… Координаты организации можно?

… Классно! Молодцы!

… Что-то как-то позорно мало …

… молодцы, поддерживают родной вуз не на словах, а на деле …

… Отлично! Когда разбогатею, тоже буду помогать родному НГУ!

The next Silicon Valley: Siberia (Fortune Magazine)

2007-03-27T14:15:00.000-07:00

A tech boom is giving life to a former Soviet center for science. IBM, Intel - and even Oprah - are paying attention.

(Fortune Magazine) -- Time passes slowly in Novosibirsk. In front of the opera house on Red Prospect, skateboard kids skid off the plinth of the Lenin statue. The tilting chimneys of roadside hovels, rusted auto husks and sludge-slicked bus shelters appear to have been slouching into poses over many decades.
At the boat hotel on the Ob River, the cook does not hurry with the kasha. The capital of Siberia, Russia's third-largest city, Novosibirsk in winter offers few explicit charms.
But travel beyond the casinos of downtown, past wild dogs patrolling wild weeds, past Tajik road crews in orange jump suits, and a hub of activity rises from the woodland. Here, capitalist opportunity has overcome post-Soviet drear.

Добрый день, уважаемые Друзья НГУ!

Официально подтверждаю получение спонсорских средств Вашего фонда наподдержку физического факультета в сумме $2,445 и выражаю искреннююпризнательность за помощь.

Сообщаю также, что у нас наконец-то появилась семейная пара ФФ + ФЕН: 15сентября зарегистрировали брак студент 4 курса ФФ Алексей Сергеевич Васильев(кафедра физики полупроводников) и студентка 4 курса ФЕН Ольга Андреевна Жукова.

Два последних перевода Андрея и Елены Серых на поддержку такой пары мы ранее не потратили, и сейчас предполагаем помочь Алексею и Ольге из этих средств.

NGU students at Fermi Lab: update

2006-10-09T19:17:00.000-07:00

The students are doing well in Fermilab. A week ago, there was a meeting where they presented short summaries of their work (the photo was taken after the meeting and shows them + a couple of students from MPhTI with several advisers). Most of them have made longer presentations at the department meetings.

It becomes cold in Chicago; it's time for them to return to the sunny Siberia ...

Три дня Юности

2006-09-07T16:46:00.000-07:00

Письмо от президента НГОО Ассоциация выпускников и друзей ФЕНа НГУ Евгения Печковского:

Ассоциация выпускников и друзей ФЕНа НГУ организует фестиваль «ФЕНикс», или «Три дня Юности!»
28 сентября - 1 октября 2006г.
место проведения Фестиваля – ДК «ЮНОСТЬ», Академгородок Полная информация - на сайте www.fen-club.ru .

Далее, как- нибудь хотелось организовать интернет-мост между Американской диаспорой и НГУ, можно и пофакультетно. Мы попробовали, но не нашли с той стороны организатора точки доступа. Люди готовы поодному выходить на связь, а съехаться в одно место им трудно, а жаль. Видел такой проект в Томске на МБФе - очень впечатляет - на площаде на большом экране час живого общения через океан...

Friends of the NSU site is back online!

How to make a donation

2005-03-18T09:10:00.000-08:00

You can make a donation by mailing a check (or money order) payable to "Friends of the Novosibirsk University" to

Friends of the Novosibirsk State University

You can also donate via Paypal. Start by clicking this buton:

At the same time, please send a description of how you want your donation to be used by the University. You can choose one of our "traditional" ways(for needs of the Physics Department at dean's office's discretion, for scholarships, for purchasing of a lab equipment etc.) or propose your own.

PayPal account

2004-12-30T18:17:00.000-08:00

We got a PayPal account and now you can use that instant payment system to send your donations. Just click the icon in the corner and follow the instructions. PayPal is a great way to send money. It's safe, simple, secure and instant. Also you can link your PayPal account and a credit card. Sounds to be good to be true? Well, there is a catch. PayPal's Standard Rate pricing is 2.9% + $0.30 USD for domestic U.S. transaction. So if you think it worths 3% - go ahead! Thank you and Happy New Year!

A donation is on it's way! $2,588.76!

2004-12-16T18:19:00.000-08:00

The latest news

2004-11-27T18:20:00.000-08:00

We’ve got a lot of news to share this time!
First off, we are doing well and there are a lot of things going on.
-We are planning to send our next donation in December, please mail your checks to Friends of the NSU, 6155 Homer Ct, Pleasanton, CA 94588 if you want to participate. Since we are recognized as a non-profit corporation, it’s likely the donations will be tax deductible, please consult with your tax advisor.
- Microsoft match program. Microsoft is well known for its community support programs. One of the programs matches all employees’ charitable donations, dollar per dollar. A group of NSU graduates from Microsoft is taking advantage of the program to support MMF and FF. Great job!
- As I mentioned above, we are sending donations not only to FF but to MMF also.
- We are working on improving the feedback process. We encourage all recipients to send us a brief e-mail with a confirmation. This is not a replacement to our current reporting process but an addition. The goal is to get a better feel and make sure there is a close connection between the donors and the recipients. I’ll post some of the replies under forum section of the site.
Overall, we’re doing well. As always, we want to thank all our donors for their generous support. You contributions do make a difference and are being appreciated! Thank you!
