  • Explore a timely, free, 2024 book! Invisible University for Ukraine (IUFU) is an initiative of Central European University that began in Spring 2022, only months after Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine. Since that time, nearly 1,000 Ukrainian students have taken online and on-site courses taught by hundreds of faculty from across Europe and beyond. The program's objective is to help sustain intellectual growth in the midst of incredible hardships, with coursework designed to mitigate the effects of the war on students' academic development and provide a framework to push back against autocracy. This volume recognizes the initiative of IUFU's organizers and its students, describes their work to sustain democracy, and outlines their innovative educational model developed in the face of ongoing war. For this important work, they are the recipients of the 2024 Brown Democracy Medal from the McCourtney Institute for Democracy. Thank you Cornell University Press! #openaccess #

  • Today we celebrate The University of St. Thomas and The Center for Irish Studies for participating in our S2O program with their journal New Hibernia Review. In March 1996, the university formally established the Center for Irish Studies. Since then, St. Thomas has flourished as a national presence for scholarship and programs devoted to Irish culture, literature and the arts. Its Irish roots can be found throughout campus, including the widely-recognized New Hibernia Review and the Lawrence O'Shaughnessy Award for Poetry, as well as the Celtic Collection, which was started back in 1917. The Center for Irish Studies advances teaching and scholarship in Irish studies for students, faculty and friends of the university through its publications, instruction and public programs. The Center enriches the international dimensions of education at St. Thomas and affirms the many historic and contemporary bonds between the university, Ireland, and the Irish-American community.
