From the very beginning of the existence of the Russian-American Christian University (RACU), we wanted to be clear about who we were. The name was intended to communicate that RACU was bi-cultural – utilizing “best practices” from both the Russian and American educational systems, Christian – meaning that the university was faith-based or Christ-centered, and an institution of higher education – offering the best possible liberal arts and professional education.
