May 7 in the university will bring together his graduates and teachers. At 10:00 at the meeting of the Academic Council of the University will award the best employees and students. At 12:00 the sports relay race will start among the students of the military department and the military educational center of the university. Then flowers will be laid at the monument to Popov. Last year, on Radio Day in RGRSTU, a capsule with wishes to descendants was opened, which was laid 50 years ago in the university. "Letters to students of the XXI century" were written in 1967. The capsule was immured in the wall on the first floor of the building. It took a lot of time and energy to extract it. At the same time, dozens of people were present who managed to squeeze into the premises. After extracting letters from the capsule, they were read aloud on the porch by students: "Dear comrades! - read the message. - We, the participants of the student conference "50 years of Soviet radio engineering", held May 13, 1967 in the assembly hall of the RRTI, we send you our students' greetings to students of the 21st century. We gathered to sum up the development of Soviet radio engineering in 50 years. We hope that you will also sum up the results, but for a hundred years already, and evaluate how Soviet radio technology has moved forward. Our Ryazan Radio Engineering Institute was founded in 1952. Now, it only trains about 5,000 students in the daytime department. There are both evening and correspondence faculties, where 2000-1000 students are trained accordingly. The Institute has five faculties (not counting the evening and correspondence courses), which train engineers in 14 specialties. The faculties are called: radio engineering, electronic engineering, automatics and telemechanics, automatic control systems, and radio equipment design. They unite 31 departments. The institute employs over 500 teachers (mostly young people), among them 120 professors and associate professors. For the years of its existence the Institute has produced about 4500 specialists in the newest branches of technology. They work in almost all cities of our country. Prepares the Institute and scientists through graduate school. We live very interesting. We have good amateur performances, various clubs. Many of us participate in the scientific work of the departments. We love sports, theater, cinema. During the whole academic year we work hard in classrooms, laboratories, reading rooms. In the summer we leave for the collective farms and for the virgin lands, we help build clubs, houses and various structures. This is our work semester. A more complete picture of our life and study will give you the attached photographs and newspapers. We are sure that in 2017 our institute will represent an even larger and more perfect higher educational institution, preparing engineers of the XXI century - a century of new scientific discoveries and achievements. Therefore, we are envious of you, comrades. But you are not particularly conceited and remember that we, and our fathers, by their labor created the great future in which you live. With comradely greetings. " The end of the letter was accompanied by seven unencrypted signatures. Pictures were attached to the letter and the number of the newspaper "Radist" from Friday January 12, 1968. In a separate envelope lay a memo to a first-year student in 1967, which read: "Dear friend! You are accepted into our student family of the RRTI in the significant year of the 50th anniversary of the October Socialist Revolution. Worthy be great this date, with your homeland in the future step, and the title of a student of the sixties with pride wear and honorably justify! ". rzn.info (http://onair.ru/main/enews/view_msg/NMID__69092/) - The programmer, who congratulated Radio Morzianka on the Day, is not afraid of revenge by Zharov The programmer Leonid Evdokimov, who left a witty message with the help of the Morse code on the lock schedule from Roskomnadzor, told Rain that he was not afraid of revenge for his joke from the head of the department, Alexander Zharov. "Well, how?" Technically, there is no reason for revenge, because the IP addresses I used were taken from the same Roskomnadzor unloading, so as not to disturb any connectivity. I do not think that this somehow influenced the reputation of [Zharova]. I do not see any reason for revenge. This is a joke, a holiday, "Evdokimov said, answering the question of journalist Pavel Lobkov. Recall, on the night of May 6 on the schedule of locks Roskomnadzor appeared mysterious picture. If you decipher it with the help of the Morse code, you get the inscription "Digital Resistance". By the end of the day, the full inscription looked like this: "DIGITAL RESISTANCE 5 4 3 2 1 0 VOISTINU POPOV". Thus, the programmer Evdokimov congratulated the signalmen on Radio Day. znak.com (http://onair.ru/main/enews/view_msg/NMID__69116/) * Museum "The Imperial Telegraph Station" Museum in Petrodvorets.
