In honor of Radio Day, the city student festival “RadioBOOM” was held in Tomsk. Traditionally, on May 7, TUSUR students throw old TVs and radios out of their dormitory windows.
As the TV2 news agency was previously informed by the TUSUR trade union committee, events within the framework of the festival this year started on May 4. Thus, TUSUR students have already chosen the most prominent beauty of the university at the “Miss TUSUR - 2014” competition; she was 4th year student of the Faculty of Control Systems Anastasia Voronova. Students also competed for the KVN Cup among the university teams.
On May 7, the 2014 FIFA virtual football championship took place on the square near the Palace of Entertainment and Outdoor Sports. There, on the square, at the closing of the evening, a group from St. Petersburg, “Adventures of Electronics,” performed.
Let us add that the event is being held with the support of the radio station “Europe Plus. Tomsk".
For reference: Radio Day is celebrated in Russia on May 7th. On this day in 1895, Russian physicist Alexander Popov demonstrated a radio communication session. This date was first solemnly celebrated in the USSR in 1925, and since 1945 the holiday has been celebrated annually.
