Adygejskij Gosudarstvennyj Pedagogičeskij Institut (Majkop)

"The history of ASU dates back to 1940 when ASU began as Maykop Teachers' Institute (Maikopskii uchitelskii institut)... and later in 1952 became Adyghe Teachers' Training College (Adygeiskii pedagogicheskii institut). By the decree of the President of the Russian Federation, Adyghe State Teachers' Training College (Adygeiskii gosudarstvennyi pedagogicheskii institut) was transformed into Adyghe State University [Adygeiskii gosudarstvennyi universitet] in 1993."
