"Language is the house of being."

(Martin Heidegger)

This time we are going to talk about the language code of the nation. 

"In the beginning was the Word," says the first verse of the Gospel of John (New Testament). Using the native language is natural and comfortable and we don't even think about why we use such words and not others. But it would be worth thinking!

Have you ever thought that computer actions are programmed with language code? So, we can only imagine how the language code affects societies! This time we will talk about the Ukrainian language as a reflection of the worldview of Ukrainians.

Come, discover and travel through the world of Ukrainian language!

Pizza and drinks provided.

This event will be hosted by Tetiana Hranchak, visiting assistant teaching professor, with support from the SU Ukrainian Club.

We’re Turning 100!


To mark our centennial in the fall of 2024, the Maxwell School will hold special events and engagement opportunities to celebrate the many ways—across disciplines and borders—our community ever strives to, as the Oath says, “transmit this city not only not less, but greater, better and more beautiful than it was transmitted to us.”

Throughout the year leading up to the centennial, engagement opportunities will be held for our diverse, highly accomplished community that now boasts more than 38,500 alumni across the globe.
