Support Ukraine
Each year, Manor College is proud to host two Ukraine Dialogue speakers series programs where members of the Manor campus, Ukrainian, Ukrainian-American, and American communities join together to discuss critical political, religious, humanitarian, and other social issues that face Ukraine. The dialogues are in-person and virtual, engaging, purposeful, and compassionate regarding Ukraine and its people.
The Ukrainian Heritage Studies Center (UHSC) was established in 1977 to preserve, promote, and perpetuate Ukrainian culture and traditions through educational and cultural programs. In addition to a folk art collection, the UHSC maintains an extensive Ukrainian library and archives.
