On Friday, February 16, more than fifty 8th grade students and teachers from the AGBU Manoogian-Demirdjian school in Los Angeles visited Fresno State.
They met with Armenian Studies Prof. Barlow Der Mugrdechian, who explained to students about the Genocide Monument, which sits impress-ively in the heart of the Fresno State campus. It is the first and only Armenian Genocide monument of its kind on a university campus in the United States.
The Monument contains many symbols and themes design-ed to educate, inspire, and commemorate the martyrs of the Armenian Genocide.
The pillars represent the historic Armenian provinces where the Genocide took place.
