Professor Harut Barsamian

The Western Prelacy “Harut Barsamian Scholarship Fund” Committee, headed by Western Prelate Archbishop Moushegh Mardirossian, announced that after a thorough review of applications for the 2019 – 2020 academic year, scholarships have been awarded to two students. The students, who are currently obtaining a higher education in the U.S. in the field of Science, were chosen based on their academic achievements and involvement in community life.

This year’s scholarship recipients are Armen Demirjian and Areni Chorbajian, both students at the University of California, Berkeley.

The Committee is comprised of benefactor Tamara Barsamian, Dr. Garo Agopian, and Shakeh Bogharian.

We wish all of our students continued success in their academic endeavors.

WESTERN PRELACY TIVAN

Emil Lazarian: “I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
