technologies but also support and initiate social projects, setting a positive agenda.

The expert emphasized that in the era of the attention economy, sincerity, emotional engagement, and meaningful content are becoming key tools for effective and long-term dialogue with society.

In her speech, the lecturer also presented a new book, "25 Years of Communications," which draws together 25 years of Baltic Weekend's best cases. The publication includes one of the most significant industry projects promoting blood donation—LG's social initiative, aimed at developing a culture of this noble volunteer movement.

Using examples of the company's communications initiatives, the students were shown how a combination of creativity, a relevant agenda, and collaboration with opinion leaders from various fields helps generate lasting audience interest. During the session, the participants divided into teams and discussed the similarities between advertising and public relations, and what aspects are unique to each industry.

At the end of the meeting, Tatyana Shakhnes invited students to participate in a creative assignment: try their hand at being public relations specialists and develop their own communications projects.

As a reminder, LG Electronics' first lecture at the State University of Management took place in 2022, the year the company's educational marathon kicked off. To date, more than 300 events have been held as part of this initiative.

"The hardest thing is to demand of oneself": Anton Makarenko's 138th birthday

Translation. Region: Russian Federation –

Source: Official website of the State –

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

On March 13, 1888, one of the greatest educators of the 20th century, Anton Makarenko, was born.

Since childhood, he was a sickly child, he loved books most of all, and had little contact with his family.

In 1904, he graduated from a four-grade school in Kremenchuk, and in 1905, he completed a one-year pedagogical course, after which he worked for several years as a teacher in various institutions, and in parallel, in 1917, he graduated with honors from the Poltava Teachers' Institute.

Makarenko and the street children

As a result of World War I, the Revolution, and the Civil War, a huge number of street children appeared in the USSR: according to various estimates, between 4.5 and 7 million. Special colonies were established everywhere to educate and resocialize these juvenile delinquents, many of which evolved into communes.

Since 1920, Anton Makarenko directed a labor colony for street children and juvenile delinquents in the village of Kovalivka near Poltava. He named it after the writer Maxim Gorky, with whom he corresponded. In 1928, the colony was visited by the writer himself, who later called Makarenko a "great teacher."

The teacher's approach truly bore fruit: most of the children who ended up in the colony earned an honest living and never returned to criminal activity.

He shared his experience in raising difficult teenagers in his "Pedagogical Poem," which was named one of the ten most significant books on education of the 20th century and translated into dozens of languages. Anton Makarenko himself was recognized by UNESCO as one of the greatest educators of the 20th century.

Makarenko's educational system

Anton Makarenko was the first in world pedagogy to place the collective as a living system with a complex internal structure, traditions, and prospects at the center of the educational process.

A key element of the collective was the system of self-government. The colonists were divided into squads of 10-12 people, each squad electing a leader. The commanders formed a council that decided the most important issues. This system worked because it was based on the principle of responsibility. Every colonist was both a leader and a subordinate. One day you were a squad leader, the next, a rank-and-file soldier. This is how the understanding was born: power is not a privilege, but a service.

One of Makarenko's key discoveries is the principle of "parallel pedagogical action." Instead of influencing an individual student, the teacher influences the group, and the group influences the individual.

A second integral part of their upbringing was shared labor. The colony was located outside the city and was almost entirely self-sufficient. The teenagers themselves plowed the land, planted and harvested crops, carried out repairs and construction, and landscaped the grounds. However, there was no focus on labor alone. Makarenko believed that the integration of academic, work, social, athletic, and even aesthetic activities was crucial to their upbringing.

Moreover, Anton Makarenko was one of the first to understand the educational value of traditions. A whole set of customs developed in his colonies: ceremonial assemblies, the first sheaf festival, special dress codes, rituals for welcoming newcomers and seeing off graduates.

Traditions created an emotional memory for the collective, bonded generations of colonists, and fostered a sense of belonging to a special community. When a former street child donned a colonist uniform, they acquired a new identity—they ceased to be "nobodies" and became part of the collective.

Makarenko's pedagogical legacy continues to influence the Russian education system and student management. Today, many educational institutions build their work on the principles of collectivism, self-governance, and the development of the personal qualities of each student.

Senator Dmitry Rogozin's visit to the State University of Management: New Opportunities for Cooperation

Translation. Region: Russian Federation –

Source: Official website of the State –

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

On March 12, 2026, Dmitry Rogozin, member of the Federation Council Committee on Defense and Security, Senator of the Russian Federation, and head of the Bars-Sarmat Special Purpose Center (volunteer, unmanned systems), visited the State University of Management.

The guest met with Vladimir Stroyev, Rector of the State University of Management, and Vice-Rectors Dmitry Bryukhanov, Maria Karelina, and Pavel Pavlovsky to discuss potential areas of cooperation and joint projects.

"We regularly visit new territories. In 2025, we delivered humanitarian aid three times, met with the leadership of local universities, and held events with the VSKS. Our scientists assist individual combat units with technical documentation, new developments, and so on. We assist several universities with their education, offering distance learning courses at some, and we also collaborate in the scientific field. Now is the time when we need to help our people, wherever they are," Vladimir Stroyev emphasized.

"The university's commitment to helping SVO participants both during and after their service is deeply respectful. I see common ground between the Bars-Sarmat Center for Specialized Research and the State University of Management in the development of unmanned technologies and robotics, the implementation of digital solutions for monitoring infrastructure and territories, and continuing education and employment for SVO participants," noted Dmitry Rogozin.

The parties agreed to create a working group to develop specific joint projects.

The senator then addressed the students of the State University of Management, discussing his work experience, his involvement in the SVO, and the unique volunteer unit he currently leads, "Bars-Sarmat," which focuses on remote warfare—the use of air, land, sea, and river drones, electronic warfare systems, and optical-electronic reconnaissance.

"We are at the forefront of scientific and technological development and specialize in combat testing of new technological developments. About 20% of our personnel are women. Although I don't think it's entirely right to have women in war, they were highly motivated, and we gave them the opportunity to prove themselves and take revenge on the enemy. They have become unique fighters, of whom we are proud," Dmitry Rogozin concluded his speech to the students.

Following this, the students were shown a film about service in modern unmanned forces—two episodes about the Bars-Sarmat Center for Special Operations, produced by the Az'efilm film company. The guest, accompanied by representatives of the GUU rector's office, went on a campus tour, which included visits to the media center, the RUMTS, the Engineering Project Management Center, the RosGeoTech Unmanned Aircraft Systems Laboratory, the Digital Technologies in Mechanical Engineering Laboratory, and the Moscow branch of the VSKS. The member of the Federation Council Committee on Defense and Security was particularly interested in the engineering developments of GUU scientists, which he praised and invited them to return the visit to the Bars-Sarmat Center.

In addition, the rector's office of the State University of Management announced the opening of the Information Center for Unmanned Systems Troops and Assistance to the Air Defense Forces.
