Armen Petrosian directs Faculty Services at AUA.
Armen Manukyan also works in Faculty Services. He assisted us in so many ways!
A gathering of a new student organization at AUA.
Elizabeth, Academic VP Lucig Danielian, President Armenian and his wife, Sona, and I together with all of the new AUA faculty that arrived for the Spring term. We are at the Old Erivan restaurant on Tumanyan Street.
The gentleman on the left is Valeri, one of the AUA drivers. He helped us a lot, including giving me a ride to the central post office right after a big snowstorm.
Manuk is one of the AUA security guards. He helped me get into my building when I was locked out my first weekend there. It must have been the hottest night of the whole summer. I am really thankful for his patient assistance.

An AUA student group hosted the director (seated, in black) of the BBC documentary film, “Screamers.” The movie features the music group “System of a Down,” and deals with their efforts to increase awareness of the Armenian genocide. I saw the movie in Yerevan at the Moscow Cinema. For more on the film, visit <http://www.screamersmovie.com>.
