A tour of the Faculty building was arranged for our students on April 18th, with a lecture regarding its history, present activities and plans for the future.

On the next day, the students had a chance to visit the Legislative Assembly of Saint Petersburg (Законодательное Собрание Санкт-Петербурга), while the conference was opened on April 20th.
The first conference day was devoted to highly interesting lectures (master-classes) of distinguished professors. On the next day, after another brief lecture in Russian, followed the presentations of student papers, as well as discussion. Every group of students was assigned a mentor, who led the discussions and commented upon all papers, and then every paper was discussed among the other participants.
The conference was closed by a certificate award ceremony, which was attended by the Dean of the State University of Saint Petersburg Faculty of Law, Sergey Alexandrovich Belov (Сергей Александрович Белов).
