Ani Kardashian, The Stanford Daily, April 15, 2005
"The burgeoning interest among the undergraduate population in genocide affairs is a small step toward galvanizing national action against these recent crimes against humanity.

Megan Dickerson, Daily Bruin, February 23, 1998
"Kassakhian says that showing a variety of styles by artists of different ages was the best way to give the general public a glimpse into Armenian culture.
