Welcome to Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ’s celebration of its 20th Anniversary. In only 20 years Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ has become an indispensable institution in Central Asia as it continues to lead and develop leaders for the transformation of the region. Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ At The Museum acknowledges the vision and contribution of all those who have made Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ the best university in Central Asia, and provides a space for everyone to make a small contribution to the future home of Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ as it opens the doors on its next 20 years.
The Exhibits
Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ At The Museum tells the story of Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ in 6 movements:
- Beginnings: Liberal Arts in Central Asia
- Students
- Faculty and Staff
- Alumni
- Bard Partnership
- Future
Each movement displays one aspect of what makes Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ unique: the initial energy and passion of the Kyrgyz-American Faculty; the talented and creative student body; the dedicated and generous faculty and staff; the intrepid and successful alumni; the investment and good faith of Bard College in Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ; and, finally,Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ’s commitment to leading innovation and change both in the region and around the world.
Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ would like to thank all of its local and international supporters for making Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ what it is today, especially the Open Society Foundations and the United States Agency for International Development.
We hope you enjoy Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ At The Museum, and know that your contributions will help Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ to thrive for the next 20 years.
