"And why did you say you went to your party?" (portal "Youth Smolensk", April 2015)

In the first half of the 80-ies, at the peak of development in the USSR of this movement, the total number of construction crew SF MEI was about 1400 people. But only for construction projects in Smolensk region in the period of the third labour semester I have worked up to twelve thousand students from different republics.
Then, it seemed, student construction brigade movement has sunk into oblivion. But in 2010, FGC UES of Russia began to revive. In 2012, the SF MEI created the first after a long breakprofile unit "power", which went to Rostov-na-Donu – to reconstruct the substation substation R-4.



"This was the beginning of a new story mtrs in our Institute, – says a member of the Council for educational work Natalia Starodubceva. Next year "the power", whose numbers rose from 12 to 20 people, worked in St.-Petersburg (at substation 220/110 kV "Factory of Ilyich"). And in 2014, under the auspices of the branch of JSC "IDGC of Center" - "Smolenskenergo" our group of 28 men worked at power plants of Smolensk. Detachment good reputation: every employment season, employers say guys with diplomas, letters of thanks and valuable gifts. And in creative competitions according to the results of labor terms "power" is able to Shine in 2013 – video squad took 1st place at the festival of the MTR in Sochi".



First squad leader – student, Department of electrical power systems Oleg Vasilashko – led the squad for two seasons. In 2014, the leadership of the party crossed to the student of the same DepartmentArtem Parshukova.



"Had a great worry, is recognized Artyom. For the first time in three years worked in the city, where we – every day for all to see. But the boys did not disappoint, and our curators of "Smolenskenergo" promptly helped in solving problems. For me, three years in the squad – the most full time. This is a new professional and social experience, very interesting meetings with people who ask you the bar high for personal growth. Whatever may be said about today's youth, she, like all times, is different. And movement of the MTR helps any participant to reveal their best qualities. It was nice when the head of JSC "rosseti" Oleg Budargin said in an interview: "When we started to revive the MTR, I was thinking: who among the current young is it necessary? They were not what we were. And today I'm talking about those young: Yes, they are better than us!" So we will continue this positive tradition. I am sure that in the new labour season, we are, soldiers of the MTR will be more. And for many beginners-students will become familiar and intelligible to the words of our hymn: "why did you say you went to your party? And who, say, is it necessary? And I think living with those guys for me like a big reward."
