Chairman of the Russian Professorial Assembly (organizer of the "Professors Forum - 2020") Vladislav Grib noted: « Rector of the year is the first award in the Russian history, when the academic community, the scientific elite of Russia, gives an independent public assessment to rectors. We assessed the rector's contribution comprehensively based on a set of indicators. And we did not assess specific universities, but the personality of their leaders. I am sure that the professorial community’s assessment is often just as important as the departments’ assessment. Rector of Ural State Law University is the undisputed leader of legal education. I have known Vladimir Bublik for a long time as a charismatic and effective leader, a professional with fighting qualities, not only in the figurative sense of the word».
