“My dear RGSL, we are begging - keep that spirit of family. Great unity, support, and high common goal makes this place unique. And, believe us, all the future students will desperately need it,” Marks Zujevs, LL.B, graduate of “Law & Business” Bachelor programme of 2019.
"We all are human beings and obviously cannot like every person in the entire world but we did get along all the times when it came to the teamwork. We were never separated, instead, we felt the responsibility and, thus, we proved ourselves to be reliable teammates and friends, ” Sergejs Gorjunovs, LL.B, graduate of “Law & Diplomacy” Bachelor programme of 2019.
We at RGSL are extremely proud of all the graduates and wish them all success in their future endeavours.
