On April 29, the 3rd Creative Festival of MCU Student Teams, “Kra.SO.ta v Talantakh” (Beauty in Talents), took place, bringing together 11 student groups. Festival participants presented more than 20 performances in vocal, musical, dance and media categories. The event was attended by over 200 guests, including representatives from the regional headquarters of the Moscow Student Teams and MCU, who served on the jury.
“Two productive months of preparation are behind the participants. They have put in a lot of effort, and we hope you will appreciate their performances, as they truly tried their best. Enjoy the show,” Tatiana Dudareva, Leader of the MCU Student Teams, welcomed the festival’s participants and guests.
“Kra.SO.ta v Talantakh” is an annual April creative festival of MCU student teams, in which all university groups take part. This year, the festival’s theme was an art exhibition. The grand prix winner of the 2026 festival was the student pedagogical team “Molodost” (Youth).
“Thank you, friends! It is such happiness and pleasure to come to your events, to your bright creative festivals. I love and am proud of you!” shared Roza Grosheva, former head of the MSPU counsellor movement, at the awards ceremony. Her support was instrumental in creating the first student teams and launching the Russian Student Teams (RSO) movement at the university.
Russian Student Teams (RSO) is the largest youth labour movement in the country. Every year, hundreds of thousands of young people work within the teams, gaining their first professional experience, earning fair wages, and contributing to economic development. Before the start of the summer work semester, movement participants can receive free training in an additional working profession. Since 2021, more than 170,000 people have taken advantage of this opportunity.
