Polish-Ukrainian College founded to help recover from historical burden

Rectors of Maria Curie Sklodowski University (UMCS) and Katolicki Unwersytet Lubelski (KUL) signed a founding act for the Polish-Ukrainian European College which will open in Lublin on Oct. 1. "Education bridges are the best way to get over the historical burden," said deputy Education Minister Jerzy Zdrada. Within several years the college is to transform into a European university. Several Ukraine-based universities are engaged in the project. (Gazeta Wyborcza, page 3) A.Z.
