This special event, celebrating the graduates who reached this historic moment through hard work and dedication, was attended by thousands of parents and family members who came to share this exciting occasion with their sons and daughters.
The hat-throwing ceremony was declared open by the President of the Senate of the University of Tetova, Prof. Dr. Vullnet Ameti. He stated that he would forever show future generations how challenging the journey to knowledge and enlightenment was, and how difficult it was to prevent the fragmentation of this national project that keeps the spirit alive. He highlighted that the achievements of the University of Tetova have exceeded all initial expectations, approaching history from its roots rather than its branches. “I approach history from the founder, Prof. Dr. Fadil Sulejmani, who stands in front of you even today, with his statue still embodying mission and vision. Thus, I invite you to read and learn history through examples, because moments and examples of triumph are rare in our national history – the University of Tetova is one of those moments. Our university has been and will remain a center of knowledge and progress. We have worked tirelessly to offer you not only a quality education but also an environment where you can grow as individuals and as responsible citizens aware of the obligations that await us. The world was not created by receiving but by giving – with this philosophy was created the University, that’s why it is so sacred for us, the People’s University!”- said Prof. Dr. Vullnet Ameti.
