One of the most important events of the "75th anniversary of the Republic" celebrations was the "Republic Walk." The activity took place in every province of Turkey on October 25 at 10 a.m. In Ankara, the walk was between Hippodrome and Anıtkabir (Mauseloum). Big crowds of people from every part of our society joined the walk as if a cross-section sample of Turkey was walking.
It was indeed a pleasure and a matter of pride for an handful of students, faculty members, administrators and their families from Bilkent University who joined the walk. In the meantime, it was a disappointment because there was not enough participation either by the students or the faculty.
Thanks to those who joined the walk and displayed a responsible behavior.
