The Lessons We Learn Through Languages, and the Ones IE Does Not

Last week, the university’s management team and BIR office revealed that all language classes next semester will take place only once a week for third-year students, for a grand total of 15 sessions per semester.

Not only is the premise of that statement flawed, but it fails to consider the repercussions of the change.

IE, Where are the Accessible Period Products?

Hitler and Stalin – Putin

Stanislav Vynnytskyi - April 18, 2023

Greek Legislative Elections: New Democracy Leads but Falls Short of Majority

International May 30, 2023 0

On May 21, Greece held its legislative elections. The party led by Kyriákos Mitsotákis, New Democracy (Νέας Δημοκρατίας), emerged as the frontrunner, securing 40.8% of the total vote. In contrast, the left-wing Syriza party received 20.1%, while the Socialist Pasok party garnered 11.7% and the Communists KKE secured 7.1%. Despite New Democracy being in the lead, the party fell short of obtaining the required majority of 45% of the votes. As a result, they claimed 146 seats in Parliament, which is five seats below the threshold of 151 needed for a parliamentary majority.
