Azerbaijan Leaves Much to be Desired [UCLA]
Haig Hovsepian, Daily Bruin, October 25, 2006
"In the 1980s, the United States supported Iraq, which is another oil-rich, Muslim majority state. Very little attention was paid to the suppression of minorities in this state. Its regime’s disrespect for human rights and its neighbors was conveniently glossed over. The public was encouraged to naively believe it was the perfect partner."

Matt L'heureux, UCSD Guardian, April 20, 2006
"Although the council has technically entered the lame-duck phase of its term after the election of its successor at the end of last week, that did not stop passionate speeches, flared tempers and even tears over a proposed resolution to support the Armenian Genocide Remembrance Week."

Armenian Students Fast, Raise Funds for Darfur
Allison Sovey, Daily Trojan, March 3, 2006
"Though many student groups have been working to relieve the estimated 2.3 million Sudanese citizens in need of emergency aid, this group is unique because all members are Armenian.
'They have felt the effects of the Armenian genocide and relate to the victims of the Darfur violence more than most,' said Vazken Movsesian, the priest of the church and chaplain of the Armenian Student Association at USC."
