    American University of Armenia (AUA) class of 2012 commencement
    exercises took place in Yerevan on Saturday.

    The AUA President, Trustees, the class of 2012, parents and guests
    were present at the 20th ceremony.

    In his address AUA President Bruce Boghosian said that the founding of
    the University `was a bold move.' He stressed that development of the
    University fell on difficult time in Armenia's history - the collapse
    of the USSR, the Karabakh war and other developments. However, due to
    hard work and sacrifice of the founders the University was developing.

    Boghosian, as a third president of AUA, expressed hope that the
    University would provide educational opportunities for all those who
    are eager to receive it.

    `The University is a product of partnership of the Armenian
    government, University of California and the Armenian General
    Benevolent Union,' he said also expressing gratitude to Armenia's
    Ministry of Education and Science for its assistance despite all
    political and economic changes.

    The graduates and guests also addressed the gathered. In his turn, Dr.
    Armen Ter-Kiureghian read the greeting from the University of
    California.

    The overall number of the AUA graduates exceeded 2200.
