2 Hye Sharzhoom December 1996 Letters to the Editor Dear Dickran: As you know, I will not be able to attend the 20th Anniversary Banquet of the Armenian Studies Program to be held this coming Sunday, November 10. I nonetheless want to take the opportunity to join with others in the program and in the community in honoring you for your more than 21 years of service to the university and to the field of Armenian Studies. Your many contribution to our institution and to your discipline in the form of programs, professional memberships, endowments, scholarship and publications have brought the Armenian Studies Program to national prominence. We are honored to have you as a faculty member and commend you on your many contributions to scholarship and the campus. Please accept my congratulations and best wishes for being honored at the banquet this year; and please accept my thanks for your many and continuing services to California State University, Fresno. Sincerely, John D. Wejty President California State University, Fresno Dear Friends, Thank you for your invi tation to attend the 20th anniversary of the Armenian Studies Program at Fresno's California State University, on November 10, at which time Dr. Dickran Kouymjian wilt be honored. I regret I will be unable to attend because of prior commitments. However, I did want to express my congratulations to you on this occasion and especially to Dr. Kouymjian, the Director of the Armenian Studies Program. Please extend my very best wishes to him. I wish him continued success in the administration of this important program. . Sincerely, Archbishop Mesrob Ashjian Prelate, Prelacy of the Armenian Apostolic Church New York, New York Dear Friends: It gives me great pleasure to salute Professor Dickran Kouymjian's twentieth anniversary in teaching and research in the field of Armenian Studies. During that period he has made a reange of contributions signal not only in their quality, but in their diversity. Eschewing any narrowly focused or ethnically preoccupied interpretation of Armenology, his scholary work has consistently embraced in- terdisciplinary approaches and sought to contextualize Armenian cultural artifacts within their broader middle Eastern milieu. One is also struck by the variety of areas which have engaged his interest and benefited from his creative insights, numismatics, art history, codicology, late medieval and early modern Armenian history, Saroyanagitut'iwn, the list goes on and on ... Moreover, he has been a popular instructor who has not shrunk from handling innovative and .controversial topics, such as Armenian film and the roots of Armenian terrorism. Nor has the role of the program in Armenian Studies within the local and wider Armenian community been neglected by him, but nurtured with especial care. As you are not one to rest on your laurels, Dickran, in wishing you well on this memorable occasion I want to put you on notice that your colleagues have many more expectations of you in the years ahead. Warmest regards to Angele and yourself, Sincerely, S. Pete Co we UCLA Dear Dickran, It is with great pleasure that, in the name of the Committee and Members of the Association Internationale des Etudes Armeniennes, I congratulate you on a tenure of 20 years at the helm of the Armenian Studies Program at CSU Fresno.
